Is the man of the series decided before the semifinals or after the finals?
I assume that it will be selected after the final, because that would mean all the games have been played.
but if i remember correctly i think in the last few WC it was chosen before the semis.
Seems absurd that they would chose it before the semifinals, but I doubt that they would have done that in the past. Perhaps you're memory isn't too flash?Quote:

P.S: Every match would be taken into account to elected the MOS, so i think the MOS would be selected after the finals.
It should be Styris. Unreal performances.
When they showed the current points last night McGrath has 12, Styris had 9.Quote:

Thats if my assumption of a 3-2-1 points system is correct.
He is the most deserving player, he has been outstanding all WC.Quote:

I thought in previous World Cups, they announced a list of nominations prior to the semis, and then announced the winner at the end of the Cup. Or something like that.
My pick right now would be Hayden or Styris, but the big games are still to come, so it could change dramatically.
Different if its based on a points system, though.
Styris for me (anyone but McGrath or Hayden or some Aussie).
Still the big game are left and if Styris or McGrath falter in those game then they won't get it, You never know somebody like Ponting,Murali or Hayden (on current form) or for that matter any other big match players could finish the tournament with a bang.
