England on verge of victory

England dominated things again on day four of the second and final Test in Durham on Sunday and it seems that they will go on to win the match and seal a 2-0 series triumph, so long as the weather holds, that is

England do the business

There is nothing a cricketer enjoys more than a weekend off so England will have been doubly delighted after they cruised to a 10-wicket win over West Indies in the first match of the two-Test series at Lord's

Look no further than Pietersen

The Test series between England and West Indies consists of only two matches so if you are looking for a bet in the top runscorer and wicket-taker markets, you need someone who starts fast as opposed to someone who improves as a series goes on

Home advantage key for England

The Ashes may be two months away, but England get the chance to hone their game by playing West Indies in a two-Test series, starting at Lord's on Wednesday. And having lost to the West Indies in the Caribbean earlier this year, England will be intent on

Aussies likely to finish with win

Pakistan have flattered to deceive in the one-day series and now that the series is over as a contest, it's tempting to believe they will win the final match on Sunday. But Australia are a ruthless lot and they will be eyeing a 4-1 victory

Pakistan need to win last two

After collapsing in the third match of the series, Pakistan have it all to do, knowing they must win the last two matches, beginning with match four on Monday, if they are to pinch the series and send the Aussies away with their tails between their legs

Pakistan can regain lead

Australia duly levelled the one-day series with Pakistan by winning the second match on Friday but there is no reason why the "home" side can not regain the lead by taking match three, to be played in Abu Dhabi on Monday

Delhi favourites, Mumbai dangerous

Cue pandemonium as the IPL begins on Thursday with the first round of matches in what last year proved to be a fantastic competition won by Shane Warne and the Rajastan Royals. Warne's side are unfancied this time, but you can never write him off.

Motivation the key in Port Elizabeth

Having already clinched the series and retained the No 1 ranking, it would be easy for South Africa to ease off in the final match of the one-day series against Australia in Port Elizabeth on Friday. Ricky Ponting has called for the Aussies to end on a hi

South Africa look to finish it off

South Africa deservedly took a 2-1 lead over Australia in the one-day international series on Thursday and will now look to wrap up the series at the first time of asking by winning the fourth match, to be played on Monday

South Africa on a roll

South Africa bounced back well to level the one-day series with Australia at one win apiece and now go into the third game of five with momentum on their side

South Africa look to bounce back

Australia dominated the first one-day international to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series but though they look in control, experience tells us that one-day matches are notoriously volatile and there is no reason why South Africa cannot bounce back

04-Apr-2009•Simon Cambers

South Africa need to get ahead

If South Africa are to win the one-day series, so the feeling goes, then they need to get ahead and stay ahead, so that means they need to win the first match against Australia, which is to be played in Durban on Friday

Can South Africa gain revenge?

I have always wondered why teams persist in playing one-day series after the conclusion of Test matches, for they always have something of "after the Lord Mayor's show" about them. But when South Africa take on Australia in the first of five games on Frid

New Zealand give themselves a chance

New Zealand batted stoutly on day four of the third and final Test to at least give themselves a chance to save the match, but with one day still to go, India remain in pole position and it is asking an awful lot for the home side to bat through three mor

Winner takes all in St Lucia

England and Andrew Strauss surprised a few people with a decent effort in the fourth one-day international as they levelled the series at 2-2. Now the two teams meet in St Lucia on Friday for series honours

West Indies should wrap it up

If West Indies can't win this series, given the way England have clearly given up, then there is something massively wrong. They should win the fourth match, to be played on Sunday, and it is amazing that they are not a shorter price

All to play for in Barbados

After Shivnarine Chanderpaul's heroics in Guyana it's as you were in the one-day series, all square but now with just three to play. But for me, nothing has changed and West Indies hold the edge going into the next match in Barbados, to be played on Frida

India batting themselves out of trouble

India's batsmen finally came to the party on day four of the second Test against New Zealand in Napier and now have a decent chance of saving the match and taking a 1-0 lead into the final match of the series

22-Mar-2009•Simon Cambers

Windies look for fast start

The first one-day international between West Indies and England takes place in Guyana on Friday and though the bookies can't split the two sides, the home side should have the edge and can make a winning start to the five-match series
