They've already lost it, and lost it badly indeed.

Australia currently lead by 626 runs, if they bat on for a further hour England could be set 700+ to win! As the Test record for a fourth innings is 418-7 (WI v Australia, 2002-03) and the first class record 513-9 (Central Province v Southern Province in Sri Lanka, 2003-04), I think we can safely say that it's impossible for England to win. \nAn equivalent in other sports? Mohammed Ali in his prime losing to Julian Clary? In other words I don't believe you could seriously find an equivalent in another sport.

Well there's obviously some bias here.\n\nSo far 20 out of 25 people have picked India, with 3 maybes and 2 nos.\n\nSo does this mean we should all go down and put our hard earned money on them.  I don't see how you can be so confident.\n\nYou gotta win the World Cup, it's not just given to you.\n\nYou need to have the players to do it.  Having some good players will win you some games but not the whole tournament.\n\nWhat makes all of you think you can get past Australia, Sth Africa or even England.  \n\nHow about batting lets see the latest rankings.\n1   Adam Gilchrist  AUS   \n2   Mahendra Dhoni  IND   \n3   Ricky Ponting  AUS   \n4   Andrew Symonds  AUS   \n5   Mike Hussey  AUS  \n\nOuch - 4 out of the top 5 - in the World.\n\nBowling\n\n1  Shaun Pollock  SA  858  \n2  Irfan Pathan  IND  765  \n3  Shane Bond  NZ  762  \n4  Glenn McGrath  AUS  756  \n5  Daniel Vettori  NZ  750  \n6  Brett Lee  AUS  732  \n7  Nathan Bracken  AUS  723  \n8  Muttiah Muralitharan  SL  701  \n9  Chaminda Vaas  SL  693  \n10  Harbhajan Singh  IND  690  \n\nNot many Indians here either.\n\nIndia winning the world cup is Wishful thinking.

IF INDIA CAN MANAGE A DRAWN TEST SERIES AND CLOSE FOUGHT DEFEAT WOULD BE RATED AS SUCCESS.\n\nBUT..\n\nINDIA WOULD LOOSE...THE TOUR.

INDIAN WIN WAS A MIRACLE BECAUSE THEY LOST 5 WICKETS ON 125 ONLY, YUVRAJ & KAIF PLAYED VERY WELL AND INDIA WON THE MATCH.\n\nAFRICA PLAYED VERY WELL FROM STARTING AND ALL THE INNING TIME, THEY LOOKS LIKE WINNING TEAM.\n\nBUT I WANT TO SAY THAT AFRICA PLAYED VERY WELL AND THEY HAVE DONE VERY HARDLY.

i think that they are better matched than south africa would have been.it's going to be a very interesting game to watch!i'll lay my odds with the aussies though cricket is unpredictable!

Yes it will.\n\nBut need to do more for win by INDIA.\n\nWhat?\n\n\nRESPONSIBILITY HAS TO GO ALONG WITH ACCOUTABILITY.\n\nHOW?\n\nDRAVID be removed from CAPTAINCY and ODI-Why?\n\nThe worst captain- \ncould not control SA from 6 wicket down for 76; finally SA made 275. \nAny 18yrs child can do better job.\n\nHe made 63 in 103 balls and it is equvalent of 184 in 50 overs. This means he played for his retaintion in the team but not for win of INDIA. \nHE SCORED +50 for 63 but SCORED (NEGETIVE) -100 for playing TEST Match in ODI. \n\nThe net score of dravid is (negative)-50. This means he can play TEST but he shall be removed from ODI side of INDIA.\n\nShri DHONI be made CAPTAIN- Why?\n\n\nHe scored 55 in 48 balls, this is equivalent to 344 runs in 50 overs. Therefore he played for win of INDIA. HE GOT 50 FOR SCORING 55, and 100 FOR PLAYING FOR WIN OF INDIA and not mere for his retaintion in the team.\n\nTHEREFORE DHONI WITH 150 MARKS OUT OF 100 WILL THE CAPTAIN IN THE NEXT ODI\n\nShri DRAVID WITH (-)50 SCORE SHALL BE DROPPED FROM ODI AND RESERVED FOR TEST ONLY.\n\n\nThis is one example.\n\nWhat others?\n\npay proportion to performance\n\nif team win alright, if not remove 2 bat'mn, 2 blrs, 1 all rounder, keeper (if did badly).\n\nif could not win series;\nremove captain, coach, selectors, BCCI, \nMake a fresh selection of the team.\n\nIT WILL CERTAINLY WORK.

Yes,they do.\nI accept Indians are genetically weaker than the aussies.So what?\nWe have beaten them earlier.On our day,we could beat anyone.\nCorrect planning and adequate practice though would not guarantee a win,still it can surely improve our chances.\nAnd see, if Indians can,others can also beat them\nRemember Iqbal?"Dimag ka khel dil se sochna chahiye"

When you say "CAN", anything can happen in cricket. \n\nPakistan won the world cup when they looked almost out and thanks the rains, they got a chance.\n\nKenya made it to the semis last time.\n\nBangladeshis beat the No.1 Australians in England and almost won a test aginst them at home.\n\nOne dropped catch cost the South Africans the World Cup and Australians took it home.\n\nKapils 175 turned the tables to snatch an improbable victory from the Zimbabwians.\n\n.... the team  with a greater share of luck on the D-day would make it. However, with the ammunition of Dhoni(#1 batsman as of today), Dravid (the mighty Wall), Sehwag, Yuvraj, Pathan and probablity of the Greatest Sachin being there, there is a very high chance of India making it again this time.

NO IT IS NOT PERFECT TEAM TO BEAT SOUTH AFRICA ON THEIR OWN GROUND.  YUVRAJ SINGH IS THE BEST BATSMAN OF INDIAN TEAM IN THE MIDDLE ORDER MAKES IT MORE WEAK BECAUSE OF HIS INJURY.  BUT IN CRICKET WE SHOULD NOT LEAVE HOPE ANY BODY CAN SHINE AT ANY TIME AND I ALSO WISH BEST TO MY INDIAN TEAM.

2014 be almost definitely be held in Brazil. As for South Africa, I was a little surprised. Do they even have a team that competes in the WC. Not being asked sarcastically, I truly don't know if they do. There are so many political decisions made. Who knows if Sth Africa will even grant entry into their country for spectators of other African nations. I will reserve judgement on the decision to hold it there. As for who will win, Brazil and the other South American countries will have an outstanding amount of support and will be hard to beat. In 2010, it's wide open I think.

The 3 options you have given wouldn't mean much. The team with a greater share of luck will win the cup.\n\nPakistan won it by pure luck thanks to the rain god. Same goes for the loss of South Africans.\n\nWith the ammunition of Dhoni(#2 batsman as of today will be #1 shortly), Dravid (the mighty Wall), Sehwag, Yuvraj, Pathan and probablity of the Greatest Sachin being there, there is a very high chance of India making it again this time.

India cannot win the world cup so easily...they have to do something special for it...we saw India chased a good total like 280 against pakistan In pakistan...but in W.I they were not able to compile even 199 runs with their strong batting line up...we can see how India is perfoming overseas...so it would be difficult to say that India can win world cup atleast in West Indies...

HEART LIKES TO INDIA WIN.\nBRAIN (I THINK I HAVE LITTLE) INDICATES S.A. MIGHT BE THE WINNER.
