Yes folks, the Champions Trophy is up and running. Despite the certain reservations I have had about the intentions behind the tournament, it is slowly moving towards a climax that would rather seem unpredictable. With 8 teams vying for glory in this tournament, it now seems very difficult to pick a definite winner ! Some of the results that the tournament has witnessed has surely justified the nature of one-day cricket, which is now "On-the-Day" cricket. Australia succumbed meekly to some intensified West Indian pressure, while Abdul Razzaq's gusto finish made all the difference between a bigger setback and a victory for Pakistan. Pundits have gone through the various permutations and combinations to see who goes through from their respective groups. It will be a case of luck, on-the-day performance and calculations that will take four of the 8 teams through.
