West Indies have the edge at home

England go into their five-match one-day series with West Indies this week smarting from their defeat in the Test series. The bookies can't split the two sides for series honours, but I have a feeling home advantage could swing it in the West Indies' favo

South Africa take control in Cape Town

Jacques Kallis rose to the occasion on Friday as he hit an unbeaten century to take South Africa into a strong position at the end of day two of the third and final Test. The series may be over as a contest, but South Africa want the win to boost morale a

India take total control in Hamilton

Sachin Tendulkar's 42nd Test century helped put India in total and utter control after day three of the first Test in Hamilton and it is hard to see anything other than a win for the visitors in the first game of the three-Test series

India out to assert dominance in Tests

Having dominated the one-day series, India will be confident of translating their limited overs prowess to the Test arena when the three-match series begins on Tuesday. New Zealand have home advantage but that is the only edge they have against an awfully

One more for the clean sweep

India have totally dominated the one-day series with New Zealand to date and it would take a braver man than me to predict anything other than another win for the visitors in the fifth and final match on Saturday, a result that would give them a series sw

India look almost unstoppable

New Zealand were probably grateful that the second match in the one-day international series was washed out for it ruined India's chances of sweeping the series 5-0. Nothing has changed, though, and the bookies give the home side little chance of winning

South Africa keep hopes alive

For the first time in the series, South Africa finally showed their true talent on Monday as they turned in a defiant batting performance that at least gives them a chance to force a draw in the second Test and keep the series with Australia alive going i

Australia eyeing Johannesburg win

Australia continued to dominate the first Test against South Africa on Johannesburg after day three. The tourists know taking another ten wickets will be tough, on what is a flat pitch, but they are in command and are now odds-on to get the win

England should finally be upbeat

England may have missed out on victory in the final Test and therefore suffered a series defeat at the hands of West Indies, but, finally, they played positive cricket in Trinidad and will take some positives out of the match as they prepare for this summ

New Zealand can still pinch series

Having been outplayed in the first two matches, Australia did well to bounce back in the next two and now they have a great chance to pinch the series against New Zealand by winning Friday's decider in Brisbane

Will England's tail wag or fall limp?

Events of the first Test have caused a reaction in the spreads markets, and England's Tails of the Unexpected, now look a very interesting bet indeed

Near miss will hurt England

West Indies did well to hold out for a draw in the third Test, with the help of a bit of drizzle early on and bad light as the match draw to a close, to retain their 1-0 lead in the series. With two matches to go, it remains to be seen how their failure t

Australia still up against it

Australia gave themselves some much-needed relief by finally getting a win under their belts with victory over New Zealand in the third one-day international on Sunday. They are, though, still 2-0 down in the series, and Tuesday's fourth match could yet s

Series still very much alive

England bounced back well from their Jamaica debacle by doing everything but win the third Test. Though the disappointment will have been strong, if they channel that in the correct way, the series is still very much there for the taking

Kiwis look to finish off Australia

It is a mark of just how bad things are in Australian cricket right now that captain Ricky Ponting, who had been due to be rested for two matches, has been rushed back to their line-up for Sunday's third one-day international against New Zealand. However,

India chase series whitewash

India stand on the verge of their 10th straight one-day international victory as they go into the final match of their series in Sri Lanka. And with a 4-0 lead, they will be looking to wrap up a comprehensive whitewash

New Zealand look to turn the screw

Having lost the first match in the one-day series to continue their sorry run of form of late, the pressure is on Australia going into Friday's second one-day international in Melbourne, with New Zealand looking to keep their foot on the gas as they chase

Do India want the whitewash?

Having already wrapped up the series and shown their total dominance, the big question going into the penultimate one-day international on Thursday is whether India have the desire to maintain momentum and move towards a whitewash, or whether they will ea

Draw shortens after day three

England's bowlers did a decent job on day three of the first Test in Jamaica but could not stop the home side taking a small lead. West Indies have the chance to extend that lead well past the 50-mark but though they have the edge, the draw is shortening

Two down, three to go

India survived a late rally by Sri Lanka to win the second one-day international and now they lead 2-0, they will be thinking not only of clinching the five-game series but also of a series whitewash
