Aussies

The only team to stay unbeaten in this tournament yet is the Australian team.

Not only that, all their victories have been convincing and huge.

Ponting has led from the front, and despite their bowling attack not as it was in the last world cup, Tait has been phenomenal and so have been the others. Their depth in batting never stops to amaze me. Apart from Ponting, sometimes it is Hayden, sometimes Gilchrist, and then there are Clarke, Symonds,Hodge and Hussey. All in sublime form!!!

I repeat - This Australian team basically bats the other team out of the game. To beat Australia, the opponents will have to bowl out of their skins - As of now, the only possible candidates look like Murali and Bond. No one else comes close.

Aussies sure appear to be favourites for this WC at this stage as well!
