CWC 2011 - India vs Netherlands ICC Cricket world cup 2011

More than 20 million watch Americans India vs Netherlands have multiple ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 Social Security numbers online (SSNs) associated score with their highlights name in commercial records according to a new study announced in December from ID Analytics, Inc. The study found that rather than serving as a unique identifier, more than 40 million SSNs are associated with multiple people.

6.1 percent of Americans have at least two SSNs associated with their name. More than 100,000 Americans have five or more SSNs associated with their name.

Dr. Stephen Coggeshall, chief technology officer, at ID Analytics said. “Most of these cases of duplication are likely due to simple data entry errors as opposed to deliberate falsification. Nevertheless, organizations expose themselves and their customers to risk if they solely rely on the SSN to verify an individual.”

ID Analytics analyzed 290 million Social Security numbers, and found that 1 in 7 are associated with more than one name. Anywhere from 3-4 million names are directly used to commit fraud.

MSNBC reported the same study showed 140,000 SSNs are connected to 5 or more people and 27,000 SSNs are connected to 10 or more people.

Some of these secondary SSNs are the result of typos where an administrator may incorrectly enter a digit and then that secondary SSN is now connected to a person’s credit going forward.

In other cases it is deliberate fraud. When the same person is shown using multiple Social Security numbers on purpose then a flag is raised.

Consumers often find out their SSN is compromised as a result of being denied credit or when bill collectors call them for non payment.

Skipper MS Dhoni seems to favour chasing on good batting wickets after the tied England game.

Netherlands could spring a surprise and put India in just to make them uncomfortable.

Team News

India: Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, MS Dhoni, Yusuf Pathan, Harbhajan Singh, Zaheer Khan, Munaf Patel, Ashish Nehra

After an uncomfortable win over Ireland, Piyush Chawla’s place is under threat and could be replaced by Ashish Nehra.

Holland: Alexei Kervezee, Waesley Barresi, Tom Cooper, Bas Zuiderent, Ryan ten Doeschate, Tom de Grooth, Peter Borren, Mudassar Bukhari, Pieter Seelaar, Bernanrd Loots, Berend Westjidk

Holland will field their strongest side unless there is a last-minute injury concern.

Prediction

India’s World Cup campaign might not be as smooth as they would have liked but they are still too strong for Holland.

The batsmen are in form and though the bowling is a worry, the Dutch batsmen will not be asking many questions of them.

Holland will be hoping that they can negotiate Zaheer Khan without much damage and then look to get runs off the other bowlers.

India to win by a country mile.

Key Men

Zaheer Khan – His guile will be too much for the Dutch to handle.

Ryan ten Doeschate – Easily their best player with bat or ball.

India vs Netherlands: Expect nothing but a one-sided match

It's Wednesday and India are playing. That surely can't be right. I was under the impression that divinely bestowed law dictated India play only at weekends in day/night matches, hence why English and South African fans had to endure a miserable 4am wake up call to watch their game on Sunday despite being perfectly situated, time zone wise, for the later day-nighter.

Oh, hang on. It's against the Netherlands. That would explain it. Yes, India complete their matches against the four easiest teams in the group today (was it also a cunning ruse by the organizers to give the home team a gentle start to the tournament?), and no one expects anything other than a one-sided match. For most people, the only possible interest will be derived from watching Tendulkar attempt to reach his 99th international ton, so expect the Indians to bat first if they win the toss.

In their last two matches, the Dutch have lost by a combined margin of 446 runs, which is 110 runs more than South Africa and England managed on Sunday between them. True, they ran England close in their opening fixture but making sense of any match involving England is like trying to discern an original thought from within the babbling, parroted banalities of a day's commentary delivered by Ravi Shastri and Danny Morrison.

Perhaps Ten Doeschate will go berserk again, but I fancy that he and Kevin O'Brien have each played their one and only great innings of the tournament. Which is not to say that the Netherlands will be a pushover. Their side contains considerable first class experience. They are no Kenya, or Canada. But if the pitch is a good one, there is every reason to expect a mammoth total from the hosts if they get first crack.

It may not come from Sehwag whose legendary boredom threshold will probably lower to subterranean levels at the enervating prospect of facing Berend Westdijk, Pieter Seelar and Rob Key lookalike Mudassar Bukhari. But Tendulkar, Gambhir and Kohli will surely fancy the job. I like Kohli, and not just because of his uniquely trendy but magnificently self-conscious sunglasses. Nor is it simply that he isn't Suresh Raina, though that is an undeniable point in his favour.

No, Kohli is the business in 50 over cricket and in him Pujara and Gambhir lies that fast approaching future that all Indians know is coming but of which they remain in steadfast denial; a kind of menopause for the nation of India. Yes. The Age Without Tendulkar (and Sehwag, Dravid and Laxman). Sorry readers, but sometimes tough love is the only way. Face it. Deal with it. And move on. Soon (as in roughly 15 months or so).

For now the phoney war is nearly complete. We're over half way through the group phase, and the favourites have only had one proper match, which they tied. Everything after today should be supercharged cricket with matches against West Indies and South Africa determining whether India get a favourable draw in the quarter finals or face up to the prospect of the rampant Australians or multi talented Sri Lankans at least one round earlier than intended. Today though we can only hope the Dutch survive the match with some semblance of spirit in tact because Dhoni, Yuvraj and co. are not known for taking prisoners. Not even if they're conscientious objectors.
