If Windies beat India
South Africa beat Pakistan
Australia beat India
that means no Asians in the Semi Finals.... played in Asia :laugh: and the fans like ODI's more
which would mean the semis would look like
New Zealand vs Australia
West Indies vs South Africa
YAY!!
all 3 results are not bad to bet on...
1) Windies have had the wood over India
2) RSA Full strength should beat a Pak without 3 of their best players arguably
3) 50-50 for me, Aussies play well back against the walls though
Could happen.
Don't know about the whole "Yay!" thing, but...
It'd be a big suprise, would have gotten some good odds on that at the start of the series.
The whole YAY!! thing seems a bit over the top to me, Asian batsman are generally the most entertaining and stylish to watch so I'd like to see atleast India go through to the semifinals. Paksitan or South Africa doesn't really bother me, both are good sides.
i was actually yay`ing because i like Australia vs NZ battles lol
and i dunno Windies, South Africa, Aussie, Kiwi have also some very stylish batsmen
Won't happen
Tbh, I'd much prefer for the West Indies to play Pakistan if they reach the semi-final round.
Why? You guys seem to have our number (India's).Quote:
