Cricket-mind- howzzat! My prediction of the Cricket World Cup’07

As the countdown to the biggest event in the cricket world ,the world cup’07 ends at the morrow – there will be billions of fans right round the world glued to the events unfolding in the Caribbean islands over the next month & a half. Well, predictions for this world cup is a risky job as most of the heavyweights are closely matched. Still I will stick my head out and predict the possible teams to make it to the semi-finals and of course the eventual winner.
My predictions after the super-eight stage with ranks are:

1) Sri lanka
2) India
3) South Africa
4) Australia
5) New Zealand
6) West Indies
7) Pakistan
8) England

So, the semi-final lineup could be
A) Sri lanka Vs Australia
B) India Vs South Africa

Finals- 28th April’07
Australia Vs India

And hold your breath! Finally India winning this time round, a sweet revenge after four long years.

Lets wait and watch how much of this will be true.. but this is how I see it going. Do spare me if it doesn't workout this way
