Predicting India and Australia to go through. West Indies' batting is shaky and relies too much on Chris Gayle....although it'll be fun to watch if Pollard plays like he did in the IPL.
Same reasoning for SL, that no one except Jayawardene seems to be in good touch. If Jayawardene falls early, it's going to be tough for them to claw back into a game.
India easily looks the most solid team, with most of the players in good nick, and the bowlers looking good, led well by Zaheer and Nehra.

WI have quite a few all rounders with them. Gayle backed with Brave and Pollard are gonna be tough. If SL can get Dilshan to fire that will make things interesting as well. India and Aus look pretty good so far. Hoping India can pull one over the Aussies on Friday. Easier said than done though haha...
Rofl yeah...I have a feeling Gambhir is going to come into form come Friday.....and England to pull one over Pakistan tomorrow.
WHOA Afgans are fighting hard. If they can work on there problems with the short ball in the future I think we will see them more often in these kind of tournaments.
Lol yeah short balls completely fuck them over...I don't see them winning this match though....Dale Steyn's 4 overs will be through before they realise what's hit them.
Yeah I didn't say they will win. But the bowling effort is commendable. I thought SA would get 180+ with there batting line-up. At least they tried to make a match out of it.
EDIT: I think we are in for the lowest total ever in T20 history,lol...

Lol 32/8 I didn't expect anything less...their dream nearly turned into an embarrasment
Wow India really beaten badly...although Dirk Nannes doing well benefited me quite nicely :)
Pathetic display. I thought the plan was to NOT LOSE WICKETS IN THE FIRST 6 OVERS <_<
Rofl exactly...it's like the plan was whoever plays the worst pull shot wins..
who cares you got your trumps right. That's what matters xD
1st is significantly better than mid 20s
Oh your talking about the overall position. Trust me your not gonna be able to sustain it for long. Unless of course your trumps get MoM awards for the next few games.
EDIT: LOL caught of no ball ;P

Lol dammit didn't get my trumps right, I was counting on McCullum. But what a match!!
Eh, I've just gone with the most solid performers (Kallis / Watson / Jayawardene), not got any other trump right :P
and now KP is missing the next game, damn :(
Must win game for Windies and India.....need to get my trumps right
ROFL story of my fantasy league right there. Even during the IPL I almost never went against Sachin because I wanted him to do well,lol....
What a joke of a team this is. Jadeja has now knocked us out of 2 WC's in a row.
YES Gayle my man...trumped a truckload
That six that hit the roof was amazing
Tell me about it....although with 30 required from 12 the match was still in the balance. The run-out killed it though.
