One of the Champions Trophy semi-finals will be an upset

[bujhee kom]

Just a hunch I have.

 

[thehub]

hopefully Pakistan winning against England and getting thrashed in finals.

 

[ethan hunt]

India might get lucky and upset Bangladesh .

 

[bujhee kom]

One of Pak or Bd will upset the favorites.

 

[cricketInsight]

Well, I will be quite satisfied with at least 1 upset in the Semis.

 

[Pakpak]

India might get lucky and upset Bangladesh .

Good bait

 

[bujhee kom]

Good bait

He's an expert.

i hope it will be tomorrow, so that we have an India Pakistan final. if BD upsets india, then it would be a boring context on June 18th..

I hope that tomorrow's match is not going to be a boring one sided affairs.We all know how Pakistan succumbs to pressure.

 

[Napa]

Just a hunch I have.

Your hunch is well founded. Currently, according to the bookmakers the probability of England winning is 70% and India willing is 75%. So the probability of both winning is only 52.5%, almost the toss of a coin.

Nice one

There is no pressure on Pakistan. They have exceeded our expectations.

exactly and Bangladesh have won 5 world cups 10 champions trophies and 4 t20 wc.. man they can cope with pressure..

I hope the second semi isnt a one sided affair. Go easy on India so we could have an interesting match.

Call it an upset or whatever you want to call it but Pakistan will advance to Final, after a long long time one can feel that their pace attack has shaped up very well.

Pakistan is always a competitive side when their bowlers are in good form and luckily all of the three pacers we have are in good form and match winners on their day.

This pace trio has the capacity to collectively do it once what Waqar and Wasim did on numerous occasions to english batting line-up,i.e, demolish their top and middle order in one spell.

Bangladesh and India will also have a nail biting match. I want Pak-Indo final but I also feel that BD may make their way to the final.

 

[shokz1408]

Personally I don't consider it an upset, I see us getting past england and booking our place into the final.

 

[KamranDestiny]

Imagine if Pakistan upset England in the semi final and then upset India in the final!!

 

[Belawal2014]

Imagine if Pakistan upset England in the semi final and then upset India in the final!!

Keep imagining.

 

[KamranDestiny]

Keep imagining.

Lol yeah cus it can only happen in our imagination

that's not how probabilities are calculated. right?

 

[Sin Nombre]

that's not how probabilities are calculated. right?

napa is right.

There is a 47.5% chance that one of BD or Pak will qualify for the finals.

 

[Napa]

that's not how probabilities are calculated. right?

The probabilities of that both of two independent events happen is the multiple of individual probabilities.

So the probability of both India and England winnings is 0.70 x 0.75 = 0.525

Probability that both Bangladesh and Pakistan will qualify (two upsets) = 0.3 x 0.25 = 7.5%

So probability that there will be only one upset = 1 - 0.525 - 0.075 = 40%

ENG doesn't stand much of a chance against PAK.

IND could pull off a thriller against BANG I suppose.

 

[Mainul]

I hope the second semi isnt a one sided affair. Go easy on India so we could have an interesting match.

Everybody wants the same,a thrilling evenly contested match.The problem is both England and India are miles ahead of Pakistan and Bangladesh in strength,might and capabilities.They are the two ODI teams who are in a different planet than the others at this moment.That's why i am afraid we can have two one sided affairs in semis.I sincerely hope that it doesn't happen in that way.

 

[Mainul]

There is no pressure on Pakistan. They have exceeded our expectations.

Fans always hope for a win.You are right, the pressure of expectations is not that great on Pakistan this time around.We ,Bangladeshis also know the difference in strength of two teams-India and Bangladesh.Bangladesh has also fulfilled our expectations already by reaching the semifinal.But i want that both the teams go for the win,whatever the situation is .But for that,both Bangladesh and Pakistan should have nerve of steel.It's a big big match,big occasion.Pakistan has many experiences of this type of high voltage matches,Bangladesh don't have any except one WC quarterfinal and one Asia cup final.Let's see how they cope with the pressure.

 

[roshanrocks]

England is on course to upset Pakistani fans

 

[bujhee kom]

Was going to write it wont be this one.

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

If Pak can not make it then can bd have all the Pak support for their semi final match???

 

[vandokkum]

If Pak can not make it then can bd have all the Pak support for their semi final match???

Indians will outnumber both Pak and BD fans combined 10 to 1.

 

[bujhee kom]

Indians will outnumber both Pak and BD fans combined 10 to 1.

Half the fans will be Eng fans AND all neutrals will back England.

 

[roshanrocks]

Was going to write it wont be this one.

Bangladesh winning is no longer an upset. Or do bangladeshis still consider their team as weaklings?

 

[bujhee kom]

Pak v Bangladesh is the final we want. Beating Pak in a final would be the greatest day ever after independence. Joy Bangla!

 

[hadi123]

good prediction
