ICC Champions Trophy is set to start from 22 October 2009 in South Africa (fixtures). Eight top cricket teams will take part in the event. As there are no minnows, it is possible that anyone can win the Champions trophy 2009. Eight teams will battle in two groups with 4 in each, two from each advance to semis and finally the final will be held.
Group A: Australia , India, Pakistan and West Indies
Group B: Sri Lanka, New Zealand, England and South Africa
Australia, India, Pakistan and West Indies are grouped in group A. Australia is the defending champions and as we all know it has ruled the ODI cricket for years. Aussies have a great chance of winning but their recent form is not very good. India on the other hand has been in great form in ODI cricket. Pakistan won the T20 World cup and are totally unpredictable. They are great contenders too. West Indies won the Champions Trophy in 2005 and was finalist last time. They are also unpredictable.
On Group 2,there is expected to be a great competition. South Africa is great in ODI cricket. Sri Lanka is also a strong team and so are England and New Zealand.
