I went with West Indies to make it through the group, but only because they have more international experience than Ireland. WI have more potential to really tee off and beat one of the big three in the group, despite being dismal in most games. That could make up for any win Ireland has over WI, itself 50-50 at best.
 
India, South Africa, Pakistan. These three are almost certain to qualify. WI are an interesting one I can see Zimbabwe or Ireland knocking them off to be honest.

The person who voted for the UAE is kind of like when you had a substitute teacher and she asks you to put your names on a piece of paper and they write Mike Hunt or Ben Dover, cmon guys!
 
UAE is my second team this tournament, led by their 43 year old Captain and Vice Captains! Up the Arab Emirates!

I was hoping they'd pull this guy out to play some cricket as well!

Actually a pretty decent chance of a few upsets in this group

:eek: some pretty good stats for a 16 year old :p
Hopefully Zimbabwe can make a good match of tomorrow.
 
The boers are batting first against the Zimbabweans, best of luck to both sides and hope for a upset.

Seddon Park looks awful tiny. North Sydney Oval-esque. Can see SA posting 350+ here quite comfortably, given recent form and Zimbabwe's relatively innocuous attack (Captain Elton Chigumbura is the only player in the side that has ever taken 4+ wickets in an ODI, and he's only ever done it once).
 
Looking forward to watching today.

South Africa should get the job done fairly comfortably against Zimbabwe, but the Zimbabweans do have some quality there particularly in the middle order. Hopefully they put up a good fight.

India vs Pakistan should be an absolute cracker in a couple of hours. India are not as strong as they have been over the past few years, so the Pakistanis are every chance of opening their WC account with a win.
 
Keen to see how de Kock will perform this world cup, quality young batsman.
