I think we can say that England have won?

Thats the team England should use more often, forget KP and Flintoff.

The same team that you were criticising and laughing at when Australia beat us 6-1? yeh.

We just beat the BEST team in the world, yes, we did it.

Following the group stage the top 2 teams from each group will progress to the semi finals where the winner of Group A will play the runner up of Group B (in the 1st semi-final) and the winner of Group B will play the runner up of Group A (in the 2nd semi-final).

I would prefer India to win, but I don't see that happening with many of our best players not playing due to injury.
South Africa ftw if India lose.

SA are out, you are wrong.

And if you forgot, no one thought India would win the inaugural T20 World Cup as none of the big players were playing, but we made record by smashing England to 6 6's (thanks Flintoff) and by winning it.
Pakistan did the same this year. No one thought they would win, but they did.

The problem with England is that they rely fully on Flintoff and KP, the rest aren't great. We do not rely on Gambhir or Sehwag alone, and that was demonstrated when we trashed Sri Lanka and won the Compaq Cup this month.

I am sure KP and Flintoff didn't cause you to lose 6-1. Otherwise you shouldn't even have bothered going to South Africa considering KP isnt playing and I don't think Flintoff is either.
Just pray South Africa go easy on you guys.

I think it will be SA, SL, India and Australia in the semis.

We fully rely on Flintoff? yet you have just posted saying that 'the team we just played is the team that we should play, 'forget Flintoff and Pietersen'', wow?

England haven't got a chance, Bresnan is a rubbish bowler! Need to play 2 spinners, colly, dimi and wright to stand a chance of winning even one match. Our medium bowlers are better at ODI's than our quickies!

Btw Saurav, Yuvraj struck Broad for 6 6's, not Fred :P

You were wrong too.

I wouldn't be surprised if Pakistan win today, they aren't playing the best of teams and we aren't playing with our best team. Anyone can win and its impossible to predict.

Well done to Johnson for saving Australia just now.

We just beat the best side in the world... we beat what people argue is the best team in the world on Friday. England have improved, and yes I can say this, cause we have just beaten the best two teams in the world; England are now playing like they have the belief that they can be one of the top 3 best teams in the world.

In the end, we were ALL wrong, thank you England for actually making us proud and winning against the best sides, and for most of all, proving us all wrong! :)

You did yes. You have new players in, different ones. You have obviously read my post in the wrong way... again :rolleyes:

Anyway, its impossible to predict who will win tomorrow. I think the toss will be important. The team batting first seems to win in this tournament, so whoever bats first will need to get a very very good score.
