I'm starting these early this week... I'll add your matches as soon as both managers have given there teams in...
Division 1
South Australia V Karnataka
A new week, another mouth watering clash between the two giants. If fans hadn't seen enough last week, this week they're at it again. Last week Dawson stole the show in guiding SA home, however this week he's out injured and Karnataka will be looking to exact revenge.
The lead up for South Australia wasn't ideal, with Broncoman spending much time on the phone to his old players at ACT, it was rumoured that on Tuesday night he actually drove down there to be with them not his current team. The South Australian team however have vowed to put this behind them and take this weeks big clash.
Once again I see Karnataka going in as favourites despite last weeks loss. Their batting strength an experience should shine through over 4 days. The young South Australian side doesn't have the years in WCC that the Karnataka boys do. Keegan, Wadeker and Jones all looked potentially dangerous with the bat last week and it's hard to see not one of them standing up and holding the SA attack at bay.
Much has been said about the Karnatak bowling line up, especially by those close to the South Australian side in Blewy and Broncoman. This, I only believe will make them stand up even more this weekend. Also I see the South Australian batting line up as being vulnerable to high pressure, and a 5 day match against SA's strongest rivals is as much pressure that there is in WCC.
This game should live up to all expectations, a showcase of top cricket. However Karnatak should win comfortably without being pushed to hard.
