Amazing all the variations that can occur! Me? I WISH the semi' was on tomorrow -- am going to be watching it sporadically at best this afternoon [but will watch the second session in its entirety'> -- because I do love an end-of-the-week sporting match. And can't WAIT till the final! My helper is Sri Lankan and she is already excited. :D

WM, It has been fun! :) p.s. I'm slightly upset about the sun, as I was told yesterday; had it continued raining today, the match would have been postponed to tomorrow, and if there was bad weather on Thursday, the match would've been shortened to a T20 format and if that couldn't happen - Pakistan would've have qualified for the final for their good behavior [i.e. better run rate :D'>

its raining in mohali... hope the sun shines tomm... else it will be real spoiler. So far, so good. A fabulously sunny day is being forecast, thank goodness, but if I won the toss, I'd still be batting first. Must remember the dew issue that creeps up when the sun goes down. ;) Should be an absolute pearler for the seamers. :) PS. Go India. Tee hee. :D

I like it when the stats are given a good shaking up. :D In other news, SL has lost another wicket, but it shouldn't affect their bottom line. 57 to win [101 balls remaining'> but they have seven wickets in hand. Should be a doddle.

Interesting facts: India has never conceded to Pakistan in a World Cup Match. Pakistan has never lost to India at Mohali. No host team has ever won the cricket WC final [in their home ground'>. Lets see which of these still holds true after this WC :)

Chances of Winning Team India are brighter. Their WC records over PAK is awesome but tomorrow I am sure it will be a good match and the team will win who is mentally stronger. Good Luck Team India

Tee hee. xxx PS. I read on a blog a few days back a summation of the teams that have gone through to the semi-finals. To wit: has there ever, in any World Cup, been a better collection of gorgeous/cute/yummy captains?! Daniel Vettori. Don't know what it is about him, but oh my word. :D Is it the nerd glasses? Or that rugged unshaved look? :P :)

My team's out, but oh my word, I am dashing around like a mad thing this morning, just so as I can be back for the Toss! What a superb semi'. Almost -- as someone else pointed out -- the Real Event [the final won't be nearly as exciting!'>. May the best team win, and with apologies, might that team be India? I'm having a party on Friday night with loads of Indians [no Pakistanis'> in attendance, and I fear the mood may be sombre at best if the host nation doesn't come through with the goods! :D Seriously, best of luck to all. Can't wait to watch. :)
