Star trek - March 18

Australia v Holland:

Australia are going to show their might to Holland and send a message to the world that they are still the defending champions.

Ricky Ponting is going to lead his side from the front once again as his Moon is very strong. Nathan Braken's Mercury, Michael Clarke's Mars and Mathew Hayden's Jupiter are on the ascendancy. Michael Hussey, Shaun Tait and Shane Watson will spell terror on the field as their Sun is aligning beautifully with the match day's Sun.

The Holland players, though not much of an opposition to the mighty Aussies, will still put up a brave front. Luuk van Troost, Tim de Leede, Mark Jonkman and Alexei Kervezee will do well as their Mars is quite strong. Edgar Schiferli and Jeroen Smits will also fare well as their Moon is matching with the day's Moon.

Canada v England:

John Davison's Venus is aligning well with the day's Venus. Therefore he will use his limited resources with lots of skill. Kevin Sandher's Jupiter, Desmond Chumney's Sun and Austin Codrington's Moon are providing total support. Sunil Dhaniram, Qaiser Ali and Ian Billcliff will gave 100 per cent as their Mars is on the ascendancy.

This match will provide a perfect practice ground to England. James Anderson's Moon, Ian Bell's Mercury, Jamie Dalrymple's Venus and Ed Joyce's Jupiter will provide them with one of the best days in this World Cup. Paul Nixon, Monty Panesar and Kevin Pietersen will also do well as their Moons are matching with the day's Moon. This match will prove a morale-boosting win to England.

- Astrologer Ajai Bhambi's will be giving his predictions before every game.

Are you superstitious about your team's chances in this World Cup? Is it okay for sportsmen to be superstitious before they go out to perform

Reading these funny and unrealistic predictions on Strek Trek shows how unreliable astrology really is. The teams that have put in team work and displayed determination have come out in flying colours. It's high time we bowled astrology out.

I don't believe in predictions but still love to read them . This person has proved himself totally wrong till now.

It will be better if Ajay gives his opinion after the matches are over rather than before every game. India lost and Pakistan are out of the World Cup. He is only exposing his lack of astrological knowledge.

Yesterday, Bhambi said India and Pakistan will win their respective matches. Also, he said that Tendulkar and Inzamam will give good performances. Both the predictions were wrong.
