The Champions trophy went to a rollicking start yesterday where Srilankans beat the hosts South Africans comprehensively. SA were depicted as tournament favourites along side with India and Australia. But after yesterdays showing that depiction has to be changed.
Today, the most inconsistent and the most interesting team to watch in the world cricket is playing. Yes, you guessed it right. Its Pakistan match today. They are playing with West Indies. Well may be I should say West Indies A or even West Indies B.
Pakistan have to be the favourite to win this match. Younis is out due to injury and the captaincy will be handled by Afridi. With Malik finding the form in the practice match, Pakistan have a very very solid batting line up. There is Imran Nazir’s and Akmal’s fire-power in start then serenity of Mohammed Yousuf in the middle, then we have firepower of Misbah and boom boom Afridi.
Interesting how West Indies will go about this match.

This is the first match in champions trophy and the hosts take upon Srilanka. South Africa are tournament favourites alongside with Australia (with their thumping win over Englishmen). I would not say India as favourite because they are not consistent enough and consider the warm up matches. May be they still depend on Tendulkar.
However, this match between SA and SL and this tournament overall might help to redefine the 50 overs format. It seems people have lost interst in it recently. Yes, I agree, it does have some dull periods where you just might to change channel to see some dance numbers or may be just get yourself a coffee break.
Favourite is SA by all means. They are no. 1 ODI side currently, which they deserved to be, keeping aside the argument of ICC awards nomination. SL can beat however any team on any day. They have that strength. Imagine Sangakarra, Jayasuriya and Jayawardena now with Dilshan for you batting line up and Mendis, Murali to bowl those wily spins. You might get tempted to put your money on them.

After seeing off New Zealand’s timorous challenge, Sri Lanka and India will contest bragging rights in the Compaq Cup final. Sri Lanka hold the edge in the clash between two sides who generally don’t do dull finals. The winners will go into the Champions Trophy in positive mood, leaving the loser to put salve on their injured pride.

India is playing this ODI after a long break. It must be refreshing for them. Dravid is back in the team and I am feeling refreshed myself. Sehwag is not in the team and Ghambhir is injured, but who cares there’s tendy and dravid in the team. We will have to see how India had their break and how they will perform.
NewZealand on the other hand are in do or die situation after having lost the 1st ODI. This tri-angular series is a very short one where each team plays with the other team only once, which means only two match perside, and if you loose one then to stay alive you have to win the other. If India wins this then they will play SL in the final.
