England v Seth Efrica is naturally top of the bill for mine, as it always is. Has never (bar 1995\96) been a dull contest since readmission. Both New Zealand v England and England v New Zealand should be good, too, and let's hope as many players are fit as possible. Get some nice green surfaces and we should see some mighty fine bowling figures.

Naturally, Australia v India and Pakistan v Australia could be either sensational, or damp-squib. And completely agree with those suggesting Pakistan need bouncy, seaming pitches against Australia - time to start the *Official* tour thread to discuss there IMO.

1st.Australia in Pakistan no doubt for me, i'm hoping Pakistan have Akhtar/Asif/Gul fit that will be a good challenge. Not sure how big Australia in India will be next year especially if some Indian legends retire it would take something special out of that series IMO.

2nd. South Africa in Australia with the possiblity of seeing Steyn/Morkel & Lee/Tait should be very good stuff.

3rd. South Africa in England especially if England have the best XI possible.

4th. Australia in Windies for family reason is a very big series

Well Australia in India is always big and it would be no different next year, and Australia's tour to Pakistan too could be good one if Pakistan can get all their fast bowlers to be fit (though whether the tour would take place or not is an another thing).
South Africa in England and Australia also promise to be good one's.

Whatever it takes!!!
India in Sri Lanka will be interesting, simply because for some funny reason, we don't seem to tour much there, even though it is so near by.

There is talk of a big quadrangular ODI series between Kenya, Ireland Zimbabwe and Bangladesh slotted for September-ish of 2008 probably just before the 2008 Champion's trophy. Other than that that Kenya and will be touring the UK in the summer and if I can save some cash I might actually be able to catch one or two of their ODI's against Scotland or Ireland live

Cricket has been so one-sided of late (India-Pakistan, Sri Lanka-England, Australia-New Zealand, South Africa-New Zealand) that I'm not really keen on anything upcoming. The Australia-India series is slowly building some excitement as I'm really hoping that India can do more than I expect them to. But on the whole cricket doesn't seem worth watching at the moment. Too lopsided.

South Africa in England.

Primarily as these are the 2 countires I follow closest, but also I think its an important series for England that they need to win in order to regain a lot of credit that has been lost over the last year or so.
