A former vocal poster used to claim there was only JAMODI tournament that counted - the World Cup.

This is the mini World Cup. Is it rikki-worthy?

Just over 2 weeks to finish. THAT'S how to run a tournament that no one GAF about.

By that reasoning the IPL should run for about 20 minutes,

This is better than the WC - there're no minnows to flay mercilessly. But, it can't be classed as a real tournament because SA have won it. That cheaps it right up.

They're pretty shite ATM - who are the favourites? England have got some good blockers. Pakistan have been taken to school by Ireland. Maybe the CheatCCI XI.

Was thinking India at 11/2 might be a good bet, but then remembered it's in England.

you forgot the new ICC rule which allows Dhoni the right to instruct all curators in and out of Banindia on how they are to prepare the pitches the bannies are to play on.

Aust def WI easily in their warmup. Warner & Hughes both got blobs. It will no doubt grate with some people that the hero was Watto with 135 off 98 balls.

Predictable start for the 2 no-talents.

The most notable comparison of performance was the two leftie quicks. Koo too 4-29 off his 10 while the heinous Midge went for 0-66.

So small grounds and flat decks - maybe that 11/2 for India might not be a bad offer.

This particular SODIT is sodding off for good after this - so a chance to hold it permanently for whoever wins.
