Jason Bowling 10 overs on the trot is a good strategy. He is bit slow to bowl in slog overs. I love the way Holder is shaping up as a captain.Good for West Indies Cricket.
The QFs matchups
South Africa have the toughest road to the finals - they would need to beat Sri Lanka and most likely New Zealand. Of the four quarterfinal matchups, the South Africa/Sri Lanka looks the most balanced to me. Should be a real high scoring game too.

SA bowling is bit out of sorts. Steyn looks short on pace. With Duminy, Behredin sharing 10+ overs could be 90 runs. Only chance of SA winning is to bat first & bat our SL. They just can`t chase & win.

Holder has had an excellent world cup and one of the pluses for him is that he has cemented his place in the side so there can be no question that he belongs.
In the captaincy department he is obviously still learning.
In the last world cup I think WI had a dismal quarter final performance. Let's hope there is no repeat.

Hopefully Steyn is saving his best for when it really matters. I'm more concerned about our "fifth bowler" combination. We're missing a real all-rounder in the mould of Kallis, Klusener and Pollock. Ryan McLaren wasn't selected due to lack of form, and it was too late for the selectors to find someone suitable to take his place.
The tournament gets really exciting now. I think any team could pull a surprise on a given day, so the only team I'd be willing to write off right now is Bangladesh.
