Bumrah obviously a loss for India but they should still be big favourites. Think they'll beat South Africa in the final.
 
The Carabao Cup of International Tournaments.

India huge Favs. I actually fancy England to go well despite being smashed in India (everyone would be).

Australia would have been the obvious challenger but their bowling line up is now shit, and won't be there to bail out a fairly average batting unit.

South Africa look great on paper. Klaasen, Jansen and Rabada...maybe lacking spin?
 
Either India or South Africa to win it imo.

Shame politics prevented India playing in Pakistan.
 
The most interesting thing about this tournament is that it's the first international tournament being held in Pakistan in like 2+ decades. The frequency of cricket is too high for me personally

More interesting is India pulling out the brown envelopes to get all their matches played in Dubai.

Final is in Lahore but will be moved to Dubai if India qualify for it!

That's not interesting to me. I didn't even blink twice when I read that. No way the current government lets the Indian Cricket team set foot on Pakistani soil. In fact the dominance of this one cricketing board is what has ruined cricket for me. Earlier it was Australia and England calling the shots, but at least each was a counterbalancing force to the other. Now...?
 
Very interesting run chase in the SA v Pakistan game right now. Winner plays in the Tri-series final.

SA made 350 odd. Pakistan chasing it down quite well here.
