zen Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 Nostradamusism :P SA vs NZ is too close to call Batting: Guptill, McCullum, Williomson, etc. vs. De Kock, Amla, ADBV, Miller, etc. Bowling: Boult, Southee, Vettori, etc. vs. Steyn, Viliander, Morkel and Tahir, etc. And then there is choke which could play a key role :--D Ind vs Aus Aus is a better side on paper in Australia; Ind is a proven performer under pressure. Take your pick (As an Ind's supporter, it is also hard to pick the other team :winky: ) The final - Ind vs. NZ This one is probably going to be like Spain (Ind) vs. Holland (NZ) Soccer WC Final in 2010. Ind as a unit will perform and handle pressure better. From NZ, a few players will constantly threaten Ind (like how Robben did to Spain) but eventually Ind will triumph - 3rd title :isalute:

profster Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 And the Semifinal will be like Brazil v Germany where we triumph over Aussies by a huge margin. +1
zen Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 And the Semifinal will be like Brazil v Germany where we triumph over Aussies by a huge margin. Like Kroos, Ashwin will be the impact player vs. host Aus ----> a 5-er (goals) by Ashwin is coming up at SCG B-> And at MCG, Ind has been simply superb :two_thumbs_up: PS Interestingly, teams that has done relatively well in NZ are playing SF in NZ, while those that have done relatively well in Aus are playing SF in Aus
adi B Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 I want a ind vs saf final but most likely it'll be ind vs nzl
ravishingravi Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Am backing SA to win this. Yes, that's a big call. But I think chokers will turn the corner next two games.
Stuge Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Keep in mind both India, and South Africa were mauled by Australia and New Zealand in warm up matches played recently.
zen Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 Going by the votes in the poll so far, both Ind and NZ are 2:1 favs vs. their respective opponents
jf1gp_1 Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Going by the votes in the poll so far' date=' both Ind and NZ are 2:1 favs vs. their respective opponents[/quote'] Cant go by votes. I know Aussies are firm fav against us yet i voted for India.
zen Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 Cant go by votes. I know Aussies are firm fav against us yet i voted for India. True, but we also don't give the world cup to teams good on paper in particular conditions .... you have to play to win and anything can happen on the day The QF went as per expectations, however I am expecting an upset in the KOs
Sid_SuhaiL Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Keep in mind both India' date=' and South Africa were mauled by Australia and New Zealand in warm up matches played recently.[/quote'] & reverse of that will happen in semies , i.e. India vs SA final although i want India vs NZL.
