[Norman]

I thought the groups were already decided but i was wrong. 

 

Hope we get a tough group with at least 2 of Australia, New Zealand and England in it. But most likely will not. 

 

Edit: Here are the groups. 

 

Group 1 -

 

England

Australia

West Indies

South Africa

A2

B1

 

 

Group 2 -

 

India

New Zealand

Pakistan

Afghanistan

A1

B2

TBH, Australia (even if they are full strength) are a below average team while playing in asia.  They get whitewashed repeatedly in T20s in UAE against Poyz.   I remember them losing every single match in the group stage of 2014 T20 WC as well. (held in Bangladesh).    Yes, NZ and Eng are tough teams to beat anywhere.  

[Serpico]

i thought india, england and south Africa were in one group and wi, nz, aus and pak in other? 

[R!TTER]

Let's hope we avoid Pak, bored of the same old cliched/fake/promoted rivalry by ICC

Hope we play Wi and nz in groups, so we can avoid them in semis. 

 

also India, Pak should be in the same group, icc would be stupid to trust Pak to qualify for semis and play India

They smoked us 2-0 last time around in India and drew 1-1 before that as well. But yeah in UAE, they may struggle but they have enough firepower.

They smoked us last time in India..  I remember Maxwell belted us a century & smashed our bowlers.  In UAE though they may find it tough as it is even slower than India & outfields aren't as quick...  Bigger grounds allow our bowlers to bowl their variations well. 

Even in WT20 2016 it took a Kohli's ATG T20 knock to beat them.

Their threat level though is not as high as WI Eng & Saffers(full strength)

Hopefully we are paired with England, West Indies, Australia and Afghanistan. We're going to lose anyway in the semifinal. I'd rather have clown lose his face in the initial round.

Imagine WI vs India at Sharjah a virtual KO..  Damn that group would be explosive. 

But Pretty sure we will get Poyzz Saffers & one of Eng/NZ.  

[Lone Wolf]

Now Vikrant Gupta says

India

Pak

NZ

Afg

Qualifier

[Lone Wolf]

Lmao...  Poyzz will be out of the tournament that's for sure now.  Hopefully Sri lanka gets qualified into our group & complete the gang bang

Hope we are not in the same group with Pakistan. This just shows the hypocricy of BCCI. We forget about soldiers life when it comes to ICC events but bring that excuse for playing bilaterals. 

 

Either we dont play Pakistan at all or play with them regularly. This middle ground approach is not worth it.

[Lone Wolf]

Ind-Pak is Box office, if u think they ll leave that u havent been noticing 

Every ICC Wc schedule post 2007 Wc they try their best to make sure Ind-Pak play a game

group A is group of death

[Lone Wolf]

Look at that Group 1..  Team coming off from those would be severely battle hardened.  This is almost similar to the one in WT20 2016.

[rageaddict]

What is this full Fixture fixing to make sure India goes through to the knock outs.  It seems that the  purpose of these groups is to make sure India stays in the tournament for as along as possible to milk more money. That's all, it's not a proper competition.

 

Pehle India Pakistan match set Kar Diya , uske baad India ko halwe group main daal Diya. 

 

Both the groups look so imbalanced .

Group 2 is way too easy to qualify. Thanks BCCI.
