Rob Key will be Sky Sports man on the ground in India, providing regular video diaries during the ICC World Twenty20.Keep tabs on what Keysy gets up to throughout the tournament on our digital platforms, as he is embedded with the Ireland team initially before teaming up with England.Ahead of his flight, Key talked Karl Pilkington, Kabaddi and curry. Oh, and some cricket…I have been to India a couple of times before; its a great place. I cant wait to explore as much of the country as I can, as well as watch how the teams prepare for the World T20 and see what they get up to on and off the field. Were just days away from the start of the ICC World Twenty20. Who will walk away with the trophy? The producer has me earmarked for a Karl Pilkington-type trip I think!Personally, I want to try a bit of Kabaddi. I used to watch it every Saturday morning, and play it with my kids. Maybe Ill make it along to a professional team and see if I can have a go!Ill have my hands full with Ireland, though. It will be nice to meet up with the squad as I know a few of the guys. Ive played with and against Ed Joyce for years, while Niall Nobby OBrien started off at Kent.Nobby is very much like what you see on camera; he is a lively character, enjoys life and is infectious to be around. Ireland captain William Porterfield explains how the side are preparing for the World T20 in India But I still need to knuckle down and get some sort of pre-season under my belt out there for Kent. Who knows, if they pick up any injuries, they might even draft me in as a specialist fielder!Ireland must be one of the most experienced teams of the associate counties, and they have a great chance to qualify given some of the players they have.Having Boyd Rankin back is big for them, as they generally have always had a strong batting line-up but have lacked a bit of firepower with the ball. Boyd Rankin played just one Test for England, and seven one-day internationals I thought he was unlucky with England as he never really got an opportunity to show what he could do. Hell get that opportunity here, in an environment he is probably more comfortable with.As for England, I reckon they are an outside bet for the tournament. In previous World Cups or World T20s that hasnt been the case - at times theyve almost been lucky to qualify!But now they seem to have a good formula, much like they did when they won in the West Indies in 2010.Im very jealous of the England players just now, as it seems like a really good time to walk into the team. Trevor Bayliss and Paul Farbrace have created a very relaxed and enjoyable culture about the place. South Africa celebrate a final-ball T20I win over England after Reece Topley missed a run out They very nearly won their white-ball series in South Africa - but for a dropped catch in the fourth ODI and a missed run out in the first T20I it might have been very different - and that was without a lot of their players being in particularly good form.If they do find form, they can beat anybody. They have the right players out there, have a good balance to their team, and Id say they are one of at least the top three teams in the competition.Im also looking forward to watching the likes of Chris Gayle in action. Virat Kohli, too, is someone I have always enjoyed watching play. Glenn Maxwell is another. Chris Gayle is one of the batsmen Rob Key is most looking forward to watching in the World T20 I think were going to see some extraordinary cricket in this World T20 as conditions will generally be bat-friendly.Plus, Ill be looking to sample some local cuisine. Youre best off going with whatever curry you can rather any home cooking.

North Carolinas path to finishing last season as an NCAA Tournament runner-up included a 101-86 victory over Indiana in the Sweet Sixteen at Philadelphia.Im not going to go out and make my reservations for the Final Four, Tar Heels head coach Roy Williams said after the Wisconsin win.

He celebrated national titles in 2005 and 2009.Indiana (4-1), ranked third before losing in overtime at Fort Wayne and dropping 10 spots, could be without its leading scorer in junior guard James Blackmon Jr., who is questionable with a left knee injury. The 20.5-point scorer, who also leads the team in 3-pointers with 15 out of 32 attempted (.469), missed Sundays 85-52 home rout of Mississippi Valley State.Blackmon has a lengthy history of significant knee injuries.

We have to polish some things, especially on the offensive side. We need to move more and get a little better spacing. Sometimes we get caught standing there. And we always have to keep up our defensive intensity and effort.Indiana sophomore forward OG Anunoby bounced back from a flu-shortened scoreless game with a career-high 21 points Sunday to boost his scoring average to 11.8 points.
