ICC Champions Trophy 2013

World's top eight teams are set to battle it out for One-Day International (ODI) cricket's second-most prestigious trophy also termed as mini World Cup.

The teams will be divided in two groups. While Australia, Sri Lanka, England and New Zealand are set to take on each other in Group A, India, South Africa, West Indies and Pakistan are placed in Group B. Top two teams of both the groups will make it to the semi-finals of the tournament.
