Suckistan losses the first game! Woo hooo!!! Anybody else paying attention? I'm going in April to Barbados to watch three matches in the Super 8 stage. Cant freakin wait!!!
Damn I wish I could go see a game down in the West Indies. But yes nice to see Pakistan lose, and hopefully the Indian team gets their **** together and shows up like they did in the last world cup.
i dont even wanna see suckistan go to semi-final....excited that west indies beat them in first match....pool A seem hardest as both austrilia and south africa are in the pool....south africa is ranked number 1 in world at moment and austrilia is not far back.....could anyone explain how they pool off, meaning how are they placed in pool A,B,C,D? man inida has looked good in practice matches, hopefully they can continue streak
I can't speak for the others but I am. It's like any other international tournament, you root against your natural rivals. Nothing against Pakistan, but here I'd rather see them lose just like any Rockets fan would love to see the Mavs stumble.
Ah yes, Clutchfans Hangout Indo-Pak FLAMING CRICKET SMACK WARS. A very underappreciated phenomenon. I remember inadvertently starting one a while back, I felt like Oppenheimer..... http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=100410&page=3&pp=20
been streaming it over the net the last two days. i wonder if you get it in HD with the dish network service? I doubt it
Will be interesting to see what Australia does when Symonds returns. They are set on Watson playing yet Hodge has secured his spot you would think. Hopefully they can take out the tournament and send off McGrath and you would be pretty safe to say this would be Gilly's last WC
Watch out for the Kiwis. New Zealand just had an amazing series of one day matches against Australia a few weeks ago. The Black Caps are pretty fired up (not that I know much about cricket, but I watched these matches and it was inspiring).
Pakistan have nothing to offer. No bowling and their openers suck! India team is inconsistent and will need miracles to pass SA and Aus. W. Indies have a young team so they will need full support from home crowd. New Zealand will choke again in semis. No hope for England. Sri Lanka has good pitching but their bating requires more. SA and Aus are your finalists. And SA finally wins their 1st ever World Cup. My final prediction. Aus 268 SA wins by 4 wkts.
Someone would have to pay Pakistan enough money not to lose. Oh wait! Lol. Cricket is not cricket without a good match fixing scandal.
I just cant get into this World Cup....maybe it will draw me in when the important games come alone. I will say this though, if we (Australia) play RSA in the final we WILL beat them. They will fold under pressure like they always do!
