Draw now nailed on in Chennai

A combination of a mini batting collapse and some good batting from South Africa helped put paid to any chances of India winning the first Test and with one day remaining, the draw is now almost unbackable

Sri Lanka favourites but Windies dangerous

With all due respect to Bangladesh and Zimbabwe, it's five years since West Indies won a notable Test series. That, though, was against Sri Lanka, and having made some improvements in recent times, they will fancy their chances of beating them in the two-

West Indies sense their chance

West Indies are not exactly the force they used to be but they are better on home soil and will fancy their chances of beating Sri Lanka in the two-Test series, beginning in Guyana on Saturday

England close in on the inevitable

New Zealand batted pretty well on day four of the third and deciding Test but the result appears inevitable with the home side needing another 320 runs for victory, while England just need another five wickets to wrap up the series win

New Zealand cut again for series win

England managed to turn a potentially winable match into a disaster on the final day of the first Test in Hamilton as New Zealand ripped through their batting line-up to claim victory. With just three days to go until the next Test, England have to get ba

India can clinch series win

Sachin Tendulkar's brilliant hundred gave India a 1-0 lead in the CB Series finals and if Australia don't level the three-match series by winning the second match on Tuesday, they would end their summer on a sour note

Sidebottom unbackable in bowlers market

Having tipped Matthew Hoggard to go well in the series, I was surprised to see him bowl so poorly in the first Test against New Zealand. I was even more surprised to see him dropped for the second Test, though, and now Ryan Sidebottom is virtually unbacka

Collingwood still a good price

If England are to win the forthcoming Test series against New Zealand, it goes without saying that some players will have to excel with bat and/or ball. Having lost the series in Sri Lanka, they need to bounce back and bounce back quickly

No getting away from the Aussies

With India having already qualified to join Australia in the finals of the CB Series, the last match of the group stages - Friday's clash between the hosts and Sri Lanka - has little meaning of any note. It's hard to know what kind of side the Aussies wil

Sri Lanka cling to hope

Despite their narrow defeat by India in their last match, Sri Lanka can still reach the final of the CB Series, though to do it they will need to start winning and winning soon, beginning with Friday's match against Australia at the MCG

India and Sri Lanka to fight it out

Australia duly righted their ship after their early defeat in the CB Series and so India and Sri Lanka now have to fight it out, in all probability, for the right to face them in the final. The two sides meet at the Adelaide Oval on Tuesday, with little t

Value now lies with New Zealand

Miracle of miracles, England managed to win a one-day match. A cynical person might think that it suits the organisers perfectly as it keeps the five-match series alive but don't let one win fool you, England's one-day form is still terrible and they will

Aussies likely to be too good

Sri Lanka may have beaten India to get themselves into the CB series but don't expect them to get the better of Australia when they play each other in the next match, on Friday. The Aussies will not want any more slip-ups and that spells trouble for the S

Can England pick themselves up?

It's seems pretty amazing, but England found a way to play even worse in the second one-day international than they had in the first. That left them 2-0 down and needing victory in the third game of the five-match series, to be played on Friday, to keep t
