Monty Panesar takes 6 New Zealand wickets as England wins final Test Cricket & series

If we were to pick any player from the England cricket team to help defeat New Zealand, then it would have to be Monty Panesar as he took out 6 New Zealand wickets and as a result helped England win the final test.

On the final day New Zealand needed 331 runs, or just to bat out three sessions, this would have prevented England from winning the Series.

ITV have secured the online rights to F1

I have been waiting for five months now but in just a few hours I can start watching the Formula One season once again. And just before the start of the new season, ITV have announced that they have secured the online rights to F1.

This means that ITV is now the official home for F1 Online; this is a great move by the TV channel as they also have the TV broadcast rights as well. In a first this season, ITV will live stream certain practice sessions. Another new feature is that if you missed the race ITV Online will offer a 30-day catch up service.
