Got to Catergories it, Who wil score the innings for each team. What you said could be anyone. Paul collingwood might put in a great innings. Shaun Pollock could get a great 100. Afridi might go mental and hit 150 in 70 balls or something. Dhoni could get a patient 126 N-O and win the game.

I think i emphasised the point. Remember that canadian who hit a tone against South Africa i think at the last world cup? Well, it could happen.

To me, it is who puts in the most consistent performances...

Paul Collingwood got 2 centuries and 1 half century in 3 matches. Thanks to his consistence, England won all 3 of them.

For me, out of the top 8 teams, I would say:

England - Pieterson will hit a big innings at least once.
Pakistan - Has to be Afridi. Razzaq does the job as well, they are a good batting team.
India - Tendulkar - Typical choice to make, but you think, last world cup so he has to make a good innings and maybe when it counts the most.
Australia - Hussey looks unbeatable at the moment. Ponting was in good touch, but you have to say Hussey.
Sri Lanka - Jawerdeyne (spelling). Always gotta say him, mainly cos I don't really know anyone who is in his class for Sri Lanka. Sangkarra(spelling) maybe?
New Zealand - Nathan Astle. Fleming has had his turn, now for Astle.
West Indies - Brain Lara. Last world cup for him, in front of home crownd, seems made to me...
South Africa - What can I say? Smith, a captains innings...

Now lets see what really happens now that I have made a prediction...
