Watch India vs South Africa 2015 Paytm Series Live Streaming

While the T20 series went to South Africa, the Paytm ODI series was evenly matches. Thanks to some great competitive cricket from the two teams and equal contribution from sporting tracks. Some tweaks in the ODI rules have worked in favour of the bowlers and provided an even face off between bat and ball. The Paytm Freedom Series (Mahatma Gandhi-Nelson Mandela series) continues with a promise of some great cricket ahead. Watch India vs South Africa 2015 cricket series live streaming and telecast on Star Sports and HotStar with live Hindi and English commentary.

India faces South Africa in Mumbai for the final ODI. A series leveled at 2-2 is always fascinating. The score line proves how tough the series has been played so far. With the likes of Virat Kohli, JP Duminy, Rohit Sharma, AB de Villiers and many more to name; the batting has been as innovative and entertaining as possible. Bowlers like R Ashwin, Rabada, Steyn, Morkel and Harbhajan have added to the success of this series so far. And one can expect some great fielding from the youngsters of these two teams.

Both the teams would play with maximum pride in the test series which begins soon after the conclusion of the ODI series. The test series schedule is mentioned below:


5 to 9 November 2015 - 1st Test match, Mohali (9:30am IST)


14 to 18 November 2015 - 2nd Test match, Bangalore (9:30am IST)



25 to 29 November 2015 - 3rd Test match, Nagpur (9:30am IST)

3 to 7 December 2015 - 4th Test match, Delhi (9:30am IST)


With four test matches ahead, we can expect a lot of quality cricket. This is the format of the game where the characters of these cricketers would be tested. With lot of T20 cricket being played around, there is a lack of patience in the players. This is where they are really tested in the format of test cricket. But we all know how well the likes of Amla, Kohli, AB de Villiers, etc flourish when it comes to the longest format of the game.

Virat Kohli will head the team while Amla will handle it on the other side. The head to head test record for these two teams is as follows:

India vs South Africa - Total 29 test matches
India won - 7
South Africa won - 13
Draw - 9

Likes of Ajinkya Rahane and Virat Kohli from the Indian corner have played just two test matches against South Africa. While the home team would lack experience, they would also cherish the tough competition from South Africa. This series is surely going to be a nail biter. Do watch it live on HotStar and Star Sports in India. 

Update - India vs Pakistan series is likely to go ahead. After that India tours to Australia. Later we have India vs Sri Lanka series followed by Asia Cup, T20 World Cup and IPL 2016. Watch T20 World Cup 2016 Live streaming, India vs Australia 2016 live streaming and all other series live on HotStar, Star Sports, Ten Sports, Ten Cricket, etc. We will keep you updated with all the T20 cricket action! 

Watch RCB vs CSK Live Streaming - 2nd Qualifier IPL 2015

Chennai Super Kings is a team that teaches you how to win consistently and come out with the best during crunch games. Royal Challengers Bangalore is a team that will make any other IPL team envious about their batting line up. These two teams lock horn today at Ranchi to find a place in the final match against Mumbai Indians at the Eden Gardens. Enjoy this great tussle live on TV channels like Sony Six and Sony Max with live Hindi and English commentary. If you prefer watching live cricket streaming online, tune into Star Sports HD website or enjoy it live on mobile through HotStar mobile app.

Chennai Super Kings have reached the IPL finals five times in last seven editions and every single time they have reached the top four slots. That proves their dominance. As far as the title wins are concerned, they have clinched two IPL and two CLt20 titles so far. On the other hand Royal Challengers Bangalore managed to reach the finals twice but they had to be happy being runners up.

Looking at the historic numbers, crowd support and capability of team to perform in play offs; CSK is the ideal favourite to win here at Ranchi. But it is equally important to look at the current form of the teams. Although CSK topped the points table this year, but they could win just three out of their last eight matches. On the contrary RCB has won five matches. So the momentum is with Royal Challengers Bangalore. Similar was the story when CSK locked horns with MI at Wankhede in the first qualifier. MI had a better momentum which lead them to the finals.

It would be interesting to see how CSK can cope up with the absence of their master blaster Brendon McCullum. With his quick starts the team was able to capitalise and build big scores. Michael Hussey has played just to matches and he is yet to find his feet. If he proves to be an equally good replacement for Brendon, one can expect wonders from CSK. As far as bowling is concerned, Ashish Nehra, Negi, Ashwin, Bravo and Jadeja will have to pass a litmus test against the likes of Gayle, AB de Villiers and Virat.

The batting trio can demolish any bowling line ups of the T20 cricket. If these three would get going, CSK would face tough times at Ranchi. But if the CSK bowlers can contain these three on a lower score, things would be much easier for them. On the other hand, RCB have some good bowlers like Mitchell Starc, Aravind, Chahal, etc who could maximum discomfort Smith, Raina, Hussey, Dhoni and company.

RCB has lost their last three matches against CSK. Will they be able to break their losing streak tonight? Let us wait and watch! 

While ICC T20 world cup 2016 live streaming would begin on Star Sports next year, enjoy India vs South Africa 2015 live streaming before the T20 world cup.

