I'll be backin TT here. Don't really like the Deccans, barring maybe Venu, VVS and Suman, especially after backstabbing Laxman like they did.

Bravo(s), Ganga, Pollard, and Bharath etc make a strong outfit. Will be interesting indeed.

No way Trescothick is playing, he will probably poop his pants and ball up in a corner of the dressing room crying before he goes on onto the pitch

 

[Sartaj]

DC doesn't look too strong compared to the other two teams much to my disappointment.

 

[Dare]

T&T all the way!!

Ok then we'll send you out to do a better job

Great argument,

 

[sohum]

Will be interesting to see if Rohit Sharma can repeat his form in the only form of the game where he's any good.

 

[pcfan123]

Any word if Symonds is actually playing? There has not been any decent media coverage on this as far as I can tell.

 

[Sartaj]

He obviously is playing unless he's injured or something

bcvstheworld added 0 Minutes and 51 Seconds later...

I don't know why people think that Ryan Harris is an all rounder

 

[King Pietersen]

Kieswetter and Trescothick to win Somerset the tournament tbh. Alfonso Thomas will probably be one of the best death bowlers in the competition as well. I expect Somerset to go well if those 3 fire.

Somerset will get cained. C A I N E D

I think Somerset are a good bet, quite literally; the odds pay out nicely. In fact, the only team with longer odds is T & T. I'm not sure about their bowling, but I'm not overly sure about the bowling of anyone in this group. Somerset have real class in the batting. There could be a big upset.

Its just GO CHARGERS GO :banana2

 

[Prithvi]

I am already up to match between Deccan Chargers and Somerset Sabers.
So, DC will win for sure in that game...(Even came closer to victory when I went to stadium previously. But Symonds was spoil Sport (17 runs off 5 balls to Warne..)
So, This time... DC will Win..!!
Go Chargers..!!
