I'm still on Sri Lanka to win

I'm guessing that Sri Lanka just got a fair few more fans about 5 mins ago

Yesterday when Pakistan won Imran Khan wanted an India-Pakistan Semi Final because he said India will be under pressure because of following three reasons;

Home Ground/Crowd
Playing Pakistan
Semi Final
Imran was the master of mind games and the was playing a few yesterday. Imran was probably trying to detract from the fact that Pakistan have never beaten India in the WC....

Haha, to your surprise no. I wanted Australia to go well, but in the poll which is on here I picked Sri Lanka to win it.

No one had beaten Australia in last 34 World Cup games until Pakistan did it!

So hopefully India will be next

No drops, two misfields - when Australia made more errors than India. Superb in the field. Raina and Kohli where magnificent.
I'd hope Raina and Kohli are good, they're the only reliable fielders India have got!

India were fairly clinical today, Nobody stood up for the Aussies apart from Ponting, Haddin to an extent and Lee (Lee always plays like a champion to be fair, by far my favourite Aussie!), whereas India had 4 or 5 men do the business in one area or another today. Ind-Pak semi, and (As much as I hate to say it) SL-SA semi, I reckon this could get good...

Pretty hard to have a go at David Husseys performance.

Raina and Kohli are more than reliable, both are World class. If they played for anyone else they would be acknowledged as World class fielders.

Raina is still susceptible to the short ball.

I'd prefer Kohli to Raina as a fielder, couldn't tell you why though. Considering the standards we have at the moment (not as many good fielders as there used to be) I'd say they were world class. But currently, that doesn't say a great amount.

Not get cop to many in India though, so he should be ok
