Ok, now that we know what kind of team will be playing for Pakistan in the world cup, and looking at their and other team’s performance over the last few months, I am making an attempt to predict the possible outcome of the tournament.
First, let’s list the real cricket teams in the tournament:
Australia
England
India
New Zealand
Pakistan
South Africa
Sri Lanka
West Indies
Zimbabwe
There are 9 of them. Except for Zimbabwe, really any of these teams have the potential to win the world cup. The second round, Super 8, would habe 8 teams, and I predict these 8 teams to reach the second round (unless Kenya pulls another stunt). That’s when the real world-cup will start.
Now let’s eliminate two more teams from the second round. I would pick England and West Indies as a wild guess. I would show no surprise if Pakistan gets eliminated as well, but I would keep them in for sympathetic reasons.
So we have six teams, four of which will play in the semi-finals:
Australia
India
New Zealand
Pakistan
South Africa
Sri Lanka
I would keep predicting stuff during the course of the tournament.
west indies will win.
I’d wager that New Zealand would reach the semi’s.
