Now that the luck of the Irish have got them into the Super 8's do you think they will cause any more upsets? Who is now your favourite to win the World Cup?

No I don't think that Ireland can cause any upsets now.But for the the bookies and match fixers there any thing is possible in cricket or any other sport. Ireland has not done anything but it is Pakistan who has sent tham to the super 8. I think it is the worst world cup in terms of entertainment and fair play, these type of upsets one cannot imagine , Ireland is just a newbie , how can a team like Pakistan lose to them. As far as winning the world cup is concerned I think New Zealand also has a good chance besides Australia and South Africa.

Cricket is a game of ups and downs. I agree that Pakistan were overconfident and it was their undoing. Ireland are young and spirited and don't forget their players play county cricket (a pretty good level!).

I dont think the Irish have enough weapons in their armory to cause a upset anymore in this world cup as do Bangladesh...
