Looks like my luck has run out. Got 0 points from yesterday's game and for today also I will get the same number of points. Never expected Pakistan to perform so well after the thrashing they received during the warm-up matches. Just hoping that Round 2 will be better for me... there are a few tough picks, but I guess I can manage.

So, no one is going to have a point today, lol. No one has choosen Pakistan. Pakistan played pretty well today, specially Hafeez and the Captain.
I already have picked some round and locked them since it's Eid time and I'm in vacation. Now, it seems I have to change my pick which isn't possible anymore

Well, England 3 wickets down. everything is possible in cricket. could be Pakistan's lucky day.
And Royse I noticed that @Ronnie sending some reward to top winners, so I want to contribute as well, and I am thinking of sending a little amount of 0.001 BTC to winner-top points getter for round 2.
Conditions apply ( feel free to give suggestions )
1. Winner must actively participate in the discussion- no spam of course ( price is low so only 1 winner)
2. Only Round 2 points will count ( That means everyone will start from 0)
PS: Good Analysis is welcome.

Really good batting by Pakistan today. Enough good achieve for wining the match. England already lost their two wickets to reach 60 runs in 10 overs. So it will be difficult to chase the 348 more runs. More winning chance for Pakistan IMO.

I disagree. Bangladesh consistently cause such upsets in every World cup basically. Did you observe how India thrashed them in the warm up match? They still have a long way to go, but have improved by miles over time.

Good to have Haunebu back. I think you were missing last few days :-P
Anyway, yes I did see the helpless Bangladesh against India but in past they had very close matches with India and I think they won some as well. So I would not judge based on one match (the match against India). Bangladesh really has good potential.
It is true that Bangladesh have improved a lot as I stated and have great potential, but they are not a consistent team when it comes to winning. This might change in the future though due to continuous improvement on their part.

Pakistan is heading toward a big total now. Still, almost 15 overs left and if they can speed up their run rate, then 320-350 looks very much achievable in this pitch. Unless another collapse in the corner is waiting for them. Hope that's not the case this time.
Finally 300+ chase for Cricket lovers
Pakistan may have a luck today LOLFinally 300+ chase for Cricket lovers
Chasing 348 will not be easier however it's possible for the team like England. My pick was comfortable win for England but seems like even if they win then this might be a close match.
Not in gambling mood coz I lost some good amount of money earlier :-(

You and Haunebu seems gone quite :-PGood to see your post. Did you see some close picks from vishnu? He caught my attention. And about the match yesterday, man Bangladesh proved all of us wrong (LOL) except of course pffrt and webtricks.

I'll see what the standings are for round 1 after the game today and send out some prizes for the top performers 
I am excited to see what you bring on the table.Quote
On a side note I got New Zealand in the office pool so I was happy to see them demolish Sri Lanka - I get to avoid doing a penalty shot tonight 
Seems like this is something from your office desk? Whatever it is, I wish you good luck :-)

Wow that Bangladesh win over the weekend was insane! 
Congrats to pffrt and webtricks on the pick!

Thank you. Yes I'm from Bangladesh. Otherwise, I barely would say we, right? It was really an exciting match. At some point, it was risky and I thought will lose. Thanks to Saifudding for taking the important wicket.
It was a really huge win for Bangladesh and right from the beginning nothing was going on South Africa's way as they were dropped catches and many miss fielding and with the spin attack Bangladesh has it will be a hard task for a team like South Africa who succumb to pressure and spin bowling, this is the worst performance in terms of fielding by a South African team and well played Bangladesh and it is a better win than their world cup win over South Africa in 2007 as they dominated in every aspect of the game.I disagree. Bangladesh consistently cause such upsets in every World cup basically. Did you observe how India thrashed them in the warm up match? They still have a long way to go, but have improved by miles over time.
India plays spin really well throughout history and world class spinners like Warne or Murali never had an upper hand when they played against India most of the time and Bangladesh has 3 spinners in their line up and you cannot compare that with their performance against India.

We have Eng vs Pak today guys. Thrashing or comfortable win?
I am expecting England to win comfortably in this case thanks to their recent wins. Pakistan might try to fight back which is why thrashing does not seem likely in my opinion. The likelihood of Pakistan winning is less than BAN at this stage.My point was that when Bangladesh wins, it's not upset anymore. Obviously it's too early to tell anything about any team. I still think (not much though) SA has the strength to reach to the Semi even though they lost their first two matches.

The way Bangla tigers played yesterday, if they kept playing like this then I am not surprised if they beat top teams as well and make into Semis easily. But its too early to say, tournament just started and it's a long way to go from here. Even losing team can come back from here.

Looking at the last match and the performance in the Tri-Nation Series at Dubline, also some of the performance before they came to UK, I do not think they are anymore a team who cause upset. They are a very consistence team. Most of their players has huge experience compared to other team members in this world cup. So, I am waiting to see more wins for Bangladesh. May be Pakistan, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, New Zealand, WI are the team who will be targeted by Bangladesh.
My GOD! If they win these matches then they will easily go to the next round :-P

Bangladesh is known to upset the game by beating some of the best teams and exactly they did the same thing ystd by beating the SA. Bangladesh kept on picking up the wickets at regular intervals and this made the chase difficult for SA and to win the match.

Great, Bangladesh did it lol. South Africa already struggling for their first Win in this tournament, their next match is with India. Finger crossed for India and wishing that they ( Proteas) will not get their rhythm and jojo back on their side.

This was an unpredictable win for Bangladesh. Only two out of sixteen pool members got it right. Have a look We have Eng vs Pak today guys. Thrashing or comfortable win?
Only 2% were able to pick the outcome LOL
By the way, for todays match my initial pick is England - comfortable but if England bat first then I may change it to easy win because I believe in that case England has very much possibility to win this match by 50 - 99 runs margin.
So, after seeing the toss result I may change my decision.
