Since cricket is a game of uncertainties, nothing can be predicgted for sure about the outcome of a tournament in advance. While Australia were considered as a hot favourite to win the world cup till recently, since their strength has been reduced due to injuries to key players, they are no more hot favourites. presently South Africa are the hot favourites.
However, they also cannot take things granted as the final outcome will purely depend upon as to which team perform to their potential consistently during the world cup.
As it stands now, all the top 8 teams stand a chance to win the world cup.

I feel nothing serious has happened to the Aussie cricket team, only thing is that they are resting key players for the World cup. Unlike in India where the crowd wants India to win every game, the Aussies are prepared to risk a game here and there to build a team and assess the performance of the fringe players. I can tell u they will come back strongly in the New Zealand series

I reckon the fact they'll lose their #1 status if they lose either of the remaining games in the Chappell-Hadlee series (btw, isn't this an insult to two great families, to shoehorn three unwanted ODIs in between the interminable CB Series and the World Cup?) will spur them to win and come back stronger in the World Cup. Having said that the other teams will know they are beatable - England and NZ have done everyone else a favour :)

I think that they went into cruise control in the second half of the series against NZ and England. It's not always easy to switch it back on again. I still think that they will come good once the World Cup begins.Although, my son thinks that India are superb.

shut up you whinging aussies complaining about injuries. you know nothing about injuries, england has been the most unlucky with injuries particularly to simon jones, now it happens to you start complaining and forget about you calling the english whinging poms when they talked about injuries. by the way symmonds isnt even australian he's english born in Birmingham, England to English parents but moved to Australia so you can be quiet about Pieterson as well.
Saffers to win the world cup, or England hopefully.

they'll and that they could. while it includes women's cricket that's ruled by ability of Aussie, English and New Zealand women. So no ask your self. that's going to be yet another one way site visitors. Btw the nice and snug button is no one cares for women's cricket. Frankly no longer even female followers lol..In Sri Lanka you will no longer even locate a hundred women who play cricket. Even my sister would have made in to SL nationwide group had she drawn to enjoying cricket (Even now!) while it includes adult men's cricket it has bigger opposition even in college point regarding greater desirable than a hundred pupils in one college!. women's cricket isn't something yet block and laugh. that is uninteresting as hell. that is for PWGNETW followers. (people who have been given no longer something Else to observe)! Yawn! no one cares or no one supplies a hoot! in case you wanna watch actual cricket watch adult men's cricket.
