If Windies bat first, and don't lose more than 1 wicket in the first 10, they'll score 325+, and put NZ under real pressure... Aus and Ind straight-forward winners.... SA - depends on which SA side turns up on the day

yeah' date=' there is a possibility. I think Charles will take the opening position now, and Smith might be dropped or moved down the order. If Charles and Gayle click at the same time, Windies will get off to a flyer. It wouldn't be a bad idea to 'protect' Gayle and have him come 1 or 2 down either if it is swinging a lot[/quote'] West Indies need to kick Samuels out to have any chance of winning. And Dwayne Smith too should be sent lower down the order, thats where he belongs. Charles Simmons Gayle Carter Ramdin Dwayne Smith Sammy Russel Holder Taylor Roach

Windies can do jack shyte against Boult & co. There will be no upsets. SA, IND, AUS and NZ will qualify. SA vs SL will be a thriller :om:

South Africa have got a better pace attack than Australia. Aussies were dependent on Starc and Faulkner is in after an injury. South Africa have world class experienced bowlers in the form of Steyn, Morkel and Philander. Tahir has been a decent leg spinner in the tournament as well. The SCG track will assist him definitely. The main problem with SAF will be the fifth bowling option. I hope they play Abbott instead of Behardien and take the risk of playing an extra bowler because if they are weak anywhere, its the 5th bowling option. Cannot afford to see ABDV, Duminy and co. getting smashed by Lankans FTB in a KO game. Amla Rossouw FAF ABDV Miller Duminy Steyn Abbott Philander Morkel Tahir De Kock has been very ordinary in this tournament, its better if they replace him with an extra bowler and strengthen the 5th bowling option.
Steyn isn't exactly in red hot form right now. Yes...5th bowler is definitely a worry for them. Though I must say - at the moment there is nothing ABDV can't do :haha:

It would be nice if Ind wins the WC by playing BD (QF), Pak (SF) and SL (F) .... Hatred for the "evil" BCCI will be at an all time high :hysterical:

On Aus vs. Pak - Pak bowlers have enjoyed success by bowling short. Aus like to play short stuff, esp. at Adelaide which has short side boundaries .... Will Pak change its bowling strategy for the QF? :hmmmm:

I think highly toss dependent.If SA win the toss and dont post 300,I ll be surprised.Steyn also has to come to the party now,he has been conspiciously mediocre till now. In a nutshell,logic says win the toss,win the game.
steyn had flu and cold. i hope he'll definitely bowl a lot better in KOs.
