How do you guys rate the England's team chances in the WC'03???
I really doubt England are behind the West Indies, England crushed a similer team when they came over to England, they even had Lara then. England have since drawn with NZ and India and both England and India crushed Sri Lanka in England who you have put as 3rd...England should be at least 5th-6thOriginally posted by CricketGuru
1)Australia
2)South Africa
3)Sri Lanka
4)Pakistan
5)India
6)New Zealand
7)WestIndies
8)England
9)Zimbabwe
....
This is just a guess so no harsh criticism.. :rolleyes: thanx
It doesn't matter at all whether England is better than NZ/SL and Windies or not, this is because those teams are in other group , which is a bit weaker and they will most probably make it to the super six.England will most probably miss the buss from group A while WI will most probably fail to reach the super six from group B!Originally posted by Rik

And it doesn't take a genius to figure this out....yet....India's batting didn't fire today and it showed how weak they are. Sehwag was their best bowler and a previously thought to be weak WI side crushed them by well over 100 runs. Both these facts tell a story.
It tells that if a side is without two of its best batsmen, then there is a realistic chnce that it will struggle, no matter how talented the substitute are.Originally posted by Bazzaroodoo

Funny that, when Englishmen mentioned that to discuss recent poor results, we were told not to make excuses!It tells that if a side is without two of its best batsmen, then there is a realistic chnce that it will struggle, no matter how talented the substitute are.
In England's case its a never ending story, they will have to live with that.Its almost impossible for England to have a completely fit squad, thast not the case with us!Originally posted by marc71178
