  7. Last Day to put down your selections. Enter by midnight if interested. We have 4 people IN the pool till now.

  8. as of today Jaideep leads with 9 points. all remaining 3 have 8 points each.

  9. All 4 had Ind in Semis. So Jaideep still leads the pack by 1 point. Jaideep: 11 points. All rest: 10 points.

  10. Maybe it’s time for another article to put in the prefereneces i.e who will win the Semi’s and go to finals 🙂

  11. And Prashant falls behind in the race since South Africa is out.

  12. Australia get a double whammy – losing to both “local” nations and had rain not washed out their game with SL, I am sure they would have lost to them as well.

  13. I will fall behind the rest, if Sri Lanka wins tomorrow.
    Then if Sri Lanka makes it to the Finals, I will not catch up even if India is the final winner. Pahel would win. Nitul wins, if Sri Lanka is the final winner.

    Go England 🙂

  14. Looking at the trend Jaideep, I think England will win today :).

  15. Seems like Sri Lanka has other plans :(. Have to rely on the total runs and wickets in the Finals.

  16. And now Jaideep goes to the bottom of the pool 🙁

  17. Prashant – maybe we should get a side bet going 🙂

  18. Standings before the Finals:

    Ajay, Nitul : 18 points (8+4+6)
    Prashant : 15 points (8+4+3)
    Jaideep: 14 points (7+4+3)

  19. Finals Standings:

    Congrats to Nitul for being the winner of the betting pool. Congrats to Jaideep for being runner up.
