30/09/2008 After a dominant performance in their own backyard in the inaugural ICL 20s tournament at Panchkula, the Lions are one of the formidable sides in the forthcoming Grand Championship. Dinesh Mongia, TP Singh & Chetan Sharma ably supported by their charismatic captain Chris Cairns forms the batting backbone for the Lions. The inclusion of the solid opening Australian batsman Mathew Elliott into their batting fold is expected to bring consistency to the Lion's bating line up. The bowling led by the accurate Daryll Tuffy, Andrew Hall backed by the all round skills of Cairns & Dinesh Mongia, gives the Lions side a well balanced look. india v australia v bangladesh v new zealand v pakistan v england v sri lanka v south africa v west indies v scotland v zimbabwe v ireland odi test t20 twenty20 day 1 2 3 4 5
