Unless the Indian side stops treating T20 as T10, we're not going to win.

I'm backing the Pakistanis; somewhat a feel-good story considering how little cricket they've played together recently. And also, it would really suit the enigmatic cricketing history of the nation.

Heh @ the deluded NZ fans.

India and SA are the favourites. Although I dunno if the conditions will suit either of them particularly.

We're in the top 4-5 and T20 is a lottery. Only one thing is for sure, England are going to fail massively.

All the teams outside of England and Bangladesh have a chance. Not sure how Pakistan and Sri Lanka go in this form. Have seen Australia, South Africa, West Indies, England and New Zealand.

Definitely on form at the moment it's going to be either South Africa or India. India's middle order can be inconsistent and unstable at times if their Gambhir, Sehwag guns get broken, so went with SA.

T20 is for wussies, even though we are still the champs. That is one title that would not make me gloat with pride.
