ICC Twenty20 World Cup 2010 West Indies vs Ireland Live Streaming Match Score

West Indies vs Ireland - Preview

Despite the advantage of being the host, West Indies are not the favourites, when the ICC T20 World Cup begins today. They lost to New Zealand in the warm-up game.

However, players like Chris Gayle, Kieron Pollard, Jerome Taylor and Kemar Roach have the potential to make a big difference, when they come to their own. Pollard is considered as one of the devastating batsman in the world of T20 and he showed his ability in IPL 2010.

Ireland does not stand much chance against the Caribbean team, after their warm-up game loss to Afghanistan. Only a miracle can help them win againstthe West Indies tonight.

West Indies: Chris Gayle, Andre Fletcher, Ramnaresh Sarwan, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Dwayne Bravo, Kieron Pollard, Denesh Ramdin, Darren Sammy, Jerome Taylor, Sulieman Benn, Ravi Rampaul, Wavell Hinds, Narsingh Deonarine, Nikita Miller, Kemar Roach

Ireland Team: William Porterfield, Niall O'Brien, Alex Cusack, Kevin O'Brien, Gary Wilson, Nigel Jones, John Mooney, Trent Johnston, Andrew White, Peter Connell, George Dockrell, Andre Botha, Paul Stirling, Boyd Rankin, Gary Kidd.

Serena Williams named Player of the Year

Serena Williams has been named 2009 WTA player of the year and shared doubles team of the year with sister Venus.

Serena, 28, won last year's Australian Open and Wimbledon singles titles, while also reaching the US Open semi-finals and French Open quarter-finals.
"2009 was one of the best seasons of my career and winning the player of the year award for the third time is a great achievement for me," she told the WTA website after the ceremony in Miami.
"It will always be memorable for me not just for my singles accomplishments, but because Venus and I won four titles together and I am thrilled to be sharing the doubles team of the year award with my sister."
Alongside Venus, Serena captured the 2009 US and Australian Open and Wimbledon women's doubles titles.
"I love playing doubles with Serena as we have so much fun on the court together," said Venus.
"At the beginning of the 2009 season Serena and I decided to put a lot of emphasis on doubles and I am thrilled that we were able to achieve so much together."
Belgium's Kim Clijsters took comeback player of the year honours after her US Open title and won her seventh sportsmanship award from the WTA.
US teen Melanie Oudin, a 2009 US Open quarter-finalist, won newcomer of the year, while Belgian Yanina Wickmayer took most improved player honours and American Liezel Huber won her fourth career player service award.
Russian Elena Dementieva won fan favourite singles player of the year in an internet fan vote.

Tendulkar unveils Dungarpur's portrait at CCI

Mumbai: Batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar today unveiled Raj Singh Dungarpur`s portrait at the Cricket Club of India here and recalled his long association with the late cricket administrator.

"It`s an emotional moment for me. I was associated with Rajbhai for a long time and today it gives me immense pleasure to see Rajbhai`s portrait here," said the champion batsman after unveiling Dungarpur`s portrait at the main hall of the CCI.

Tendulkar also recalled with gratitude all the help he had received as a young boy from Dungarpur in fulfilling his dream of playing for the country.

"I was very close to him from my schooldays and he was among those instrumental for giving me the opportunity to play for the country. You may have talent but it needs the right platform and Rajbhai was instrumental in providing it," said Tendulkar. 


It was under Dungarpur`s stint as the chief selector that Tendulkar was chosen for the first time to play for India as a member of the team that toured Pakistan in 1989.

The batting great also remembered that Dungarpur was instrumental in sending him to England in 1986 (with the Star Cricket Club managed by former Rajasthan pacer Kailash Gattani).

He also rued that when Test cricket returned to the Brabourne Stadium owned by CCI after a long gap, Dungarpur was not alive to see his dream come true. "It was his dream that Test cricket returned to CCI. We played a Test against Sri Lanka here (in December last) but unfortunately Rajbhai had passed away. But I`m sure he would have watched us play from somewhere," Tendulkar said.

Australia make flying start to world track cycling championships

Melbourne: Cameron Meyer won the men's points race for the second year running as Australia got off to a flying start at the world track cycling championships on Wednesday.
His compatriot Anna Meares earlier won the women's 500 metres time trial, the first medal of the five-day championships. 
Germany won the men's team sprint, ending France's four-year domination of the event, while Britain failed to reach the final in a major upset and had to be content with bronze. 
Sarah Hammer of the United States won the women's individual pursuit in the day's other final, beating Britain's Wendy Houvenaghel. 
Meyer, 22, destroyed the field as he won the 160-lap points race with 70 points, followed by Peter Schep of Netherlands with 33 and Milan Kadlec of Czech Republic with 27. 


The event features 24 riders and points are awarded during the race for the winners of 16 intermediate sprints and also if a rider laps the main field.

Meares won the time trial for the third time to add to the titles she won in Melbourne in 2004 and Palma three years ago.

Titleholder Simona Krupeckaite of Lithuania, racing last, finished second and Olga Panarina of Belarus was third.

Britain, firm favourites to win the men's team sprint, could manage only the third fastest time in qualifying, although they easily beat China for the bronze medal.

Chris Hoy was in the British team, returning to the Ballerup track where he suffered a serious crash 13 months ago which forced him to miss the last world championships.
