Champions Trophy

100 UP. Looking good for India. An early comprehensive win in the tournament is always good for the team and i think thats what India is going to get today.

Looks like we are on a hiding to nothing 350 plus looks on the cards.

Morkel has to strike soon to give S.A some hope...

Maybe this is what we need, a good hiding early on as we normally start these comps strong and fade or choke later in the knock out stage...

Listening to the crowd it sounds like we are playing at Eden Gardens. :

MWOS is offering 5/2 on S.A.

At 156/1 after 25 overs this looks like a 350 plus score for India

TED I wouldn't touch that when you consider that out of the last 24 overs we have to have 16 of them bowled between Tsotsobe, Kleinveld, Peterson and Duminy. With the batting to come if India don't make 350 I would be very surprised I am going to do a CnC now I predict 384/4.

How in heavens name can Kleinveldt be an international cricketer. He cant bowl and he cant run. He needs to get fit and lose plenty of weight.

They use to say that you can double the score after 30 overs. Your score could be close Shrek.

Have to agree - still can't understand how Albie Morkel and Chris Morris could not make the squad - both performed well iin the IPL imo
