Super six format applies, as last world cup. Top 3 teams from each pool advance to super six.

Top two super six teams from both pools play semi finals, with the winners advancing to the final

Canada only 1000-1 ?? Namibia 500-1 ?? Why dont the Bookmakers show some guts.

Best value is New Zealand especially if Cairns is fit.

What do you reckon, now m8? We'd be in with a bit of a chance wouldn't we?

You must have been happy after the Windies beat SA first up!

Kenya 500/1? I wonder what they are now?

Kenya have done pretty well. One advantage that they have is that they are natural athletes. Secondly they have a strong determination and appear to enjoy their cricket Image

One of our readers has expressed interest as to why this topic is not included in the World Cup topic.

BJ started this topic on January 1, a month prior to the commencement of the Cup matches, with some useful info about which pool each country was drawn in.

When the Aussie team left for the WC, on January 30, I started the World Cup topic, to provide coverage from the first week and so anyone wishing to read the whole topic could start from the first games.
