Blue Knight Hawks Vs Champions Preview:


The
Blue Knight Hawks are making their debut this month and they will be
touring the Champions - a team which didn't have a perfect last
tournament. Both teams are filled with loads of international
heavyweights. The BKH squad is a pretty surprising one which has some of
the cricketing legends in it. It will be interesting to see if those
retired players can get into form straightway.

Players to Watch-out for:

Warriors Vs Cosmos Preview:
+
----
-



The
Cosmos- the other name for brilliance. The Cosmos were the inaugural
Twenty20 Boom champions. They are all set to host The Warriors in their
home in the month of August. The Warriors consists of some of the
thrilling cricketers but their performance till date has been very
miserable as they ended at 4th position out of 5 teams in the last
month. The addition of Gilchrist is a very interesting aspect to be
seen. The Cosmos have made 3 changes to their team too and now look even
stronger. As many are saying, this might pan out to be tour of the
month with big names ready to take the center stage.


Players to watch out for :

Dominators Vs Titans Preview:


The
Dominators were off to a dominating start last month in T20 Boom but
were finally brought to the earth by The Cosmos. Ever since they have
looked pretty ordinary. On the other hand, Supreme Titans had a very
poor outing winning just 1 of the first 7 matches but beating Dominators
in their 8th match. That aided the Titan's morale a lot which got
further boosted with inclusion of stars like Ponting and Asif in the
recent mini-auction. Another humdinger on hands as Titans host the
Dominators.

Players to watch out for:

Serena Williams sets up Stanford final against Bartoli:
Serena Williams marched into the final of the Bank of The West Classic with a 6-1 6-2 victory over Sabine Lisicki.The former world number one won 82% of her first serve points and 13 of 17 on her German opponent's second serves."This just continues my journey to do what I can," said Williams, who will play Marion Bartoli in the final.Third seed Bartoli advanced to the final, in California, when Slovakia's Dominika Cibulkova withdrew because of a left abdominal strain.Cibulkova said she had been troubled by the injury all week and was advised by a doctor not to play her last-four match because she could make the injury worse.Williams knows all about injury lay-offs having only recently returned from a year out after a series of health problems, including a cut foot and blood clots in her lungs.

Celtic may take Craig Bellamy on loan from Manchester City:
Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini is willing to let Wales striker Craig Bellamy go out on loan to Celtic.The Glasgow club are interested in landing the 32-year-old, who spent last season on loan at Cardiff City and had a loan spell at Celtic in 2005.Boss Neil Lennon said: "There have been conversations between both clubs."And Mancini told BBC Sport: "If Celtic want Craig... he can go. Craig is a good striker and he can play at Celtic, because they're an important team."City and Celtic were playing in the same pre-season tournament in Dublin, after which Lennon talked of the possible addition of Bellamy.

New Zealand humble South Africa:
Zac Guildford and Cory Jane scored two tries apiece as New Zealand beat South Africa 40-7 in the Tri-Nations.Wyatt Crockett and Colin Slade also got on the scoresheet for the All Blacks.The result is South Africa's second defeat of this year's Tri-Nations, having also lost to Australia - who New Zealand face next weekend in Auckland.The match also saw Dan Carter reclaim the all-time Test points record from Jonny Wilkinson when he converted a penalty, his first of 10 points.

Newcastle's Wayne Routledge agrees to join Swansea City:
Newcastle United winger Wayne Routledge has agreed personal terms to join Swansea City.The 26-year-old will complete his move to the Premier League newcomers on Tuesday, subject to a medical.Newcastle accepted Swansea's £2m bid over a week ago after rejecting an initial bid of £1.5m from the south Wales club."We think he would fit into our style and excite our supporters," said Swansea manager Brendan Rodgers.Routledge spent the second half of last season on loan at Championship side Queens Park Rangers, where he helped them win promotion to the Premier League.

ebastian Vettel calls for Red Bull rethink after Hungarian GP:
World champion Sebastian Vettel expressed concern about Red Bull's drop in form after a third race without victory at the Hungarian Grand Prix.The German, who has an 83-point championship lead, started on pole at the Hungaroring but finished second behind McLaren's Jenson Button."We tried to win, there had been a chance but we didn't use it," said Vettel. "We need to look into that."We've seen how quickly things can change so we need to win again."Vettel built his championship lead by winning six of the first eight races in a breathtaking start to the season.But the defending world champion's last victory came in Valencia and since then Fernando Alonso has won in Britain for Ferrari with McLaren drivers Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button taking a victory apiece in Germany and Hungary.

Yani Tseng wins Women's British Open to make history:
Yani Tseng won the Women's British Open on Sunday to rack up her fifth major title at the age of 22, an achievement unparalleled by any golfer before her.The Taiwanese world number one shot a final round 69 at Carnoustie.Having trailed leader Caroline Masson by two strokes overnight, she finished four strokes ahead of Brittany Lang.Germany's Masson had to settle for a share of fifth, alongside 2009 champion Catriona Matthew of Scotland, after carding a disastrous six-over par 78.The tournament, which Tseng also won last year, replaced the du Maurier Classic as a major in 2001.

Inter's Wesley Sneijder coy on Manchester United move:
Inter Milan midfielder Wesley Sneijder has refused to rule out a move to Manchester United but is likely to have to lower his wage demands to seal a move to Old Trafford."There is always a chance something will happen but we will see," he said.The 27-year-old Dutchman is valued at around £35m but has a reported weekly wage of £250,000.Manager Sir Alex Ferguson has denied reports over the weekend that he has given Sneijder a contract ultimatum."If Sneijder wants to come, he must accept our contract offer. If not, we have other options in mind. We're done talking," Ferguson was quoted as saying.

Undercooked India lack fight - Sourav Ganguly:
Former India captain Sourav Ganguly has criticised the current side for being under-prepared and said the batsmen need to "put their bodies on the line" if they are to salvage anything from their Test series in England.Mahendra Singh Dhoni's struggling team followed a 196-run defeat at Lord's with a 319-run loss at Trent Bridge on Monday to go 2-0 down in the series with two Tests to play.Ganguly, who captained India to more Test victories (21) than any other skipper, said their under-par displays were partly due to the decision to play just one-warm up game in England before the start of the series."I am a firm believer that every time you tour you need at least two warm-up games, and they absolutely could have played an extra game," Ganguly told BBC Sport."They have been very ordinary. I expected a lot more from this team, especially they way they performed here in 2002 and 2007."
