At the beginning of September, the ODI rankings were: SA: 1, Ind: 2, Aus: 3, Eng: 4, Nzl: 5 and Pak: 6.
But who is still alive in CCT09? Our dear mid-table mediocrities. Vagaries of life in general and cricket in particular....
Semis guesses were interesting as you can see from the above. Biju cleaned it up pretty much just for keeping faith on the Pommies. Remember what I said about the English...
Now for the 1st Semi-Final - The grudge match between Australia and England; Oh! it has been ages since they played last!! A whole 11 days have elapsed since they played last ;-)
A few changes to the guess rules:

The sans-Google quiz had two correct answers from Rohit and Mahesh today. Rohit accepted that he went to the omniscient source aka Google to get some inputs - even Google was not conclusive enough I believe. But not for me, as the big G gave me this.
By the way, the answer to yesterday's question is: All those words have one thing in common: They all have descended from the great Arabic language. No fruits, no cocktails.. good try, folks!
And today, we have another pictorial twist...
- Which place?
Answers in the usual mode. Attractive prizes for the trivia winners.

Quite an innovative way to put the quiz question, Sri-G!
I am also glad that you replaced the Mode of First Dismissal bet with a more interesting one. That was a total shot-in-the-dark bet without much logic spent.
Looking forward to regaining some profits. IND and AUS have slipped my hold on earlier winnings.
Very innvoative way to put the quiz question. Bravo!
I hope ENG keeps riding high (even though they have lost 4 wickets as of now).
The only way for me to regain some earlier winnings is for another upset to happen today!
