Who will win World Super Series Finals 2017?

The 10th edition of the World Super series final will see the best badminton players in the world compete to win the last tournament of the year.This blog will analyse this tournament.


Men's singles will be the most exciting contest as the draws are very interesting.Pool A can be clearly said to be the pool of death as three World number 1's are placed in this group.Lee Chong Wei and Son Wan Ho will battle amoungst themselves to make it to the knockouts.This is a very tricky thing as the stature of Lee Chong Wei and Chen Long will be fighting against the form of Son Wan Ho.Lee Chong Wei is having a tough time since 2016 Rio Olympics,he has not been able to find his dominant form which he used to have before 2016.This poses a question mark on his chances of winning this championship.Though he has won this tournament four times and is the most successful player of this tournament.Same goes with Chen Long,he has reached quiet a few finals this year but managed to win only China Open.This tournament will surely be a test of his temperament.Son Wan Ho has also been playing good but will he be able to overcome the challenge of Lee Chong Wei and Chen Long,that would be interesting to see.The other half is pretty straight forward and I feel Srikant and Axelesen are clear favourites to make it to the final four.I feel this tournament has changed a lot over the years.Earlier it was pretty much a battle between Lin Dan,Lee Chong Wei or Chen Long.But now things have changed and four to five players have he ability of winning this championship.
As far as the women's draw is concerned Indian fans would be happy as P.V Sindhu has got a relatively easier draw and will possibly make it to the semi finals.With the absence of Carolina Marin and the top chinese players,Sindhu will clearly try her best to win this years tournament.
Finally I believe that this years World super series finals will be very interesting to see.The thing that has changed over the years in this tournament is the termination of the Chinese dominance.In the last few years this is probably the time where Chinese players have not been able to make it to this tournament in huge numbers.The one's that have reached are seeded in the bottom four except a few.This is the firsttie in many years that I am seeing this.But finally if I had to choose the person who will win the men's singles title,then I would say Lee Chong Wei because in the last week we saw a Lee Chong Wei hungry to win.His win at the Hong Kong Open was a statement about his ability.
Hence I feel Chong Wei will end the year on a higher note.

Ashes 2017:The clash of the Titans

The most awaited test series of the year,Ashes is back with Australia and England battling one more time.This blog about the team analysis of both the teams and who stands a better chance this time. This year's Ashes series is a very different contest all together.Both the teams have a bunch of new players and debutants.This makes the series even more interesting.Talking about the visitors i.e England,the whole batting line up revolves aroung two players Alaister Cook and Joe Root.The whole team is a lot more dependant on these two players.The top order of England having the likes of  Mark Stoneman,David Malan,James Vince is difficult to predict as these players don't have much experience.But the strength lies in the lower middle order of England where there is Moeen Ali,Jonny Bairstow.Both these players have a decent average of 35+.But it would be intersting to see how Moeen Ali plays in the fast and bouncy pitches of Australia.He got exposed to short balls when England ...

Who is better Sachin or Virat?

The hot Question since past three years is Who is a better player Sachin or Virat?                              Sachin Tendulkar                                                        Virat Kohli Well its not easy to compare two people of two different generations but it still can be done because of the fact that both of them have played with each other for good 3-4 years. Lets compare both of them on different aspects-: 1.       Time periods :  When we compare the periods when these two played then they are extremely different. Sachin made his debut at a time when India was emerging as a cricketing country, when we were not the best in any of the things. Sachin came as a hope as to we could say that we hav...
