I think Spin Wizard was the closest out of all of us - anyone disagree? As his prize, he can set up the 2009 Predictions thread!!

Injuries aren't doing him any good either so yeah, quite dodgy indeed.

Sachin has had a very dodgy year, in fact quite terrible by his standards

Come on South Africa! You've got this in the bag!
South Africa should win, I think. They've got alot of experience on their team. I think England will underestimate South African pace attack. I suppose Englands already used up all their good luck against New Zealand. It'll be one of those disapionting series for England, That they have every so often.

hmmmm well it is going to be a tough series considering what both sides are on papers, i guess whoever is hosting the series would be with advantage.

Predict for the things that aren't predictable as yet like the SA vs ENG upcoming series etc.

There needs to be an injection of desire Chiefy and that's why
Harmison should be left with the drinks tray. I'm out of the loop
really and half the names that Tykey has thrown up are complete
strangers to me ! I've seen Onions and whilst raw , has some
mongrel about him and I think that's what's required right now.
Let's see how this series pans out
- if they lose (god forbid!) then I'll help with the blood-letting and
it won't just be players getting slashed. If they draw , score runs and
Sidebottom gets decent support in the attack , then the carnage
shouldn't be too great. If they win , then bring on the smelling salts
, because I won't be conscious!
Moores could well turn into the English equivalent of Buchanan - how scary is that ?

Broad seem to me like one who looks for wickets, like trying things. However, the way he falls away on the foot when delivering can be dealt with and make him a much better bowler. Most, if not all the top class fast bowlers keep a bit more upright on the front leg.

Broad dosen't look the goods to me, not seen onions, as for the rest they have been in and out over the last few years, none performed consistantly. Surley there must be someone like sidebottom floating around, someone that has been perfoming for a while? The future looks pretty bleak otherwise.

Don't say stuff like that. You know that the ECB are very impressionable to ideas of that sort.
Broad
Onions
Plunkett (Let's hope not)
Mahmood
Kabir Ali
Bresnan
Anderson (Gods Help us  )
Gough (Clobbers worst nightmare  )
Jones (If (once) he gets back to full pace and form)
Shahzad (Early days but he has the ability)
Harris (Too young just yet but a very good prospect from what I hear)
That's just those I came up with off the top of my head. I could probably think of more if I had more time.

As bad as England were in the last test they'll be much better on home turf lad. (they can't get any worse anyway!)

This prediction might even come true if England don't improve fast.

 Good one Sam. I just can't see NZ winning champions trophy. They might make semi-finals or finals but they just can't seem to cross the last hurdle.
