WHY ARE AUSSIE THE FAVORITES TO WIN WC'07???? The answer is simple: Mental Tenacity and Positive Approach to game. Compare Aussie game style to other team - Do they ever give margin to any sort of low performance in any game? Simply, No. For them, every match is a must win. Killer Instinct. What is the logic behind Sri Lankans decision to not play Vaas, Murali and Malinga in an earlier match? May be Malinga was hurt, but I'm sure they decided on rest two to keep 'em as a triumph card. In such a high fever game, you are not allowing ur bowlers to get feel of what ur opponent is capable of. They probably think their secret weapon can create surprises. Surprise would, in fact, hit them when Hayden and Ponting starts blasting their bowler all around keeping their fielders well engaged chasing boundry rope. For the respect and intensity they bring to their game, Aussie deserve to win and they will, indeed. Thanks,
