With the Champions Trophy just a couple of days away Michael Atherton, Nasser Hussain and Shaun Pollock preview the tournament and predict who will come out on top.

England come into the tournament on the back of an impressive series win over the No 1 ranked ODI side in the world, South Africa, and many consider Eoin Morgan's side favourites on home soil.

All three of our pundits believe they will at least make the semi-finals with Nasser and Shaun in agreement that the last four will be made up of England, Australia, South Africa and India.

However, they differ in their opinion of who will come out on top.

Also up for the discussion were the players to watch - will Virat Kohli put a disappointing IPL season behind him and fire India to glory? Can an in-form and more mature David Warner inspire Australia? Or will an exciting young prospect take the chance to announce himself to the world?

After Jonny Bairstow's half-century at Lord's, England's selection dilemmas were explored and Shaun explains why the current South Africa side are capable of shaking off the Proteas' "chokers" tag.
