Being Neighbours doesn't win you cricket matches IMO.

England and Australia will outplay Zimbabwe I'm fairly certain of that.

A pretty obvious pool.

It helps in that there will be lot of local support . But I agree that may not change the outcome.

Julian87 · 29-07-2007, 05:44 AM

No chance in hell of beating either team.

Cameron-Moss · 01-08-2007, 08:23 AM

Its obvious who's going to win,

Dont know how to spell sorry.

that group will just be like warm up games for england and australia as thr both gunna qualify its just who is first n who is 2nd

I'd be weary of Zimbabwe in a 20/20 game, and i'd never underestimate them.

Most of the players in the top order are big hitters so if they get a bit lucky they could put a worthy score on the board and the added pressure on the other team knowing they are favourites could throw a spanner in the works.

Thats not a bias prediction, just a possibility.

Scaly piscine · 30-08-2007, 04:56 AM

Zimbabwe's bowling will get annihilated however.

Flem274* · 07-09-2007, 01:06 AM

Hmm England might put up more of a fight against the aussies then one would think. I like the look of this Broad kid and as long as Tremlett and Plunkett don't play they have a resonable line up.

And can someone ban Piertersonrocks?

Julian87 · 10-09-2007, 11:49 PM

My tip of the cup is for Matsikenyeri to have a blinder. His dinky and up tempo starts and energy are what 20/20 is all about imo. Plus, he shouldn't have to face the likes of Lee batting at 5 or 6. I could see him, Taibu and Sibanda doing some damage, especially against some of England's bowlers.

Anyone know television times in Eastern Aus??

aussie · 11-09-2007, 01:32 AM

Australa & England best XI should be:

AUSTRALIA:

Gilchrist
Hayden
Ponting
Symonds
Hussey
Watson
Clarke
Lee
Hogg
Bracken
Hilfenhaus - could be Australia's surpise package with the word that conditions in SA ATM would assist his type of bowling.

ENGLAND:

Maddy
Prior
KP
Freddie
Collingwood
Shah
Wright
Mascarenhas
Snape
Broad
Anderson/Kirtley - regardless of his superb superb Anderson bowling in the slog over is still bad, Kirtley they say is a death specialist these days so hopefully if picked he lives up to that rep..
