The actual clash in the T20 World Cup 2012 can be seen from today. With the top eight teams emerging after the departure of the lesser known teams the contest begins. Tough competition on the anvil that is sure to keep you on the edges. The eight teams are divided into two groups. Group One consists of England, New Zealand, Sri Lanka and West Indies. Group Two is of teams like India, Australia, Pakistan and South Africa.

The first set of matches begin today between Sri Lanka vs New Zealand and England vs West Indies. While Team India's ordeal shall start on Friday in the ultimate encounter with Australia, at R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo. This shall be the real litmus test to the home team for the super eight stage. Much is expected from Yuvraj Singh who could evenhandedly get the cup back home. And the other to make a turn around of fortunes for the national team are Virat Kohli, Captain Mahender Singh Dhoni, Irfan Pathan, Ravindra Ashwin, Piyush Chawla and Harbhajan Singh. Success of these players is sure to be the winning element for the team.

Apart from them Virender Sehwag who is not in the reckoning since some time, must make a turn around. Then we have Rohit Sharma who has just got into rhythm and he should sustain. Lots of expectations for a home team victory. On the other hand given a thought on the opposition's strengths, they play as a team. This itself is a pillar of strength to the Australians.

Four times World Champions in the ODI are yet to get their fair chance in the T20, so this might be a chance for the Australians, to take charge of the eluding cup. Next their top order is in impeccable shape with batsmen like, David Warner, Mike Hussey and Shane Watson in the peaks of their analysis.

May the best win, but as an Indian lets pray that our team gets home the cup. Being on the edge with Wishesh ringside analysis is sure to interest you more. This is our assurance... keep abreast about the latest, in this intense battle, by checking this space frequently. (With inputs from internet-AW AarKay)