KKR vs SRH and RCB vs CSK Live Streaming Today!

Did you guys watch the match last night? Tied result followed by a fantastic super over! That is the beauty of IPL. We now move on to a double header today. Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Chennai Super Kings. Watch IPL 2015 matches live streaming on HotStar live match app and Star Sports website. Enjoy live telecast in India on Sony Six, Set Max and Sony Pix with live Hindi and English commentary.

Sunrisers Hyderabad play at Visakhapatnam today to end their home matches with a win. But achieving it against defending champions KKR won't be easy. KKR have played like champs and stay steady on third position with six points. They have chased pretty well in last two matches. Talking about the last one, they restricted hosts Delhi Daredevils to 146 and chased the target easily.

Sunrisers need to rely a lot on openers Shikhar Dhawan and David Warner. Although these two have played well the team has lost close encounters. Its not that the team hasn't been competitive. But they haven't been upto the mark to win close finishes. With a good bowling line up, the batsmen need to give them bigger totals to defend.

The other match for the day comprises of two high profile teams. The biggest similarity between these two teams is the big hitters they boast of. Brendon McCullum, Dwayne Smith, Raina, Dhoni and Faf du Plessis form a good batting line up for CSK. Whereas Gayle, AB de Villiers and Kohli make RCB batting pretty formidable. 

RCB will enjoy the home conditions here at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Mitchell Starc will add a lot of strength to the bowling line up. While both these teams have lost their last matches, they would look badly for a win tonight. CSK must be ready to pull up their socks after their first defeat in IPL 2015 against KKR.

Two big matches lined up for the day. The first begins at 4pm IST while the second will kick off at 8pm IST. Enthralling day for T20 lovers. Enjoy!

Kings XI Punjab vs Delhi Daredevils Live Streaming - IPL 2015 Match 10

While Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings are on a march to win all the matches they play, there are still teams who are yet to win a match. Today we will see Delhi Daredevils face Kings XI Punjab at MCA Stadium in Pune. Watch live streaming of this match in India on HotStar live app and Star Sports official and mobile website. Watch live telecast of IPL 2015 matches on Sony Six, Sony Pix and Set Max (Sony Max) with live Hindi, Telugu, Bengali, Tamil and English commentary.

Kings XI Punjab pitches a strong team that looked unbeatable last year. This year they started off their IPL campaign with a 26 runs defeat against Rajasthan Royals. They played their second match against Mumbai Indians and registered a good win. 

A team that has a line up full with match winners would again look to dominate the IPL this year. The team has lot of hopes from the blaster Glenn Maxwell. But he is yet to click in the IPL 2015 season. Since Sandeep Sharma and Anureet Singh are clinching wickets, Mitchell Johnson should feel free to experiment or just bowl with sheer fast pace!

Delhi Daredevils will play their third match. They are yet to win a game. They had dismal performances in last two years. This year under the captaincy of Dumminy, this team would certainly like to reach the knock outs. 

Likes of Yuvraj Singh and JP Dumminy make the batting line up look strong. But they can taste success only if these two hit form! Shami and Zaheer Khan are believed to be unfit and unavailable for today's match. A lot relies of Imran Tahir and Amit Mishra in this match to contain the hard hitting Punjab players.

Toss would play a major role and 12 out of 18 times team batting first have won here at Pune. Team batting first would like to score above 160 to be in safe zone here at the MCA stadium.

Stay tuned with us for more match previews and reviews.

CSK vs SRH and RCB vs KKR Live Streaming

Super Saturday brings a double header! The mighty Chennai Super Kings face Sunrisers Hyderabad in the first match today. Royal Challengers Bangalore challenge the defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders in the second match. Watch IPL 2015 live streaming on Hot Star mobile app and Star Sports official website. Watch live telecast of these matches in India on Sony Six, Sony Max (Set Max) and Sony Pix with live commentary in Hindi and English.

Chepauk Stadium will host the first match that begins at 4pm Indian Standard Time. Chennai Super Kings clinched a one run win over Delhi Daredevils that doesn't bring too much of contentment to MS Dhoni. Boasting a strong batting line up consisting of Raina, McCullum, Faf du Plessis, Smith and Dhoni couldn't score more than 150. Some good fielding and bowling gave them a narrow win! They need to pull up their socks to provide an optimum performance.

Sunrisers Hyderabad have seen a bit of overhaul with David Warner now leading the side. He will open with Shikhar Dhawan. They have other good batters like Eoin Morgan and Kane Williamson. They have a strong batting line up to test the skills of Chennai batsmen. Dale Steyn, Ishant Sharma, Praveen Kumar, Bhuvaneshwar Kumar and Trent Boult can give nightmares to any opposition.

The second match comprises of defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders and one of the most fancied teams Royal Challengers Bangalore. The match will begin at 8pm IST.

Kolkata Knight Riders would love to continue their winning run with one of the openers sticking to the crease and middle order taking care of the acceleration. Gambir, Uthappa and Manish Pandey do a decent job up the order. They have a good bowling line up with Sunil Narine and Morne Morkel.

