I think, they still are the fav to win the WC. its a temp. bad phase for the team n im sure they have it in them to come out of it similar to the time during 1999 WC when under steve waugh, the team came out of bad form and went on to win the WC'1999

Yes Australia is still the favourite team for the World Cup. I guess they are experimenting with their players and also of the perform in difficult situations. The reason is if they were so much concerned about losing matches then why don't you think they would play their full strength. Their skipper is not playing nor do the other is players so I think there right now not interested in these tournaments to win but rather more focused on the problems that they may face during the World Cup and so they're preparing according to that.

no body can write off aussies.they are greats in everysense.the recent statistics are due to some fitness troubles they are facing.they are still the favourites which i also sadly admits.i dont want and cant see them lifting the cup.

They certainly are.....anyone doubting it please go and see their record in 2003 WC where they were almost thrown out of the cup in the initial stages just to come back strongly and win it.....u should always take experience into account in such a grand event as this one
