Only India's warm-up matches will be tele-casted and they'll be up on Star Cricket.

They'll only show Warm ups including India . Wish they'd show other Warm up's too..:(

Tell that to the Ministry of Sports & Ministry of External Affairs. Apparently camera equipment was barred from entering into India and thus the warm-ups were in danger of not being shown. Seems like ESS has had to pay some bank guarantees to them.

How many think India will face Pakistan in the quarterfinal at the Sher-E-Bangla stadium in Mirpur? The 3rd quarterfinal is between A3 and B2 and in Group A, Australia and Sri Lanka will take the top two slots (most most likely) and it will be Pakistan and New Zealand for the next two. I predict Pakistan to be A3. In Group B, South Africa will most likely be group toppers (they will top everything until the last two games:p). So India could be B2. If it happens, it will be a re-run of that famous 1996 quarterfinal between the two countries (but only in a different country). Hope it happens! One encounter between India and Pakistan has to happen.:yes

The host countries get the right to choose their QF location. In such a case, India will have a say as to where they'll play their knockouts.

So will Srl and Ban,should they get through.


The same rule applies for the SF stage too.

But India v Pakistan as a QF may not be possible this time round,given that we may end up as topping the group, whereas Pak is likely to get the spots 3 and 4, on current form. I am expecting NZ in the QFs.

I'm also not expecting India vs Pak QF because it's looking like India will be at the top in their group.
