A cricket video for Cricket World TV about the latest cricket news looking at four batsmen - Manoj Tiwary, Kieron Pollard, David Warner and Asad Shafiq all scoring their maiden international centuries over the weekend.
It also rounds up the action from three series, which saw India beat the West Indies 4-1 in a series of ODIs, Pakistan comfortably beat Bangladesh in the opening Test in Chittagong and Australia and New Zealand tie their Test series as New Zealand won in Hobart by just seven runs.
Warner and Pollard in particular provoked most reaction for scoring their centuries after they made their names in Twenty20 cricket and many doubted whether either would have the temperament to score centuries in longer forms of the game. Warner's 123 saw him carry his bat as Australia were narrowly defeated while there were plenty of Pollard sixes - ten of them in fact - to cheer before the West Indies fell 34 runs short.
Tiwary and Shafiq are young players in whom plenty of hope and expectation has already been placed by fans in India and Pakistan and they returned some of that investment with attractive innings which unlike those fine efforts of Warner and Pollard, proved to be match-winning knocks. Tiwary's innings came in the shadow of Virender Sehwag hitting 219 in the fourth match but with Sehwag rested, none little attention was diverted.
Shafiq has been dubbed 'Mr Solid' by some and has effectively replaced no mean cricketer Mohammad Yousuf in Pakistan's middle order.

India has reversed its decision to let foreign retailers such as Wal-mart ( WMT , quote), Carrefour SA ( CRRFY , quote ) and Costco Wholesale Corporation ( COST , quote ) own 51% of retail entities, which is a significant loss for the country and its consumers.
As reported in the Financial Times in an article by James Fontanelle-Khan, "India drops proposal to open up for western retailers," the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce called the reversal by India's ruling Congress "deeply disappointing."
As detailed in a previous article on www.emergingmoney.com , " India changes the game by opening its retail sector ," the country stood much to gain from greater foreign investment.
Due to the primitive state of India's infrastructure, a great deal of produce is lost in transit to market, pushing food prices upward. There is no entity in the world better at logistics than Wal-Mart (WMT).
In addition, India's economy is stalling. The automobile, banking and airline industries are all in deep trouble. The rupee has been pounded. Credit raters have threatened to downgrade the sovereign debt of India.
As also reviewed on recent articles on www.emergingmoney.com , the closed-end fund for India, The India Fund ( IFN , quote ) is trading near its year low.
Foreign investment of both capital and management expertise from retailers such as Wal-Mart (WMT), Costco (COST) and Carrefoure SA (CRFFY) is much needed by India.
A cricket video for Cricket World TV about the latest cricket news looking at Pakistan thrashing Bangladesh by five wickets in the opening ODI in Dhaka thanks to a memorable all-round performance from Shahid Afridi
Afridi hit an unbeaten 24 to follow up a haul of five for 23 as Bangladesh were bowled out for 91 and Pakistan were made to work hard before reaching a relatively comfortable 93 for five.
During the course of the game, Afridi became the second man (after Sanath Jayasuriya) to score 6000 ODI runs and take 300 wickets. Afridi has had an extraordinary career in the game, scoring a century in 37 balls, retiring more than once, hitting hundreds of sixes and representing a number of teams around the world including Hampshire and the Deccan Chargers in the Indian Premier League.
He captained his country to the 2011 World Cup semi-final before withdrawing from international cricket following Pakistan's tour of the West Indies. His latest return has been triumphant, playing a leading role in series successes in the UAE against Sri Lanka and now starting well against Bangladesh.
