Hey, I am a big fan of cricket and would like to discuss about the upcoming champioship -THE ICC TWENTY20 CRICKET TROPHY.I know that most of the people in western countries don't know about cricket

but,I can only give intro to them-
Cricket is a game played between two teams, generally of 11 members each. In essence, it is single combat, in which an individual batsman does battle against an individual bowler, who has helpers known as fielders. The bowler propels the ball with a straight arm from one end of the 22-yard pitch in an attempt to dismiss the batsman by hitting a target known as the wicket at the other end, or by causing the batsman to hit the ball into the air into a fielder’s grasp, or by inducing one of a number of other indiscretions. The batsman attempts to defend the wicket with the bat and to score runs – the currency of the game – by striking the ball to the field boundary, or far enough from the fielders to allow the batsman to run to the other end of the pitch before the ball can be returned. At least two bowlers must take turns, from alternating ends; also, there are always two batsmen on the field, each to take a turn as required. When all but one of the batting team have been dismissed – or after an agreed period (known as innings)– the teams’ roles are reversed. After all the players required to bat on both sides have done so either once or twice (which can take from a few hours to five days) the total number of runs accumulated determines the winner.The team having the max. runs in the end becomes the winner.Also,when a batsmen scores 100+ runs in Innings,he is said to have scored a hundred or has made a century.

Here are the positions of fielders-

But only 10 of these can be occupied as the one is the bowler.

I think I have given the basic information of cricket and 20-20 cricket,Now I will love to see your replies to these question's about the 20-20 trophy-

1. who do you think would be the best bowler of the tournament?
2. who do you think will be the best batsmen?(except sachin tendulkar)
3. who do you think will be the player of the series?
4. how many centuries would be scored?
5. who will score the max. centuries?
6. And last,Who will win the tournament?(except aussie's,I am bored of them)
