Sri Lanka defeated South Africa in the first match of the Champions Trophy. South Africa won the toss and chose to field but were immediately put under pressure by the Lankan batsman. T.Dilshan top scored with 106. SA never looked like they would chase a target of 320 to win. Ajanta Mendis bowled exceptionally well and the South Africans never looked comfortable against him.

NZ trash India in warm up match
India recieved a wake up call in their only warm up match against the Kiwis before the start of Champions trophy. Chasing a huge total of 301 runs India never looked like winning the match and lost by 103 runs.
The pace bowling in abscence of Zaheer Khan looks weak and India have to come up with a solution immediately else even a score of 300 plus wont be enough to contain the opposition. Abhishek Nayar looks promising and warrants a place in the final eleven especially after his performance yesterday(41 runs,36 balls).
