Awful group to be in.

jondavluc · 13-05-2009, 11:59 PM

This is definitely the most competitive group out of the lot.

I would say Australia and Sri Lanka but I wouldn't be surprised if the West Indies team didn't pull out a victory and got in the super 8.

although Australia should go through

So who misses out then?

In the end, each team has relative strengths and weaknesses. Totally dependent on what occurs game-day, is the nature of the T20 contest. Impossible to compare squads, past form, pitch conditions.

Who's to know if Mendis will take 5 wickets against Australia? Gayle score 80 off 42 against Sri Lanka? Warner and Watson to score 100 in the first 12 overs against West Indies. Will be a great contest between the sides.

Hey sorry
i didn't say i want to see Australia lose
i always support Australia after pakistan gets out of the tournament lol
i was just guessing that i feel West indies & srilanka go through

dossa · 14-05-2009, 10:27 PM

Australia should win this group with Sri Lanka close behind and West Indies losing by lots.

four_or_six · 14-05-2009, 11:21 PM

This group could easily have one team win a match. What happens then, run rate? Seems a bit of a daft way to organise things.

Naumaan · 15-05-2009, 12:31 AM

Well if this group ends up having 2 points each team & teams go through on run rate basis, it'll be unfortunate for the 3rd team
cuz already this is the most difficult group
cuz other groups 've 1 relatively easy team so it'll be unfortunate for the 3rd team in this group
