Topic: BFM's Twenty20 Predictions ThreadPosted: 11 September 2007 at 4:26pm |
|
Ok, we all know how much BFM like's a prediction before a match (see the recent England v India series thread if you don't) so I thought we could run a little predictions league for the Twenty20 WC, and see just how good BFM's predictions really are.
Rules as follows: Before a match post up your predictions for: Winning Team Batsman to score a 50 Bowler to take a 4 for For correct winning team you get 2 points, and the other predictions are worth a point each. Simple enough then. So first up: SA v Windies My predictions: SA to win GC Smith (RSA) to score 50 D Sammy (WIN) to take 4 ![]() Edited by Homer S - 11 September 2007 at 9:05pm |

South Africa will have to get through Bangladesh first! They're looking ominous.
What about a Bangladesh / Zimbabwe final? |

That's also a possibility, though I suspect repeat performances are unlikely to happen given that there's too much class in the top sides. Upsets are likely and have happened, but winning the tournament?

I picked NZ a few months ago, but as has been shown, any side can do it on the day, 20 overs is not a long time to perform, wich is why the lesser fancied sides are going well.
