Which was the best win from the recent Champions Trophy matches?

[Energetic]

orr game?

Pakistan v South Africa
Sri Lanka v India
Bangladesh v New Zealand

I remember there was a debate here that there's a big gap between the top 5 teams, and the bottom 5. Those matches shown otherwise.

I bet the bookies were happy.

#8 vs #1

1: Bangladesh vs New Zealand (Full 50 overs match) No rain interruptions, from 33/4 to chase down the target, how Shakib and Mahmudullah batted against the swinging balls of Southee, Boult and Milne was fantastic to watch.

2: India vs Srilanka ( Again full 50 overs match) India were on top after picking up a quick wicket but Sri Lanka came back hard and chased down the total in style.

3: Pakistan's bowling was great to match, but South Africa choked here. Ab's wicket was an example. Also match wasn't finished because of DLS, would have been nice to have the full game. Rain interruption made it bad.

Srilanka's victory against India was best one because nobody expected this Srioankan team to beat India.


Pakistan's and Bangladesh's victories were pretty much expected.Because S.africans are epic chokers and Newzelanders have a history of losing against bengalis..

SL vs India

 

[Hasan123]

Lankan win was the best. No one gave them a chance. Chasing 300 plus also makes there win extra special.

 

[ToeCrusher2]

Bangladesh vs NZ easily the best comeback win in recent history

 

[StreetSmart]

Pak Vs Saf no one was expecting

 

[MMHS]

I'll rank

1. SRL
2. PAK
3. BD

Reason being,
At the toss if I were to put a win expectation, probably it was like

SRL 10%
PAK 20%
BD 40%

At half way, it's like
SRL 1%
PAK 60%
BD 65%

Therefore, SRL actually created the biggest upset.

At halfway, PAK's chance should have been much higher than 60%, but because of few "Inzi's choice", I wasn't that comfortable.

No credit taken from our win, but we ourselves made it tougher & Soumya's LBW call didn't help either. Ideally, we should have won that with similar margin (by 6 wickets, 4 overs at hand), but much, much comfortably. It's looking great because of 12/3 & 33/4.

Pakistan vs SA was a below average match, in spite of the brilliant result. NZ vs Bangladesh was good, but India vs SL was easily the best match of the lot.

However, I do think that the PAK - SAF match shouldn't come in consideration in terms of dramatization, partially because of predictable target at mid way, but mainly for DWL result.

In terms of upset, it comes as 2nd.
