భారత్ X కివీస్: తొలి సెమీస్లో ఢీ అంటే ఢీ

సెమీ'సమరం'లో తొలి మ్యాచ్కు అంతా సిద్ధం

ప్రపంచకప్ గెలిచేందుకు భారత్కు మరో రెండు అడుగుల దూరం మాత్రమే ఉంది. నేడు సెమీస్లో కివీస్తో సమరానికి సిద్ధమైంది. మాంచెస్టర్ వేదికగా మధ్యాహ్నం 3 గంటలకు మ్యాచ్ ప్రారంభం కానుంది.

కప్పు కొట్టడమే లక్ష్యంగా ఈ మెగాటోర్నీలో అడుగుపెట్టింది కోహ్లీసేన. అందుకు తగ్గట్టుగానే ప్రదర్శన చేస్తూ వచ్చింది. 9 మ్యాచ్ల్లో 7 మ్యాచ్ల్లో గెలిచి, ఇంగ్లాండ్పై మాత్రమే ఓడింది. న్యూజిలాండ్తో ఆడాల్సిన లీగ్ మ్యాచ్ వర్షం కారణంగా రద్దయింది. ఇప్పుడు ఎలాగైనా ఆ జట్టును ఓడించాలని భారత్ తపిస్తోంది.

టీమిండియా కెప్టెన్ కోహ్లీ

వరుస విజయాలు నమోదు చేసి టీమిండియా ఉత్సాహంతో ఉండగా, గత 3 మ్యాచ్ల్లోనూ ఓటమిపాలైంది కివీస్. ఈ రోజు గెలిచి ఫైనల్లో అడుగుపెట్టాలని ఇరుజట్లు భావిస్తున్నాయి. కానీ ఆ అవకాశం ఎవరికి దక్కుతుందో చూడాలి.

టీమిండియా

భారత్ ఓపెనింగ్ జోడి రోహిత్ శర్మ (647)- రాహుల్ (360) అద్భుతంగా రాణిస్తున్నారు. ఇప్పటికే రోహిత్ అత్యధిక పరుగులు చేసిన వారిలో అగ్రస్థానంలో ఉన్నాడు. కెప్టెన్గానే కాకుండా బ్యాటింగ్లోనూ ఆకట్టుకుంటున్న కోహ్లీ.. ఈ ప్రపంచకప్లో 442 పరుగులు చేశాడు. వీరు ముగ్గురూ మరోసారి చెలరేగితో టీమిండియా గెలుపు నల్లేరుపై నడకే.

రోహిత్ శర్మ-రాహుల్ జోడి

భారత్ను వేధిస్తోన్న సమస్య మిడిలార్డర్. టాప్ ఆర్డర్ విఫలమైతే సరైన భాగస్వామ్యాలు నిర్మించలేకపోతున్నారు. పాండ్య అనుకున్నంతగా ఆడలేకపోతున్నాడు. ధోని నెమ్మదిగా ఆడుతున్నాడు. మరి ఈ మ్యాచ్లో వాటికి భారత్ చెక్ పెడుతుందేమో చూడాలి.

బౌలింగ్ విభాగానికొస్తే బుమ్రా అత్యుత్తమ ప్రదర్శన కనబరుస్తున్నాడు. అతడికి తోడుగా షమి, భువనేశ్వర్ రాణిస్తే టీమిండియా ఫైనల్లో అడుగుపెట్టడం చాలా తేలిక. ఈ మ్యాచ్లో వీరికి తోడుగా స్పిన్నర్లలో కుల్దీప్, చాహల్లో ఒకరికి అవకాశం దక్కొచ్చు.

న్యూజిలాండ్

బ్యాటింగ్లో కెప్టెన్ విలియమ్సన్ (481) మినహా మరెవరూ పరుగులు చేయలేకపోతున్నారు. మిగతావారిలో రాస్ టేలర్ మాత్రమే ఇప్పటివరకు 261 పరుగులు చేసి కొంతలో కొంత మెరుగ్గా ఉన్నాడు.

కివీస్ కెప్టెన్ విలయమ్సన్

కివీస్ జట్టుకు బౌలింగ్ అతి పెద్ద బలం. బౌల్ట్, ఫెర్గుసన్, హెన్రీ పేస్తో ప్రత్యర్థుల్ని పరుగులు చేయకుండా కట్టడి చేసి వికెట్లు తీస్తున్నారు. వీరిని మన బ్యాట్స్మెన్ ఎంత వరకూ అడ్డుకుంటారనేది ప్రశ్న.

కివీస్ పేసర్ ట్రెంట్ బౌల్ట్

ప్రపంచకప్లో ఈ స్టేడియంలో జరిగిన 4 మ్యాచ్ల్లోనూ మొదట బ్యాటింగ్ చేసిన జట్లదే విజయం. అందులో రెండు టీమిండియా మ్యాచ్లే కావడం విశేషం. పిచ్ బ్యాటింగ్కు అనుకూలిస్తుంది. వర్షం పడే సూచనలు కనిపిస్తున్నాయి. అలా జరిగినా బుధవారం రిజర్వ్డేగా ప్రకటించారు కాబట్టి ఇబ్బంది లేదు.

