If we look at recent results South Africa looks good to win, but if we look at previous world cups they have lost it at some time or other.
Hopefully this time round they can keep it together.

As I'm an American, I feel I must ask the timeless American question:
What the hell is a world cup?
What the hell is a world cup?
I think Srilanka has a great chance of winning this time...
they have a very balanced team, good bowling attack.
and moreover the pitches here in WI are very much same like they have at home.
But obviously the kind of form australia is in, they are the clear fav.
I think that they are bound to have a bad day...hope its not in the semis or the finals.

I think Australia have to be favourite. When-ever they play I hope they bat first so that we can have a decent game. They seem able to consistently post 300+ scores, which is just amazing.
