I think Australia can win this...they have good bowlers and if their batters perform as per their abilities, it will be Punter holding the cup!

India does not have the bowling line up which can put a lot of pressure on the batsmen.

South Africa is struggling poorly against SL spinners here but if they can make the semis and doesnt play SL in the final, they certainly have a great chance.

Good article (and so were the previews of both groups, thanks).

As an NZer I have faith that despite the talk of Australia being on the downer they will play well when it matters and take the title, again... *sigh*. Ponting will score a century in the final. History will repeat, South Africa will choke and India will flatter to deceive, losing to Sri Lanka in the semis or Australia in the final.

Australia or South Africa to win it according to me.

India's batting is the weak link. They are the dark horses along with Sri Lanka. I don't see Pakistan, England or New Zealand winning it. The less said about West Indies, the better.

India or Australia for me to win the whole thing, i don't think south africa will win it because being at home the pressure on them to win this tournament is huge, and i think the pressure will get to them in the later stages of the tournament.

and you never know England just might be the dark horse in this competition.

Only South Africa and the three subcontinent nations have a chance. England will probably surprise everyone by semi-ing.
