Especially if they can play England in every game.

India start as favourites, imo.

SA should do well if they don't choke as usual.
India will probaly get to final and choke in final as well.

I've picked india but i think SL or Pakistan might take this one.

In that case go and back them as Australia will be favourites with the Bookmakers and they are the ones who decide who are the favourites

Australia have had loads of time and have never won the Champions Trophy, they will want to get in some form before the Ashes.
Sri Lanka look in good form to and the conditions will suit them to some extent.
Pakistan and India will also be helped by the conditions and both will be wanting to win badly in India for different reasons
It will be a suprise to see any other team win the Champions Trophy since teams not based in the region tend to take some time to settle

Pretty fair assessment of those three sides' chances then.
