Champions Trophy 2006 - Captain's Knock is the difference

Stephen Fleming lead his team from the front... his knock of 89 was the difference between the two teams. If the scores in the last couple of matches are any indications then the pitches prepared for the champions trophy do not seem to be set for a high scoring chases. All the teams have chased or set a very low score. All the credit should be given to the NZ team for setting a stiff target on a un-even pitch and then bowling SA out.

NZ were lucky to have that xtra buffer of 40-70 runs which England failed to put in their match against India. The way India played another 20-40 runs would have been curtains for them.

Let's wait n c what is in store for us in the match between PAK v/s SL tomorrow... Will Pakistan come out of the 'sideline' tamashas and score over the 'in-form' SL team.. tomorrow's match is definetely going to be an interesting one..
