When and where to watch Tri-series live on TV and streaming in India? – India TV

The tri-series is back. The extinction of tri-series is one of key components of slowly diminishing number of ODIs and 50-over assignments. Three or four teams taking on each other for a week or so to compete in the final and possibly challenge for the trophy, kept the spirit of the ODI format alive before the T20Is and T20 cricket dashed all of it. And most of the ODI cricket which remains today are a select few games, that too before an ICC event. So, this tri-series also takes before bang before the ICC Champions Trophy and at those very venues in Pakistan, Lahore and Karachi.

There are three teams, one is Pakistan, hosts and probably the most in-form team with three overseas series wins in a row and also have played the highest number of 50-over matches in recent times. Then there are New Zealand, who recently did well against Sri Lanka in the three ODIs while South Africa lost to Pakistan and now have a depleted squad with several of their key players, especially batters being involved in the SA20.

Pakistan, hence, start as favourites because of the familiarty with the conditions and several players in form but how will they adjust their combination with no Saim Ayub? New Zealand have most of their Champions Trophy squad available and will hope that Kane Williamson can fire from the word-go. It should be a good series, with South African players being back from hopefully the second game onwards.
