Champions Trophy 2017

[mhsabir]

So , after speculation of a pullout, India seems to be playing after all.. Squad announced - no surprises

Rohit, Ashwin, Shami return for Champions Trophy

Standby players are interesting - Amit Mishra is a notable omission. Ambati Rayudu would consider himself unlucky.

Suresh Raina
Rishabh Pant
Dinesh Karthik
Kuldeep Yadav
Shardul Thakur

Karthik replaces injured Pandey in Champions Trophy squad

India have included Dinesh Karthik in their squad for the Champions Trophy as a replacement for Manish Pandey, who has been ruled out with a left side strain. Pandey sustained the injury during a Kolkata Knight Riders practice session ahead of their IPL Eliminator against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Wednesday.

Its an India-Pakistan final...

 

[Sushubh]

I wonder if Pakistan would finally make use of the law of averages thingy.

 

[mhsabir]

India has won 52, Pakis 72.. India has a lot to catch up on law of averages...

I thought Pakistan has never beaten India in an ICC tournament?

 

[mhsabir]

Nah, they have beaten India before, just not in main World Cup (50 or 20 overs). They beat us in 2004 & 2009 Champion Trophy.

 

[Sushubh]

that confirms it. india is winning in the final!

 

[mhsabir]

Well, the Champions Trophy record stands at 2-2 , Pak winning in 2004 & 2009, India in 2013 & 2017 (league game)

 

[Sushubh]
