India vs West Indies
Result Update: India won by 8 wickets
Welcome to the sixth match of ICC Champions Trophy 2013 and this would be a much awaited match for both India and West Indies cricket fans. India who already holds the title of ODI world champions take on positively reviving West Indies team. Cricket fans term this as a match between heavy weights where West Indies can pull up an upset or India can make this a one sided affair in their favour. Star Cricket and Star Sports 2 channels in India continue its well renowned quality live TV telecast for Champions trophy matches.
To everyone's surprise, these two teams played each other last in an ODI in England in 1983 world cup final. India defeated West Indies to become the World Champions then. India again being the World Champions this time face West Indies in England for an ODI. This has been a long wait for the fans.
The venue for this match Kennington Oval favours West Indies as they have won 9 of their last 11 matches here. India doesn't fancy their chances too much here and have a below average win loss record. India has lost 7 of their last 11 matches. None of the teams can bank on the past as things have majorly changed now.
India won its first match against South Africa whereas West Indies managed a tough fought win against Pakistan. As far as the head to head count in Champions Trophy is concerned, West Indies have won two and lost one against India. However India leads the last 12 ODIs count against West Indies by 9-3.
Indian batsmen Dhawan, Karthik, Rohit Sharma, Kohli and Dhoni seem to be in good form. Raina is lagging behind in terms of batting form but he is exceptionally well with his fielding. Bowling wise India can rely on the likes of Ishant, Bhuvaneshwar Kumar and Umesh Yadav for quick bowling. On the other hand part timer Ravindra Jadeja can come in handy along with quality spinner R Ashwin.
West Indies batsmen Gayle, Samuels, Sarwan, Pollard etc need to click well if they have to post a big total. They have a strong bowling line up consisting of Dwayne Bravo, Roach, Narine, Rampaul, etc.
