Actually chances are that both Australia and England might boycott their matches against Zimb. If they do that then there is a possibility that Australia might not even top the pool and England would make an early exit from the game.PROUD+ENGLISH said:I think people are seriously under-rating Zim's chances of getting through, as the other half decent teams are inconsistent (especially India and Pakistan but also England). I don't think its inconceivable that both India and Pakistan don't get out of first gear and Zimbabwe take that 3rd spot with England second and Aus first. I like Zimbabwe a lot, and i think their players have had to put up with an almighty amount of crap (ie if other teams refuse to play, then they have their passports taken off them). I wish them well and think they have a good chance of making super sixes but maybe asking too much to get through to semis.
Not necessarily true - just thinking this through - eg Zim have those 4 wins, Australia win all other games bar Eng that's 4 wins, Eng could win all other games bar Pak that's 4 and then Pak could win all games bar Ind which is 4 and India could win 4 games, which puts 5 teams equal and I think if you put their results against each other it would be equal because everyone has won 2 lost 2 against the other 4 sides involved in the tiebreaker. Then it comes down to NRR or whatever. A long shot but could happen!Gilly18 said:If Aus and Eng boycott the Zimbabwe games then Zim will go through for sure because they will beat Holland and Namibia

Akram never gave him the chance to, he got Ponting out though. Symonds blazed away in the middle of the innings. Akhter couldn't have been brought on at that stageanilramavarma said:So, ultimately Akhtar didn't exactly destroy Australia, did he? The Aussies don't look like they are missing Warne too much.
It's because you thinking he was good put too much pressure on Pakistan's answer to AA and he realised he was really not good enough to be in much longer and got himself out.Top_Cat said:And just as I say that, heś gone. Sorry Saleem.
