If India was in Group A, we would've beat them.

Where's the "none of the above" option?

Also love how there's no England. Losing to them is inconceivable

Based on last night's effort against the Indian spinners, I think our games against Sri Lanka and Pakistan in Sri Lanka could be a real acid-test for us. I'm hoping we would raise the bar of our game once the worldcup games start and if we win against Pakistan and Sri Lanka in spin friendly conditions then I think we would prove pretty hard to beat for the rest of the tournament as well.

NewZealand.

Srilanka and Pakistan play Australia later than the Kiwis.

New Zealand are AWFUL on the subcontinent. If Australia don't beat the Kiwis, they may as well stop trying.

Australia's OD form is being very under-rated I feel. We still beat the Poms 6-1.

Newzealand may be awful in the SC,but i just have a feeling that they'll pull one over Australia.I agree that Australia are being written off quite early,but it's not without reason.We'll juat have to wait and see.Call me superstitious,but Australia have gone loo long without having a spectacular WC collpase.This IMO,is the tournament where they will.

The first team to beat them will be the last team to beat them in an ODI series.
The answer is C:
Sangakarra's soldiers / Mahela's mates / Murali's men / Kapudegara's comrades / Lasith's legionnares

oh and lol @ Sanz's claims
