T-20 CWC Prediction Pool 2022

[Haunebu]

New Zealand survived all thanks to Phillips and their bowlers in this match. Sri Lanka could have comfortably won this one if they got him our early, but that didn't happen sadly for them.

Boult, Southee, Santner and Sodhi decimated their batting line-up systemically. This is the same Lankan team that won the Asian Cup recently people. New Zealand are hungry.

Kiwis are demolishing every opponent. Chances are they are going to top the table in their group.

I as an Indian fan don't want to see them against us in the semis as they are kind of kryptonite to the Indian team.

Rohit&co should try to top their own group so that they can have a better chance to clear the semis and then Rab Rakha in the finals lol

Guys came across this and it made me shocked, Pakistan haven't won a T20 match played in Australia. Tomorrow it is to play against Netherlands and this is going to be a history. If I've seen this detail earlier I would've picked Netherlands to win the match. Already I've chosen and locked Pakistan to win the match.

+1
That's an unknown and interesting fact.

Ironically New Zealand also had zero wins in Australia (across all formats, guess 11 years) and look at them, cruising their way to Semis like a champion but again they always put up a nice show when it's
ICC tournament.

Don't worry about your picks. You are already leading in the Superbru pool with the highest accurate predictions. You have chosen comfortable win for Pakistan. I believe Pakistan will get their first victory tomorrow in Australia. The performance of Netherlands players isn't satisfactory. Pakistan has lost both matches narrowly. Anyway, you have chosen Narrow win for Zimbabwe. Everyone else has chosen Bangladesh there. Have you chosen Zimbabwe for their thrilling performance against Pakistan? Or you have chosen them as Bangladesh is weak in T20 format?

they are the most entertaining team to follow and they always top the drama chart.

Talking about drama. Thank god that New Zealand won as expected.

[Vaskiy]

This time my pick failed, but the result came close to the pick. Zimbabwe won't get a better chance to make a win. The last ball drama made the match even more interesting. Zimbabwe players could've maintained little patience and Ryan Burl not getting opportunity too, a reason for the loss. Mosaddek Hossain did the best and he's lucky to win the match for Bangladesh.

To be fair to Lankans they hardly do any drama unless they are up against Bongbros.

You are still ahead tho.

We're robbed of epic meltdown tbh  . Bongbros were just 1 shot away from becoming meme content for a day or two, all thanks to Nurul Hasan lol.

Every subcontinent team producing nailbiters in this WC due to pressure and silly mistakes.

[Haunebu]

I wish there was some kind of button to automatically block these 1xbit shills in this forum. They keep posting in this thread again and again proving how dumb they truly are.

Coming to the matches, Pakistan won easily against Netherlands as expected, but they still need a miracle to make it to the semi-finals. Also, Bangladesh won by a hair against Zimbabwe. Crazy finish.

Excited for the upcoming India vs South Africa match.

Lol, don't bother about it.

Yeah, as usual lots of "If" and "Buts" for Pakistan. They are virtually out if tonight India fails to defend this mediocre total against Proteas.

So far Indian bowlers are bowling well, so there might be a slight chance for India, I hope they win as this will help the Indian cause for semis.

[Vaskiy]

In the Match, India vs South Africa everyone selected India to win the match. Mahdirakib is the only person chosen South Africa to win the match. Good prediction that have moved him to the top. It was India to win the match, major mistakes on drops and run out miss gave the momentum to South Africa. Somehow India took the match till the last over, and finally it was a 5 wickets win for South Africa.

[Haunebu]

Looks like Ireland are out at this point. They played well despite losing so many early wickets primarily thanks to Tucker who was their lone warrior.

If someone else properly supported him in the middle, the situation would have gotten a bit more complicated for Australia. It looks like New Zealand, South Africa, India and England or Australia will qualify for the semis.

England have a 1 tough match against Kiwis. 1 against SL and they won't be a pushover either. They have to win both matches.
Australians are up against Afghanistan, Afghans are good but Australia would look for complete domination as they want to improve their run rate.
India should qualify on paper but who knows if some upsets are around the corner?
NZ and SA seem safe with a healthy run rate and 2 matches left.

Eng and Aus qualification would depend on run rate if they manage to win their respective match.

[AB de Royse777]

In fact, that's why Aussies were aggressive today. However, against a B grade team (not sure if that make sense) team, Aussies will be always aggressive. Having that in mind I basically changed my pick from easy to trashing. It worked and got two points LOL

Haunebu, There is no doubt that it seems quite predictable at the moment. There have already been some very strange things happening at this world cup that many of us haven't seen before.

So, I am not going to be amazed if there are some more surprises that will remain until the end of the event. I wonder what would happen if a few more matches get washed out because of rain and/or because of the DLS method. This would result in teams winning that shouldn't have won? But otherwise, I think everything is quite easy to predict. In addition, Ireland is definitely out of the race. Although, they have played well but that is not going to cut it at the world cup.

[Haunebu]

England winning their match against New Zealand makes things a lot more interesting in their group. I am pretty confident that NZ will still qualify without any issues, but the second spot could go to England/Australia.

In the other group, South Africa and India look set to book the remaining spots unless a crazy upset happens which is doubtful in my opinion.

What if New Zealand, Australia, and Australia lose their next match? That would be something, highly unlikely (maybe a bit of chance in Eng vs SL) but still, it would be fun lol.

Similarly what if Bongbros produce some fine performance and upset India? In that case, I would love to see depressing KL Rahul scoring run a ball 50. Meltdown would be epic from Rohit and Dravid, I'm down for post match interview if it happens.

The match between India and South Africa was dramatic. Indian players dropped some easy catches and missed some easy opportunities to make run out. I'm down to the 3rd rank now for making two bad predictions today. I thought that Afghanistan and New Zealand will win against their respective opponents. Unfortunately both of them lost the matches. I think that India will easily win against Bangladesh tomorrow.

In today's match everyone have chosen Zimbabwe to win the match. Little Mouse alone chosen Netherlands to win the match. The target of 117  is easy to reach. In its previous match Zimbabwe bowled well against Pakistan and won the match. In today's match how things gonna work is simply unpredictable. Lets wait for the outcome.

I even had got a nice odd for Netherland to win. @2.82 at the very beginning of the match, I think it was quite good and placed my bets. So far, it is an easy win for Dutch unless they messed with losing wickets.
3rd wicket gone.