జట్లు (అంచనా)

టీమిండియా: రోహిత్ శర్మ, రాహుల్, కోహ్లీ (కెప్టెన్), పంత్, ధోని, దినేశ్ కార్తిక్, హార్దిక్ పాండ్య, కుల్దీప్, షమి, భువనేశ్వర్, బుమ్రా

న్యూజిలాండ్: గప్తిల్, రాస్ టేలర్, విలియమ్సన్ (కెప్టెన్), గ్రాండ్హొమ్, సౌథీ, బౌల్ట్, లాథమ్, నీషమ్, హెన్రీ, శాంట్నర్, నికోలస్

"It's incredible to play because there's just so many people and you just sort of see it going back and the seas... and then you know it's always a big test in a festival, when you start out it can be a little bit sparse and then as you carry on like more and more people come. And obviously the aim of the game at the festival is to have more people there at the end than they were at the start. So, I enjoy that challenge. It always starts off a little bit patchy and then by the end everyone's with you."

"I guess I write all different times of the year you know? And especially at something like this I will play like a sunnier set. You know if I'm doing my own show and it's nearly two hours long in a theater then I will play like a song for 12 minutes. I do play ballads and I do take my time and I love the intimacy of doing my own shows, but I also like the festival because it's a totally different thing. And, like you say, you come and try and bring some sunshine and. So I think when I'm writing, I'm just trying to get that song out and then when I've got some to choose from, I'll choose them for the specific event."

"Yeah, I've met him a few times. Stevie was a really big supporter of my first record. And I got to go to his radio station - he owns a radio station in Los Angeles - I went over to there and he had a breakfast show at that time and we went, you know, to the room with a breakfast and it's just like this huge table just laid and with like chicken and cakes and it's about 8:00 in the morning. It was amazing to just sit there. The people they love their food, they love good company, they always have a great time. You know there's a, when you go backstage with him there's always like 40 people there. You know he has a lot of children. So the children are there and their family and their friends and it's always just a really great celebration. I like how he does his life. You know it's a... He obviously is a really important musician and he's playing all the time, but it seems like they just kind of move around in a fun, easy, enjoyable way and it doesn't feel like professional and uptight back there."

"Well, this was a special request from Stevie. That's why I'm doing this show. So I'm really grateful because like I say we played three years ago and then when we played in Colorado and Aspen, I played with Stevie and he got me on stage and I sang and the same at the New Orleans Jazz Festival so. I have been really lucky to spend a good amount of time with him and, you know, he's a mentor for me, someone who I really admire and someone who I just, I just kind of watch. Every time you're there you just watch and learn, watch and learn, watch and learn, you know?"

"I've been really impressed with Taylor Swift. Like this isn't the first time she sort of stepped in on behalf of artists. I think there was a new platform that was starting, I can't remember what it was, but she wrote an open letter to them saying, 'You're not playing the right amount of royalties. I want to keep my music off here unless you change to, you know, be in concordance with this other platform.' And they wrote back and they agreed to change their terms, so I think she uses her platform and her power to, you know, to bring more attention to other artists and artists who don't have that voice. So I really admire her for that. But yeah owning your masters is that's the kind of new and radical thing. Generally the label owns the masters. I know the first person I heard of doing it was Ray Charles. But it's right that all these questions get asked, especially now that music isn't being bought. There is a question I think some people just feel like music kind of just comes to you and, you know, especially you can watch, you can watch people's videos on YouTube, but it doesn't you know, it doesn't really generate any income for the artist or the director or the producer or the writers. So, it's definitely an issue you know. As a young artist and a new artist, how do you make a living you know? When my record came out, if you were to hear it, you had to go to a shop and buy it. That was the only way you can be guaranteed to hear it. And now it's so different for artists. And I think that needs be changed, so she is a good advocate for artists definitely."

STORYLINE:
CORINNE BAILEY RAE: 'I'VE BEEN REALLY IMPRESSED WITH TAYLOR SWIFT'
Corinne Bailey Rae admires Taylor Swift for taking a stand where artists' rights are concerned.
"I've been really impressed with Taylor Swift. This isn't the first time she sort of stepped in on behalf of artists," the British singer-songwriter said in an interview before her BST in Hyde Park festival set.
"I think she uses her platform and her power to, you know, to bring more attention to other artists and artists who don't have that voice so I really admire her for that."
Swift recently wrote that she was sad and grossed out that her music catalog now belongs to Scooter Braun, after Braun's Ithaca Holdings announced it was acquiring Big Machine Label Group, which released all of Swift's studio albums and owns her masters.
Swift left Big Machine and signed with Universal Music Group in November because she said she knew that re-signing with the group that had managed her since she was 15 would only result in her not owning her future work.
Bailey Rae, who shot to fame in 2006 thanks to Grammy-nominated tracks "Like a Star" and "Put Your Records On," says that the industry has changed considerably since her debut, but the ownership of masters is still a sore point.
"It's definitely an issue you know. As a young artist and a new artist, how do you make a living you know? When my record came out, if you were to hear it, you had to go to a shop and buy it. That was the only way you can be guaranteed to hear it. And now it's so different for artists. And I think that needs be changed, so she is a good advocate for artists definitely."
Bailey Rae was performing in Hyde Park Saturday (6 JULY 2019) before headliner Stevie Wonder. The Brit has had the legendary singer's support since the very beginning.
"This was a special request from Stevie. That's why I'm doing this show so I'm really grateful because like I say we played three years ago and then when we played in Colorado and Aspen, I played with Stevie and he got me on stage and I sang and the same at the New Orleans Jazz Festival. So I have been really lucky to spend a good amount of time with him and, you know, he's a mentor for me."
"I like how he does his life," she added, recalling Wonder's busy backstage parties.
"He obviously is a really important musician and he's playing all the time, but it seems like they just kind of move around in a fun, easy, enjoyable way and it doesn't feel like professional and uptight back there."
Corinne Bailey Rae is touring the U.S. and will be performing at the SummerStage in Central Park in New York on 4 August.
