ICC T20 World Cup guessing contest for Admin Points


Recommended Posts

The ICC T20 World Cup is underway in the UAE and since we have reached the final stages of the event we here at Askgamblers have decided to have a fun contest where forum members get a chance to pick the winners for the Semi finals and the Finals. Members who mange to pick the correct winners will win Admin points which they can exchange for cash. The contest will be divided in to two halves the semi final predictions and finals predictions. You will get to choose the winners for semi finals from the two matches and every correct pick will be rewarded by 200 points. Predicting the winner of the Finals will get you 600 points.

Part 1- Semi Finals

Semi Final 1- Australia vs South Africa

The T20 world Cup has been held 8 times before 2024 and Australia has won it 6 times and have been runners up once. They have a lot of experience and are the favorites to win this game. South Africa's best performance was last year where they reached the Finals but lost to Australia. South Africa would want a revenge of their loss  meanwhile Australia would like to make it to their 8th final.

Australia and South Africa have played each other 10 times and Australia has dominated them with 9 wins. Australia are currently unbeaten in the tournament and  are looking unstoppable. South Africa on the has been in a good form too and have won 3 out of their last four matches.

Australia Form-

Match 1 vs Sri Lanka- Won by 6 wickets

Match 2 vs New Zealand- Won by 60 runs

Match 3 vs Pakistan- Won by 9 wickets

Match 4 vs India- Won by 9 runs

South Africa Form-

Match 1 vs West indies- Won by 10 wickets

Match 2 vs England- lost by 7 wickets

Match 3 vs Scotland- Won by 80 runs

Match 4 vs Bangladesh- Won by 7 wickets

 

Semi Final 2- New Zealand vs West Indies

New Zealand has never won the World cup but have been in the Finals twice. West Indies has won the world cup once that was 10 years ago but they have a very bad record at the semi final of this tournament where they have lost 3 times in semi finals. New Zealand would like to capitalize on the fact that West Indies gets nervous during big occasions. Its important to mention that every time New Zealand has played a semi Final they have always made it to the Finals. When you look at the head to head record the two teams have played each other 22 times and New Zealand leads with 17 victories. During the current tournament New Zealand and West Indies both have won 3 out of their 4 matches.

New Zealand Form-

 

Match 1 vs India- Won by 58 runs

Match 2 vs Australia- lost by 60 runs

Match 3 vs Sri Lanka- Won by 8 wickets

Match 4 vs Pakistan- Won by 54 runs

West Indies Form-

 

Match 1 vs South Africa- Lost by 10 wickets

Match 2 vs Scotland- won by 6 wickets

Match 3 vs Bangladesh- Won by 8 wickets

Well, well, well. What an upset. South Africa had defeated Australia for the first time in t20 world cup. Only @marius1978 got it right.

Are you happy to record the points on this one please? Do we have another guessing round now?

Part 2- Finals

South Africa vs New Zealand

Its South Africa vs New Zealand at the t 20 world cup final and no matter who wins we are going to have a new Champion.

This is South Africa's 2nd final appearance in as many years and they would like to achieve a victory and lift the cup. Tomorrow's match for New Zealand is their third Final appearance and they might get lucky the third.

New Zealand and South Africa have played each other 16 times where the former team has won 11 matches and the latter 4. One was no result. Looking at their recent form both teams finished second in their respective groups and both of them have won 4 out of their last 5 matches.

Pick your winner carefully as a correct prediction will give you 600 points which is equivalent to €15.

FINALS-

NEW ZEALAND VS SOUTH AFRICA
