An incredible day yesterday in the World Cup as Pakistan capitulated to Ireland to be the first team out of the tournament. Add to this Bangladesh's great performance in beating India and there was quite a recalculation of winning chances to do.
New Zealand's chances have increased considerably especially after they confirmed their superiority over England on Friday and Bangladesh now have a realistic (if slim) chance of going all the way, now being almost as likely as England to be world champions.
Meanwhile, despite the wonderful result Ireland's chances of victory remain non-existent with not one win in todays 20000 simulations, but I bet they enjoyed their Guiness yesterday.
Australia 33% (+3)
South Africa 28%
New Zealand 21% (+5)
Sri Lanka 8% (+1)
West Indies 7%
India 2% (-5)
England 1%
Bangladesh 1% (+1)
Pakistan 0% (-3)
Others 0%
