kabira Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 as Bangla and Ireland will be whipping boys for other teams in Super 8... SL has to play Aus, WI, SF, NZL, IRL, ENG? WI has to play Aus, SL, SF, NZL, ENG, BAN whereas other 4 teams have 2 easy games in BAN and IRL..so 4 easy points... NZL have huge advantage, Semifinal guaranteed, Same with either of Aus or SA whoever wins the game tomorrow. Link to comment
yoda Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Re: Srilanka and WI have disadvantages No diff. They all have to play each other. If any Ireland and Bang have it tough cause they can't play against themselves. Link to comment
Predator_05 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Re: Srilanka and WI have disadvantages ENG have an excellent chance of making the semifinals now, as do NZ. They will get two free wins over Ireland and Banglastan and are more than capable of upsetting one top seed or the other. Link to comment
apocalypse Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Re: Srilanka and WI have disadvantages WI, Bangladesh, Ireland and England will be out in super 8 Link to comment

If any Ireland and Bang have it tough cause they can't play against themselves. What? They already have 2 points from there.... whereas consider Newzealand...2 points already + two easy games = semifinal guarantted.. same for either Aus or SF. Link to comment

SL beats ENG, they will also get those 2 points. Only thing is SL beat IND as well and are getting nothing in return. They only carry 2 points for an easy victory over BANG. Link to comment

They only carry 2 points for an easy victory over BANG. so they have disadvantage right? Because Bangla will not beat anyone...whereas India would have atleast won against one team.. Westindieas beat Ireland...and they know Ireland cannot beat any other team..so its disadvantage.. whereas consider England, they can beat big boys... Link to comment
Bumper Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Re: Srilanka and WI have disadvantages What disadvantage. The alternatives to BD & Ireland were - Ind & Pak :hic: Link to comment

Think of it as a super 8 with no carry over points and all teams playing the other 7, SL played BANG first and WI played IRL first, NZ played ENG first and SAF played AUS first. What's the difference? Link to comment

So did SL.... so far same.. But now SL cant expect Bangla to win any of their other game..instead if there was India, they would have atleast win one game... Link to comment
