Sri Lanka Vs Australia - Watch it Live...

Live Link: http://espn.go.com/watchespn/index?ex_cid=watchsynd_noauthplayerclick&id=979675 Three teams queue up for semi spot Match facts Monday, June 17, The Oval Start time 1300 (1200 GMT) Big Picture Amid the vexing appearances of rain in the last few days, three of the four teams will nervously wait for the result of the final Group B match. Sri Lanka, who more often than not make it to the knockouts in ICC tournaments, just need a win; if they win big - that is, by about 90 runs in a full 50-over game - they can better England's net run rate and finish top of the group. Australia, who have looked a shadow of their usual selves, need to win by about 125 runs to lift their NRR above that of New Zealand and knock them out. If they bat second and Sri Lanka score 200, Australia will need to chase the target down in about 27 overs. New Zealand, who looked good to make it to the next round till a day ago, need Australia to win but not absolutely thump Sri Lanka. The ...

Dhawan warmed up the cold morning - Champions Trophy

India v South Africa , Champions Trophy, Group B, Cardiff India's new-look ODI team got off to a bumper start, negotiating short-pitched bowling to post 331 and then fielding superbly to pull South Africa back every time they threatened to break away. MS Dhoni squeezed the life out of South Africa's chase with his shrewd employment of spinners - combined figures of R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja and Suresh Raina read 25-1-114-2 - as if this was subcontinent. Overhead, at least, this was far from overhead. It was a cold morning in Wales, South Africa won the toss and asked India to bat first. Cue to bowl short then. Not like South Africa did, though. Apart from Morne Morkel, and in Dale Steyn's absence, none of their bowlers had the sting to trouble the young Indian batsmen. Shikhar Dhawan became only the second left-hand batsman to score a century against South Africa in six years, the 127 that he added with Rohit Sharma was the first hundred opening stand against South ...

Malaysia slips in 2012 Global Peace Index

Image
Malaysia's rankings had slipped from 18 to 29 in Global Peace Index (GPI) for 2012, the Institute of Economics and Peace (IEP) said in a statement on Tuesday. The index comprises 23 indicators which gauge factors — such as on-going domestic and international conflict, safety and security in society, and militarisation — in 158 countries. Five additional countries were added to the index this year, allowing the GPI to cover 99% of the world's population. Although Malaysia's overall index score remained unchanged at 1.5 points — where lower scores indicate a more peaceful representation — the results of some of its indicators have deteriorated. Malaysia's indicator for violent demonstrations was downgraded by 0.5 points to 3.5 points, while its measure for political instability also worsened by 0.5 points to 2.0 points. The index also released results for other factors on top of the baseline 23 indicators, including a measure for freedom of press. Malaysia...