Royal Challengers Bangalore have lost their last three matches against Kolkata Knight Riders. RCB players need to come up with brilliant performance to go past the defending champions. Virat Kohli, Chris Gayle and AB de Villiers are good enough to face any bowling line up in the IPL. They would miss the absence of Mitchell Starc but they still have good bowlers like Sean Abbott, Adam Milne and Varun Aaron.

Let us see which two teams out of these four strong contenders come up as winners!

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Mumbai Indians - IPL 2015 Match 1

Watch KKR vs MI Live Streaming
The stage is set to kick off the Indian Premier League's 2015 edition. And what a way to embark on the IPL 2015 edition - a match at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata between IPL 2015 champions Kolkata Knight Riders and IPL 2013 champions Mumbai Indians. Watch KKR vs MI (Kolkata Knight Riders vs Mumbai Indians) live streaming on Star Sports official website and its mobile version. Watch live telecast of KKR vs MI match on Sony Six and Sony Max (Set Max) TV channels with Hindi and English commentary. One can also enjoy live streaming of this match on mobile by using HotStar app.

Kolkata Knight Riders being the defending champions would eye their third ever IPL title this year. They have retained most of their players and added few good ones to give the team management better options for selection. With the likes of Kallis and Wasim Akram in the coaching staff, the players would have a lot to learn and implement.

Mumbai Indians clinched the title in 2013 and last year they were eliminated by Chennai Super Kings in the eliminator match. Even here most of the old players have been retained. The big one to go back again to the CSK team is Michael Hussey. Australian Ricky Ponting who was a part of the squad last year will now be the head coach for MI team. With all the winning experience he brings to the coaching, he would certainly help the team in being firm under pressure situations.

KKR is glad to have Sunil Narine back into the team after clearing out the suspect action clouds. His mystery spin will be a lethal weapon for Gautam Gambhir against all the teams. He also enjoys a strong opening option of Robin Uthappa along with him and Surya Kumar Yadav, Yusuf Pathan, Shakib Al Hasan and Manish Pandey in the middle order. Bowlers like Morne Morkel, Sunil Narine and Shakib Al Hasan will provide a good bowling strength to the team.

MI has an equally good batting line up. Aaron Finch, Unmukt Chand, Rohit Sharma, Kieron Pollard and Corey Anderson play an important role in the batting department. Experience of Lasith Malinga and Harbhajan Singh would be a key with the ball.

Both the teams would look for a positive start to IPL 2015 with a win today. Stay tuned with us for more updates on Pepsi IPL season 8!

RR vs RCB and KKR vs Kings XI - IPL Saturday Double Fun

IPL Live on Star Sports, Go Cricket and Sony Six

How much are you alive? I was almost dead when I saw Chris Lynn taking that blinder to clinch a win for KKR! Absolutely unbelievable catch. Could be easily rated as one of the best catches in cricket history. This is what cricket and IPL is all about. Enjoy the fun further with Rajasthan Royals facing Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kolkata Knight Riders facing Kings XI Punjab. Today's matches would certainly produce further shuffling in the points table. Enjoy IPL 2014 live streaming on Star Sports and Go Cricket. IPL live telecast is available on Sony Six in India.

Rajasthan Royals vs Royal Challengers Bangalore

Both these teams suffered a narrow loss in the previous matches. Rajasthan lost to Chennai by seven runs and RCB lost to similar such match against KKR. But things would be different this time as they would enjoy the leisure to play on best of the three venues in the UAE.

Shane Watson for Rajasthan is inconsistent. People also feel he should come up the order and open the innings. That would lay a quick and solid foundation to the Royals' innings. The Royal think tank can think of sneaking in Cooper or even Unmukt Chand up the batting order.

RCB has a strong batting line up and they would be hopeful of Gayle's return. Kohli, De Villiers and Yuvraj would always be the backbone of their middle order. Bowling wise they can turn tables on Rajasthan Royals. Both teams would strive for a win here to climb up few places in the points table.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Kings XI Punjab

Kolkata pulled out an unbelievable victory while defending an average total against RCB. It seemed it would be an easy win for RCB, but some tight bowling in the end, sluggish batting by Yuvraj and spectacular catch by Lynn dropped the match in KKR's pockets. They would love to carry on with a winning streak from here on as they have the potential to do so. But this time they are up against the strongest performing team of IPL 2014.

Gautam Gambhir is at the lowest of his confidence level after three ducks on the trot. A win in the last match would have provided him great relief after he was plumbed LBW for a naught again. Sunil Narine is doing a great job as usual. Kallis looks in great touch this year with his bat. He doesn't seem to be stopping in any terms.

Kings XI is certainly riding high on success of Maxwell. He has hammered all the opposition bowlers across all parks. Big question is how long can continue his good form. The team looks too relied upon Maxwell. Miller has batted well in couple of matches. If the bowling and batting department can click in tandem again, this team looks unbeatable. 

Kings XI is receiving a lot of good support due to Sehwag's fans. Here is a snap from twitter for the fans of Sehwag!


With two good matches involving four tough teams, your Saturday is definitely going to be Cricketing! And don't forget - catches win matches! Here is what Gayle has to say to support this fact...
