Wednesday: Australia v Scotland, Kenya v Canada

Thursday: Sri Lanka v Bermuda, Zimbabwe v Ireland

Friday: South Africa v Holland, England v New Zealand

Saturday: India v Bangladesh, Pakistan v Ireland

Sunday: Australia v Holland, England v Canada

Full group games if you wish to predict them all in one go:

 

Week 2:

 

Monday: India v Bermuda, West Indies v Zimbabwe

Tuesday: South Africa v Scotland, New Zealand v Kenya

Wednesday: Sri Lanka v Bangladesh, Zimbabwe v Pakistan

Thursday: Scotland v Holland, New Zealand v Canada

JP , the flaw in the system is obvious (and spotted easily by Clobs!). If you persist with asking for only 8 predictions from a possible 11 per week then anyone with half a brain will not predict the outcome of the games when the big guns are matched up.
     Why not insist on predictions for all the matches in the 1st phase , that strikes me as the only way to get through to the super 8 stages without most of the lads on 100% !

   You can revert to the old system in the super 8's if you so wish. Up to you though , I'll post mine when I see your response. (If it remains unchanged I'll just copy and paste Clobs's!)
Mental disintegration works for me !!

I'm going to have to stick with what I went with - I mistakenly thought eight would mean you wouldn't be able to pick just the mismatches. At least the second week is slightly harder.
