Player of...

[Nate]

Who do you reckon will shine throughout this tourney?? Can Tendulkar re-produce his amazing WC form? Can McGrath get back to his best??

Also, new faces. Who do you think are the up and coming stars that could put their stamp on this comp?

And finally, is there any player who has caned this tourney in the past? Can they do their stuff again?

Andrew Symonds will carve em up again and Harmison will get smashed to all parts.....

 

[Dasa]

I predict Pathan will take his 50th ODI wicket in the India vs Pakistan match.

If England stay in the tournament long enough, then Freddie Flintoff will be a good bet. He's scored lots of runs this season, his bowling seems to have a bit more bite to it, and his catching is still spectacular.

Pathan and Tendulkar will shine in this tourny from India

 

[nookie_lk]

i think its gonna be Sangakkara's tournament this time for Sri lanka.... flintoff for England and dravid for india

 

[delkap]

Tendulkar will do good, I predict return to form for Sehwag and Ganguly (top form that is..)

 

[marc71178]

I expect it'll be established stars that shine.

But if they get past the group stage, I've a hunch about Stephen Fleming.

 

[steds]

Can McGrath get back to his best??

I take it you're talking about Glenn McGrath, because if it is Anthony McGrath you're on about, I think we know the answer.

NO!!!

(on second thoughts, he might be doing his best and just isn't good enough at international level)

 

[masterblaster]

AA to take England by storm and take 4 wickets against Kenya and 4 wickets against Pakistan.

*Hopefully I wont jinx the guy*

Actually, I believe it might be time Pathan is brought down to earth, during the Champions Trophy.

I think he is down to earth, he tries his hardest everytime.. and has been successful lately..

It's the fans that hype him... They need to be brought down to earth, Pathan has never declared himself as the fast-bowling saviour for India, as fans make him out to be ..

Exactly what I wanted to say.

 

[Waughney]

I am tipping Gilchrist to shine through and claim this tournament to be his own.

pathan is a champ and i exepct him to continue on with his great form...

 

[masterblaster]

Gilchrist doesn't exactly have a great record in England, but I'm sure he'll put that to rest this time.

 

[Craig]

I think Chris Gayle and Dwayne Bravo will have good tournaments for the West Indies.

yea bravo is a champ, an all-rounder for the future IMO.

Despite their woes, you can't deny they don't have talented players coming through, the key is then to grab hold of it ,develop it and install some team unity (that takes some time), get a positive attitude and bring some profesionalism, as well as looking at fixing up domestic cricket.
