I don't want to put up with Aussie arrogance and Ponting for another 4 years.

Come on Sri Lanka! Go and beat the Aussies.

I wished India to bring the glory back. But after seeing their bowling weakness, I doubt they qualify for the next round.
 
As I said Before: Bad Post and you are simply a.....You don't need to be so arrogant mate.
 
If Australia win, they must be deserving it. Seeing the duration of the World Cup, only the mentally toughest team(s) can survive the world cup and the better team wins it.

So if Australia win it, they deserve the world champions tag. i too wanted a change, but if aussies win, they will deserve it.
 
If Australia win, I will be a little surprised because they'll have to do it with one of the more inexperienced bowling line-ups of the tournament. Australia still haven't played any top-tier competition and only after their match on South Africa will I be able to make my judgment on their chances to make it a hat-trick. Their batsmen are certainly good enough to make up for their bowlers, though.
 
Australia ... Well they are still a better side no doubts about it. They got one the most expolosive batting lineup together with some outstanding fielding unit. But bowling is a doubt. Lots of boasting talks about Mcgrath but I didnt impressed with his bowling toh minnows. Brad Hogg is not comparble with any where near as Murali, Vitori or Kumble. So it is one of the weaker attacks they had from a long time. It's a set back under WI conditions. Anyway I dont think they will make it to the finals this time.
 
I guess it will be nice if a subcontinent wins the world cup then watching austraila win for the 3 times and then have to wait for 4 years agian
 
Come on Bangladesh! All they need is 9 on days for them and 9 off days for their opposition and we'll have a new World Champion.
 
Well I suppose Australia are quite boring with their dominance, but still we rule all! We will prove the doubters wrong once again, losing to New Zealand with a sub standard team and to England (cough fluke cough) means nothing. The World Cup means everything.
 
You'll be lucky to even host the tournament in 2011. Absolutely pathetic you got it in the first place, they should move it to Australia/NZ given recent events.
 
Well, its 50-50 for Lanka to win this WCup.. And Bangla.. hmm, i have to wait and see how they perform in Super8 :)

But backing up Kiwis majorly along with Windies & SA!
 
Hey Soma, glad to see you don't let your bitterness affect you.

How is it 50/50 for Sri Lanka to win the World Cup?

I believe that they got a right team chemistry.. Infact their fielding is top class. If they survive this Super8, definitely they are strong threatening contenders of this trophy!

Thats why i said 50-50! ;)

Well well, aren't you a little troll ? Care to elaborate ? What do 'recent events' have to do with the World cup being hosted in the subcontinent next time ?

Hey surendar, you go for India right? So why do you back all those other teams then??

Why is the subcontinent getting the next World Cup anyway? I mean they had it back in 1996.

Well India's pretty much out of it now. Heck, even I'm backing Sri Lanka and Bangladesh now.

I think it came down to a vote IIRC and the subcontinent won. Aussie/NZL will get it in 2015. To be honest, I really thought you guys down under should've gotten it, but I'm not complaining :D
