PRP to merge with Congress on Aug 20

The Praja Rajyam Party (PRP) will officially be merged with Congress on August 20, according to PRP president Chiranjeevi.
“We decided to officially merge Praja Rajyam with Congress on August 20, the birth anniversary of Rajeev Gandhi.
On August 20 and 21, senior party (PRP) leaders will take Congress party membership at Gandhi Bhavan,” Mr. Chiranjeevi told reporters in Hyderabad.
Mr. Chiranjeevi was earlier scheduled to meet AICC chief Sonia Gandhi between August 7 and 10, to formally take primary membership of Congress. However since Ms. Gandhi is undergoing treatment in USA, the PRP chief is expected to take Congress membership from Mr. Rahul Gandhi.
The PRP, which has 18 seats in the 294-seat State Assembly, had announced the merger plans in February.
The PRP has already technically merged with the Congress party in Andhra Pradesh, even though a public meeting could not be organised to formalise the amalgamation.
The current political uncertainty in the state over the bifurcation issue has jeopardised Mr. Chiranjeevi’s plans to organise a grand meeting with Ms. Sonia or Mr. Rahul Gandhi to formalise the merger.

INDIA VS ENGLAND 3rd Test, England reach No. 1 with emphatic win

 England 710 for 7 dec (Cook 294, Morgan 104) beat India 224 (Dhoni 77, Broad 4-53, Bresnan 4-62) and 244 (Dhoni 74*, Anderson 4-85) by an innings and 242 runs

Michael Atherton leads the presentation and starts by congratulating England on their win and, to the cheers of the crowd, their No. 1 ranking.

MS Dhoni , classy as ever, starts by congratulating England on becoming the world's best team. "We need to see what limitations we have. A few of our players are not great fielders and we're not the best looking fielding side in the world. What we're really proud of is our bowling and batting. We have not been able to keep good deliveries out, it's a major area of concern. We need to see out the good ones and make use of the loose deliveries. A couple of defeats doesn't change anything I am still proud of my team. When you play for India there is a lot of expectation and people expect us to win everything but that's not possible. Being No. 1 or not being No. 1 is not important, it's all about being consistent. I've been quite happy with the preparation but it's one of those series where nothing has really clicked for us."

Andrew Strauss: "It wasn't a massive gamble to bowl first, there was probably less in the wicket than we thought there would be and by the time we batted the wicket had gone flat. The wickets have been shared around the bowlers and the pressure they have applied has been relentless, I don't think there are many better in the world right now. It was fantastic to get runs myself and then sit on the sofa and watch Cookie bat for two days. He has amazing concentration and determination, he's in this patch at the moment where he's very clear what his game was and he's an example for us all. Getting to No. 1 has been a goal for a long time and it fills me with a lot of pride to know we have completed something very special. We have had to work very had and the guys have put a lot of hard graft to get to No. 1. "

Alastair Cook is named man of the match And fair enough really, he's been on the field for the entirety of it. "The work put in over the week off has paid dividends for me. Over the last 12 months scoring big hundreds was what I needed to work at and I'm glad that's happened. You want the attacking middle order players to go at the tiring bowlers later in the day. I'm very pleased but it's a huge team effort to bowl a team like that out for less than 250 on a flat wicket in both innings."

To relive this historic day do have a look at Andrew McGlashan's report and our gallery. It's been a long journey for England, ranked the world's worst team at the end of 1999 to climb to the top. Staying there will be almost as difficult. That begins at The Oval next week but for now that's all from me, Sahil Dutta, and from the rest of the team.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

England win by an innings and 242 runs and lead series 3-0 Edgbaston rises as the England players walk off. In the dressing room Andy Flower looks absolutely calm but as the players greet him he manages a smile. This has been a special performance from a very special team. Yet again they have flattened the celebrated India batting line up for under 300. James Anderson led the way with four wickets but was, as ever, backed up by the Stuart Broad and Tim Bresnan. MS Dhoni managed to salvage some personal pride with an unbeaten 74 but his team were a long, long way out of the contest. It's the 15th worst innings defeat in Test history and also Dhoni's first series loss as captain.

England won by 196 runs Test at Lord's, London, England

London: James Anderson grabbed his 11th five wicket haul in the longest form of the game, as England won the historic 2000th Test against India by a whopping 196 runs on the fifth and final day at Lord's on Sunday.

Anderson finished with figures of 5/69 as India lost their last three wickets for a mere five runs.

Praveen Kumar (2) was bowled neck and crop by Stuart Broad, before Anderson got back to back wickets of Suresh Raina (78) and Ishant Sharma (1) to settle the issue in favour of the home team.

Kevin Pietersen was declared man of the match for his unbeaten 202 in the first innings.

With this win, England have taken a 1-0 lead in the four match series, as both teams turn their attention to Nottingham for the second Test which starts on Friday.

Tremlett struck for England after the tea break by getting rid of Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Dhoni was caught behind by England wicketkeeper Matt Prior for 16.

The visitors lost their seventh wicket when Harbhajan was dimissed for 12. The Indian off spinner skied an attempted pull shot off the bowling of Anderson who took his fourth wicket of the innings as Tremlett completed a fine running catch.

Earlier, Raina brought up his sixth half century, and was involved in an unbroken partnership of 53 with Dhoni.

Raina was unbeaten on 54 and Dhoni was giving him company on 16 at the end of the second session.

Anderson got the all important scalp of Sachin Tendulkar (12) in the post lunch session by trapping the maestro leg before wicket.

The visitors lost the crucial wickets of Rahul Dravid (36), VVS Laxman (56) and Gautam Gambhir (22), and went into lunch at 142/4.

The Indians got off to a poor start on the last day when Dravid who made 36 was caught by Prior off the bowling of James Anderson.

India then lost their fourth wicket when Graeme Swann got rid of Gambhir.

Gambhir lunged forward as the ball hit his pad and umpire Asad Rauf took his time before deciding in the bowler's favour.

James Anderson struck a killer blow for England by getting rid of the well set Laxman for 56. Laxman was caught by Ian Bell at short mid wicket after an attempted pull by the batsman failed to clear Bell.

Earlier on Sunday, a sixth Test hundred by England wicketkeeper Matt Prior, and an unbeaten 74 by Stuart Broad put the hosts in a commanding position.

At stumps on day four, India were 80/1 having lost Abhinav Mukund (12), and still 378 away from their victory target with Dravid (34) and Laxman (32) at the crease.

India had conceded a lead of 190 runs after being bowled out for 286 in reply to the hosts' first inning total of 474.

Prior then went to score his sixth Test ton as England declare their second innings at 269/6 to set India a victory target of 458.
