How many top tier teams have actually beaten test sides? It seems minnows are getting walloped. Nz have convincly beaten two England and Oz. Nz yet to be tested. I guess the pretenders and conitenders well stand up in finals.

3ku1, i'd say Aus tested NZ pretty solidly! NZ came out on top, even if only by a ball hair. I think it is pretty clear who the contenders are for this world cup. I reckon the favourites are in the following order;
1. New Zealand2. Australia3. India4. South Africa5. Sri Lanka
SA should be higher on the list according to the team sheat, but they lack BMT.

Luke, NZ has a great young team with just enough old hands to go all the way, BUT it would be a major upset if you lot pull it off. Oz have a good team that's well prepared and they're the team to beat. SA and India are also in with a chance and SL areisoking better as the comp goes on.
