Who will win T20 World Cup 2012?

India for sure! 

Australia? Really? They will be lucky to even make it to the 2nd round. It will be between Sri Lanka, West Indies and Pakistan. India, though are not that strong but the IPL experience imght help them. Pakistan have the edge in the spin department - they have the best spin attack by a country mile than any other country.

I am certainly NOT sure about ANYTHING Raj. And yes, country mile is an exaggeration but I do not see any current spin attack as good as Ajmal, Afridi, Rehman, Hafeez and the numbers are there for everyone to see I believe. 

Sri Lanka don't stand a chance, and I think fast bowlers will also have a good impact on the tournament.

6/8 by Mendis .. with 2 maidens in 4 overs. He owns the two best figures ever in T20I now! While the other Mendis made quick runs and took 3 wickets with his leggies. I do not necessarily agree with you Sam, Sri Lanka are playing at home and their spinners do really well in their own conditions - plus that batting like up... Dilshan is one of the best, Jayawardene is amazing in this format and Sangakkara is the best player in the world at the moment (equal best with a couple of others in my opinion, Amla, AB, Philander all come to mind). I know it's just a win against Zimbabwe, but they just beat SA in that T20 series not that long ago. Sri Lanka are semi-finals material for mine.

Only two systems work.
One where you have 2 big pools and the top 4 teams go into the semis (like what they did for the 2009 Champion's Trophy);
The second system is to have a super sixes stage after the pool stage, so that all the top teams face each other before the Semis. This system worked in the 99 and 2003 World Cup. In 99 we saw Australia grow in the tournament and eventually show why they deserved to win, while the 03 World Cup Australia were clear favourites. I felt with the last world cup, it made no sense that the top 8 teams go into a knock out quarter final, when in fact the top 8 teams in the rankings all made it into the quarters - what was the point of having pool games?

"Taking this in to consideration, team ‘England’ (35) and South Africa (41) both fall in to this bracket directly. So if you ask me, the tie should ideally be between these two teams," predicts Bhavikk.
