This is my prediction, but i hope somehow SA can burgal themselves into the final but its highly unlikely. Is the betting out on the semis yet?

India and West Indies do have the advantage of playing all their group matches in Dhaka whereas SA and SL played in Chittagong. Both semi's and final will be played at Dhaka.

India 6/10 SA 13/10 ( Tie No Bet )
Sri Lanka 7/10 W.I 11/10 ( Tie No Bet )

Fortunately we won't go home as chockers as India are expected to beat us and we did well to just get to the semi's. Should be a couple of exciting matches. (tu)

Why do the Proteas fans always refer to the team as chokers? You only chock when you have a modest total to chase and you mess it up by becoming nervous or you give the match away by dropping catches. How can you call a team chokers when they are chasing 300 and fall short by 10 runs. Its a pathetic stigma attached to them and all because they threw away the 1999 semi against the Aussies.

Agree, in previous years we haven't been the best sides going into these tournaments.

If we can beat India.......i think we will win the tourney.

Looking forward to Sri Lanka and West Indies later on this afternoon

Are SA not playing in the semi now ?
