    "editor1": "<p>June 18 (CRICKETNMORE) - The defending Chaampion &nbsp;India will take on arch-rival Pakistan in the final of Champions Trophy 2017 at the Oval on Sunday. The two teams are looking to have their best XI in this crucial match.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Though Pakistan received good news in Mohammad Aamir being declared fit, India are now sweating over the fitness of Ravichandran Ashwin. The off-spinner, while practising on Saturday, injured his knee. Although, he returned half-an-hour later on the field and went about business as usual, there is concern in the side. He played his role in India&rsquo;s win over South Africa and Bangladesh.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/ct2017-final-preview-india-vs-pakistan--28182\">CT2017 Final&nbsp;- India vs Pakistan (Preview)<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>Kohli hinted that the team might not change the winning combination and chose to highlight what Pandya brings to the XI in the form of a batsman. &ldquo;Not looking to change too many things, because I&rsquo;ve said this before, I would back a guy like Hardik who provides you so much balance in conditions where he can be effective as a bowler. And his batting is priceless.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>If you&rsquo;re chasing a total and need eight an over and you&rsquo;ve lost wickets, he&rsquo;s a guy who can still win you the game. That&rsquo;s the kind of belief he has in his ability and we have that belief in him. You know, he can give you a match-winning performance in any game that he plays, and he&rsquo;s a gun fielder as well. It&rsquo;s hard to find a package like that.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&ldquo;You need to back guys like him regularly, and you will get results when the team is in crisis and he gives a match-winning performance. I would not think of changing anything at this particular stage,&rdquo; Kohli said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>With Inputs from Agency<\/p>\r\n",
