I dunno hey that indian team is going to be something else.

Is kumble going to play? because with him and the turbinator operating WOW that would be rather hard for other teams :p.
 
Yea i have to discount the aussies, i just don't think they have much talent at the moment, have not yet seen the teams they will field but Sa and India have to be the favorites for this tournament i reckon.

The amount of talent in both teams is just amazing i think. Cannot wait for this though, my life seems worse not turning the projector on when i get home and watching t20 :(.

Aussie squad: http://content.cricinfo.com/wt202009/content/squad/402963.html

Aus and SA were2-2 in the T20s in Australia and SA recently - and that was Aussie teams that didn't have Watson, Lee or Symonds.

I know that feeling. :)
 
SA and India for me. Aus while on paper have a good side with the exception of symonds and lee the others have had very little cricket . Had they had the likes of hayden,gilly,warne,ect who have been slugging it out in the IPL I would have feared them but I just can't see a side with so little preparation beating in form players. India and SA and to a lesser extent Sri lanka must fancy themselves.
 
Yea i would have recalled them, hayden was immense. Gilly well he either goes big or goes home so you either get off to an amazing start or your looking at 20 odd for 1 :p
 
with this format "favourites" mean nothing - even the Windies can beat anyone if things go their way.
All it takes is 2-3 overs of luck!
 
No silk i don't think so, when you have power houses like SA and India with quality through-out the team you have favourites, no doubt anything can happen but when you have the quality these 2 team have you have to be favourites.

No good having 2 quality players and hope they getting going, look at SA team dude OMG it is insane.

You really think SA has it to win the tournament? We all know they are serial chokers in big games :sick:. And never under-estimate the Australians, it just might come back to haunt you :p
 
No we are chokers no doubt but i think we have so much talent we can easily win this, never right off the aussies for sure but there is no doubt the aussies are struggling in terms of quality.

They have very few good bowlers, batsmen do not give me any confidence but we will see shortly :)
 
Anyone know where i can see the sabc sports coverage ? (i hope they cover some of it)
