Australia to lose to South Africa in the Semi.
South Africa to beat Pakistan in the final.
Pakistan cricket to be a laughing stock by playing 2 drug cheats. - EDIT scrap that the two have been ruled out due to convenient injury (funnily neither of the two took PCB drug tests last week too).
Due to that, South Africa to beat New Zealand in the final. Shane Bond to be player of the tournament |

England to do slightly better than the media expects, which means beating kenya & canada, but slightly worse than the fans think, which means not making it far.
West Indies or India to win. Don't ask me why, just a gut feeling. |

now back to the cricket
Ian, india in cricket are exactly like england in the football. Lotsa talent but no team spirit.
And like the english media before every football world cup, during the cricket one the indian media says this is the strongest team in years to play in the tournament and have a great chance to win and come game time - KABOOM:rolleyes:. I guess we still have some traces of the english left in us since 1947 :p
My instinct says this could be Sri Lanka's year. Fantastic team with a great blend of youth and experience and they gel very well together. |

I'm starting to wonder if my NZ prediction was maybe a little ambitious after today's warm up results
Beaten by the Bangers by 2 wickets:haha: |

My problem is that if Jayasuriya, Sangakkara or Jayawardene fail with the bat, they often struggle. With India there are a lot of batsmen who can easily hit it out of the ground, such as sehwag, sacchin, dravid, dhoni & Pathan for example plus others too. Their biggest problem will be if their bowlers are expensive or not.
And Ben, you can't talk about losing a odi to bangladesh :p |
