WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

I started the thread for the first match of this World Cup (Pak vs WI) . Thought I should do the honours for the last one too.

So who would it be :

SRI LANKA
A team that rode its way to the Final on the back of an established CHUCKER and a marginally legal SLING THROWER with a weird blonde hairdo.

OR

AUSTRALIA
A team that has simply crushed and blown away all teams that came on its way to the finals.

My money and my hope is on AUSTRALIA.
Deserving Winners as Always !!

Semi Final tau khatam honay detay…:snooty:

Go Sri Lanka…
Win or Loose, you are the winners for me! The way you made it through this never ending CWC, you have won my heart.

WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

Barbados. start time 1430 GMT (correct me if I am wrong)

This is my first thread in this worldcup and I hope to break the jinx of useless matches and hence threads :p

God please let it be an interesting match after all these lame super eights and semifinal encounters :(

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

If you did not notice...I have already opened a thread for this...and at least 20 minutes before you did....so technically mine is the official one.

Re: WORLD CUP FINAL : April 28 - Australia v Sri Lanka

Inshallah Australia will win

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

Some1: I merged both threads. So dont worry, yours is first.

Chalo next time sahi :teary:

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

I'll root for Srilanka.

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

just imagine: 2011

Pakistan vs India World cup final and Pakistan wins

I wonder how many cities will get burned down in India if that happens :)

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

That's a huge ask given how miserably the two teams have fared in this WC

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

I am rooting for Uncle Bucknor :halo: this will be his fifth act @ WC finale.

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

Wow this is Australia's 4th successive WC Final and their 6th overall in 9 attempts since 1975, the best record of any cricketing nation. They have won it a record three times already and are well on track to make it 4 wins

Lost in 1975 (WI)
Won in 1987 (England)
Lost in 1996 (SLA)
Won in 1999 (Pak)
Won in 2003 (India)

I am rooting for Sri Lanka though, Go Sri Lanka...

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

Australia is the Brazil of Cricket

The only question is Sri Lanka the France of Cricket

Re: WORLD CUP FINAL : April 28 - Australia v Sri Lanka

I smell jealousy here. You guys just don't like Sri Lankans, do you ? :)

seriously though Australia would be deserving champions if they do go on to win the final

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

I feel sorry for Simon Taufel. Even though he is the #1 ranked umpire in the world, the way Aussies play, he has no chance of being an umpire at a World Cup Final. Aleem Dar and Bucknor will always have an advantage over him (suckyyyyyyyyyyy teams!!!) :D

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

Bucknor has already been nominated for the final and I think Dar would be the other umpire

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

Brazil had a horrible world cup...

I think Australia dominate other teams in cricket like no other sport

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

Bring on the Tigers. :p

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

I don't see the Lankans beating the Australians.

Re: WC2007 Final: SL v AUS

I think a better analogy is that Australia are like Roger Federer of cricket. They can lose, but its highly unlikely.
