On T20 Fan Voice: T20 Cricket Tidings - June 11, 2009

A message to all members of T20 Fan Voice

Dear T20 Cricket fan,

Welcome to the www.T20.com CricComm (our commentary on T20 Cricket)!

Match to look out for today! What promises to be a perfect Bollywood potboiler- Graeme Smith will lead his men against England with Kevin Pietersen in its ranks in their World Twenty20 Super Eights opener.

Yesterday's Match: Zaheer Khan's return to wicket-taking form and Rohit Sharma's maiden half-century as opening batsman were the two biggest gains for India in their eight-wicket victory over Ireland. "We thought Zak (Zaheer) needed just one more game to get back in the groove, and that's what we saw after the last game – he was back in the groove and hitting the ball in the right area," Dhoni said.
