India are ripe for a surprise group-stage knockout IMO. Way too much hype about the team, and unpredictable format. Plus we've been doing very well in recent times in ICC tournaments, feels like we're due a poor performance.

So now that Pakistan has decided to not be an embarrassment, it just hit me how brutal this group actually is.

India may very realistically not qualify. ****.

Thing is tho, India have the hoodoo over Pakistan irrespective of form usually..

Shane Watson promises usual barbs as Australians eye Black Caps at T20 World Cup | Stuff.co.nz

"Look, there's no doubt that the Kiwis always play very well. They always punch above their weight and they've been playing very good cricket, especially over the last couple of years," Watson told Australian media.

**** you, Watto.
I know it's just a stupid cliché, but if people are constantly saying someone punches above their weight, maybe, just maybe, it's not that they're punching above their weight, it's that everyone else is underestimating their weight.

Nope. Other than Australia, everyone punches above their weight.

It's to the point where I'm sure Watto is aware it pisses them off and said it specifically for that reason. I mean the whole article was about how he planned on stirring them up about losing the WC final. If he posted in on CW I would've infracted him; it's 100% troll.

You're giving him too much credit. Watson is not smart or that self aware.

Would you have infracted him if he honestly believed what he's said?
