ICC Champions Trophy 2017

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2017 ICC Champions Trophy was a one-day international cricket tournament that took place in England and Wales between June 1st and 18th, 2017. In the final, Pakistan beat India with 180 runs and won their first Champions Trophy.

prehistory

The time slot was originally intended to host the ICC World Test Championship in England. Since it was not possible to find a suitable format for the tournament, it was announced in February 2014 that another edition of the Champions Trophy would be held instead. In the run-up to the competition there were disputes in the world association ICC over the distribution of finances, whereby India reserved the right to boycott future ICC tournaments, such as the Champions Trophy. The Indian association BCCI let the original submission deadline for the cadre pass. With a two-week delay and pressure from media partners, BCCI nevertheless decided to submit a roster.

Stages

Venues for the Champions Trophy 2017

All three selected stadiums will host preliminary round matches and one play-off game each. It was announced on December 17, 2014 that the same stadiums had been chosen as in the previous edition . However, as the 2016/17 UEFA Champions League final will be played in the same time slot in Cardiff , there will be one less game than in 2013.

Attendees

The first 8 of the ODI world rankings on September 30, 2015 qualified for the Champions Trophy:

The qualification of Pakistan instead of the West Indies was not without controversy as Pakistan withdrew from a three-nation tournament with the West Indies and Zimbabwe, in which the West Indies had the chance to overtake Pakistan in order to qualify for the Champions Trophy.

format

The eight teams were divided into 2 groups of 4 teams each. There were two points for a win, one for a draw or no result. If two teams are tied at the end of the group stage, the number of wins counts first and then the net run rate as a decision criterion for placement. The two best in the group qualify for the semi-finals, where the tournament winner is then played off in a play-off format. All games are played on just one day, with the final having a spare day in case of rain.

Squad lists

The official submission deadline for the squad was April 25, 2017, whereby players could be nominated in the event of injury. South Africa named their squad on April 19, Australia and Bangladesh on April 20, New Zealand and Sri Lanka on April 24, England and Pakistan on April 25, and India on May 8, 2017.

Only Tamim Iqbal managed to stay in the game and achieve over 95 runs up to 42.1. However, this was already the seventh wicket at this point and Bangladesh only had 181 runs on their side.

Nevertheless, Australia got off to a good start in their innings, so they scored over 83 runs up to the 16th and 44 runs ahead of their opponent. Bangladesh had mainly bet on fast bowling and so there was a high consumption of time. So the rain came again and ensured that the game was abandoned four overs before the minimum number of overs for a scored innings for Australia.

Dhawan fell there with 68 runs and Virat Kohli came into play. The game was interrupted by numerous breaks in the rain.

South Africa won the coin toss and decided to start at the stroke. First they achieved a moderate run rate, which they could only accelerate briefly until the first wicket fell in the 9th over. Then South Africa stabilized and with wickets constantly losing, only David Miller could achieve a fifty with 75 runs.

Quiton de Kock scored 53 runs as the inaugural batsman , but the run rate was low. The Indian bowlers were always able to score wickets, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah two each. This resulted in South Africa finishing its innings in the 45th over with just 191 runs. India completed its innings without endangering its goal. Shikhar Dhawan with 78 runs and Virat Kohli with 76 runs played a decisive role in reaching the goal in the 193rd over.

Pakistan won the coin toss and decided to start as a field team. Sri Lanka started with a medium run rate and lost her first wickets in the 5th over and two more wickets in the 15th and 16th. It was first Noroshan Dickwella who kept Sri Lanka in the game with his 73 runs. Between the 32nd and 35th over it was mainly the Pakistani bowlers Mohammad Amir and Junaid Khan who ensured that Sri Lanka lost four more wickets. The following partnership between Asela Gunaratne and Suranga Lakmal was able to add another 46 runs before Hasan Ali broke this with his third wicket and Sri Lanka finished the innings with 236 runs. Pakistan's response started out promising. Fakhar Zaman scored 50 runs and in 12th over it was 74-1. But then Sri Lanka managed to gain the upper hand more and more. Three wickets from Nuwan Pardeep put Pakistan under pressure and lost her 6th wicket in the 26th over and had another 100 runs to score. Sri Lanka's numerous chances for further wickets remained unused and so it was Sarfraz Ahmed with 61 runs and Mohammad Amir with 28 runs that brought Pakistan over the finish line. This made Pakistan the last team to qualify for the semi-finals against England. Sarfraz Ahmed became the man of the match.

Pakistan won the coin toss and started as a field team. England started with a high run rate, but the run rate continued to decline after the first wicket fell in the 6th over. Jonny Bairstow with 43 runs and Joe Root with 46 runs were able to earn numerous runs, but especially the second half of the batsman was hardly able to score against the Pakistani bowler runs. It was especially Hasan Ali who, with his 3 wickets for 35 runs, was able to limit England to 211 runs. Pakistan's response started at a lower run rate, but managed to avoid losing a wicket until the 22nd over. The opening batsman Azhar Ali with 76 runs and Fakhar Zaman with 57 runs were so successful that it became clear early on that England would not reach the final. With only one more wicket left in the 33rd over, Pakistan reached its goal in the 38th over and thus reached the final. Hasan Ali became the man of the match.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar , Jasprit Bumrah and Kedar Jadhav each scored two wickets for India. India's response started with a high run rate. Bangladesh could only achieve one wicket in the 15th over and so Rohit Sharma with 123 runs and Virat Kohli with 96 runs achieved enough to clearly dominate Bangladesh. India reached its goal in the 41st over and qualified for the final. Rohit Sharma was selected as the Man of the Match.

Pakistan wins with 180 runs

India won the coin toss and decided to start bowling. Pakistan appeared safe at the start with its inaugural batsman. In the 4th over, a wicket was withdrawn due to a no ball, thus clearing the way for the two batsman to survive the first over without damage. When India started putting pressure on in the middle of the inning, Pakistan was able to hold back. By the time Azhar Ali fell in the 23rd over, he had 59 runs, while Fakhar Zaman had 114 runs by the 34th over. As a result, India failed to prevent Pakistan's progress. Two wickets in the 40th and 43rd over and 46 runs by Barbar Azam and 57 runs by Mohammad Hafeez meant that Pakistan had 338 runs at the end of its inning and four wickets were lost. India's response was disrupted early on. In the first over, Rohit Sharma lost his wicket for no run, while in the third over, captain Virat Kohli failed after his stroke in the ball was previously dropped. By the 14th over, India had already lost five wickets in only 58 runs. Mainly responsible was Mohammad Amir , who had scored 3 of the wickets. The second half was dominated by bowler Hasan Ali , who also achieved three wickets. India continued to lose wickets and the last one fell in the 31st over with 158 runs. Pakistan's victory marked the first time she won the Champions Trophy and won the first ICC-ODI tournament since she won the Cricket World Cup in 1992 . Fakhar Zaman was named Man of the Match.
