World Cup Astrology: ?India will play in final?

[DesiChap]

On a detailed analysis of planetary positions, practical possibilities, the likely performances of players and, more importantly, the fortunes of captains the following possible outcome can be expected in the cricket World Cup. If the time of commencement of the World Cup matches is any indication, the defending champions, Australia, are staring at dethronement. The semi finalists would be the West Indies, Australia, South Africa and India. Australia and India may play the final on April 28. But there is always an element of uncertainty in astrology. The above predictions would be true if the squad remains constant. The West Indies, one of the dark horses, have a good chance based on forces that cannot be gauged by astrological parameters alone. Apart from the pointers horoscopes provide us at the time of the final and the prize distribution ceremony, the strength of the captains? chart gives Rahul Dravid?s men an edge over the others in the Cup. On the flip side, it is clear that the event would be dogged by erroneous umpiring and heated arguments. The position of Sun and Saturn indicate relocation of a game around April 5 to 10. The forecast for individuals is rosy for India. Dravid, Tendulkar, Dhoni, Pathan and Ganguly will shine, while Yuvraj may be an outstanding contributor to the team?s steady performance. Kallis, Hall, Kemp and Telemachus of South Africa; Pollard, Lara, Simons, and Bravo of the West Indies; Silva, Vaas, Jayasuriya, Sangakkarra, Muralitharan and Kulasekara of Sri Lanka; Ponting, Johnson, Watson, Clarke, Hayden, both the Hoggs and Bracken of Australia will have a productive tournament. Kumble and McGrath may disappoint their fans. We turn to astrology to know things in advance regarding terrestrial events. Cricket is no exception. The indications may be casual or attractive depending on how an individual views astrology, which gives a peek into zodiac so that the results of competitions can be forecast. After a thorough scrutiny of players and nations in the World Cup, I wish to lay before the public my predictions. As early as in the 2nd century BC, Varahamihira, the Father of Astrology, wrote in his Brihat Samhita about wars and sports activities. He was in fact referring to new moons and full moons occurring within or less than 14 or 15 days. By stretching such principles to suit the available conditions now, there was a lunar eclipse on March 4, 2007 and it?s followed by a solar eclipse on March 19. The stage is set for a major sports event that will affect the lives of millions of people. Therefore, the cricket World Cup is indicated by the alignment of stars. The 16 teams at the Cup have specific destinies based on their stellar configuration. Australia, India and England should start their campaign well along with the hosts. The form of India and England might dip around March 21 as a result of their players? blunders and the strength of their opponents. They may lose points in the Super Eight stage. Their woes will, however, be over after March 7 and both teams will rise to the occasion riding on some extra-ordinary individual performances. In the same breath, Australia?s fortunes will suffer a little bit for a fortnight from March 31. But the Aussies are tipped to play gritty cricket once their bad period gets over. At the outset, the going will not be good for Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Pakistan will particularly be affected by detrimental team combination and suicidal game plan. The Lankans, on the other hand, will be hamstrung by their players getting injured during the course of the mega event. New Zealand, the Netherlands, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Bangladesh, Bermuda and Canada will start the tournament brightly. The Kiwis are in for a gradual decline with their players not carrying out the tasks assigned to them. Poor fielding too will hit them hard. Sedate start is predicted for South Africa but they will peak nicely towards the end. The following dates may serve as turning points in the tournament: March 18, 19, 21 and 31; April 6, 7, 14, 19, 24 and the early morning of 28. V. Anand is a lawyer and cricket astrologer. He made some startling predictions before the last Champions Trophy and for several other significant series. http://www.greatandhra.com/cricket/worldcup/india_final.php

u shud prollly read this.. very funnny.... and also dont forget to go thru the commments by pakis.. freakin funny indeed.... http://blogs.cricinfo.com/pakspin/ March 12, 2007 Only Australia block the road to victory Posted by Kamran Abbasi at 15 hours, 46 minutes ago in World Cup 2007 Pakistan have nobody to fear in the tournament ? Getty Images Pakistan's preparation for the World Cup has been a rollercoaster of hope and despair, a journey that has driven supporters to the edge of madness. Many of you already consider me to be a raving lunatic and to those people I offer further evidence. Pakistan have nobody to fear in this tournament and might just have the mix of experience and hunger to lift the trophy. Experience resides in the right place, the mighty middle order. Michael Slater questioned their ability to win matches but he is sadly mistaken. This is a double mistake if the pitches continue to play anything like they did in the warm ups. What this trio have lacked is the support of the openers but Caribbean conditions will offer Pakistan a genuine opportunity to establish an opening partnership of substance. Indeed, both Imran Nazir and Mohammad Hafeez will be hungry for success. Hunger will also drive the bowling attack. Umar Gul, Mohammad Sami, and Danish Kaneria - my first choice attack depending on pitch conditions - have enough experience but also something to prove. There should be nothing stale about Pakistan's bowling attack, with Azhar Mahmood, Shahid Afridi, and Mohammad Hafeez a worthy support cast. Since Rana Naved-ul Hasan, Iftikhar Rao, and Yasir Arafat have something to offer - death bowling, consistency, or all-round ability - Pakistan have plenty of bowling options. Even in the absence of Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammad Asif, it is a bowling attack that can potentially compete with any in the tournament. It also comes with the added bonus of being under-rated by most cricket pundits, an estimate based more on ignorance than sound judgment. Australia remain the only team that pose a special challenge. Ricky Ponting, Adam Gilchrist, and Andrew Symonds were three good reasons why Australia's form has slumped in recent weeks. Indeed, Symonds offers wonderful balance to the Australian team. If those three fire Australia will be tough to beat, and that's before the possibility of Shaun Tait's speed and reverse swing creating a sensation in this World Cup. Yet, although England and New Zealand wouldn't be my favourites to win, they have done the other leading teams a favour by reminding Australia of their mortality. Pakistan have arrived with a deceptively strong squad of players, some of whom must make a name for themselves in this tournament just as Inzamam did fifteen years ago. At this moment in time the road to victory looks far less difficult than it might have been. Much hinges, once again, on Inzamam's leadership and all Pakistan supporters will be rooting for him--in Urdu, English, and many different languages--to rise to the occasion. In a few hours time we will get the first indication of whether or not Pakistan have the intent to match their considerable potential. I have a crazy notion that the lunacy of the last six months must have been building to a glorious finale.

Possibly one of the most amusing pieces of nonsense I've ever read. Gives Astrology a bad name. The Windies and India to make the last 4. McGrath to disappoint his fans. Player of the World Cup. Johnson to have a productive tournament. Didn't play a game.

[Rajiv]

Actually, if you challenge these idiots..they will come up with another stuff like " another planet intercepted which changed the fortunes " etc Media shouldn't pay heed to this at all, this is not only in sport but also in politics

If u carefully re-read the piece they never mention the year tho.

The same Kamran Abassi had given Yousuf a dressing down couple of years or three ago. He had said Yousuf is not good enough to play for Pakistan or something after that 3 test series England played against Pakistan in Pakistan sometime in 2005 I think. Rest is history as they say. :teeth_smile:

This has got to be one of the most hilarious threads in history.
