An interesting ad on world cup 2007

This is an ad by sony max- the channel which is going to air the world cup in India. The concept is very interesting. Your comments on the concept please

Well I think it's unfair that the Aussies will be fielding adults and that it will be the U10 sides for the rest of the nations.

It's clearly an unfair height advantage, unless the Aussie players were all midgets.

Oh yeah, and what about the Aussies getting to bat with a giant sign? And the kids have to use their arms, no fair.

Thumbs down

I could be wrong (well i hope i am wrong)

Are they trying to say that Australia are the current W/C cup holders at the moment and that the four finalists are going to be AUS, STH AFRICA, INDIA, and SRI LANKA...

Its interesting to see that WEST INDIES is there in the background quite visible but his or her hands are there first..
SRI LANKA second INDIA third and STH AFRICA fourth...

Hmmm Not fair i reckon...

I think you are analysing too much. The concept is that Australia is much bigger than the other teams. They have tried to be humorous. The reason why you see India and Lanka is that the channel is broadcast in both countries.

I thought it was just saying that Australia are unbeatable and are going to win it again. (",)

I think that the ad is trying to say just that, but IMO there is a slight error. The first 3 teams are sure to be in the semi-finals, but the 4th will not be SL but New Zealand. And, it will be a SA vs NZ final that will go down to the wire.
