Predictions

[andmark]

Safe, conservative and boring, or dangerous, unusual and bizarre, does anyone have any predictions of pretty much any nature for this tournament? I'm thinking India to win the tournament with Kohli being the top scorer. I reckon weather will also have an influence on proceedings, with numerous matches being affected by rain, leading many to question why England hosts so many tournaments. Afghanistan will give a good account of themselves also, winning at least one match. Fire away with your own predictions.

India England final, then hard to call it, who ever dosent choke lol

if its an india-england final, its an easy call.

England will sputter. Indian teams have been mentally very strong during the past decade or so. Their record in the finals is second best at least, if not the best during the last decade or so.

New Zealand will win and then Ross Taylor will ride away with the trophy into the mist, never to be seen again. Everyone in the world will be crying tears of bittersweet joy.

I would love to see Taylor do what McCullum couldn't, would be some sweet irony in that

Australia to lose every game. Yes, even the one against Afghanistan.

This will be the 4th time in history an Australian side has not made it to the semi final stage. The last occurrence of this being in 1992.

Thought it was a semi. Ah well. Right now Australia have won finals more times than they've missed out on the semi finals.
