2007 Cricket World Cup

Well friends its that time again, the showcase of one day cricket is about to begin. Here is a thread to dicuss all aspects of the series.
I'm obviously backing the reining world champs, Australia, but I don't think they will have it all their way this time around.
Here are the groups and the game dates.
ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 - Cricket Australia

First game, Australia V Scotland, hmm could be close

Of course you will lose and go out in the group stages and it will be England v Scotland in the final

I believe Canada is sending a team the only reason I know is that a local sports station is trying to teach us about the game

BBC SPORT | Cricket | Australia too strong for Scotland

No surprise with the result... Aussies won by 203 runs.

Yes you are full of yourselves but when you have won as much as you have you sort of have a right to be cocky like that...
