This is a tool that predicts the results in the 2012 Twenty20 World Cup, based on the specified importance of the various prediction factors, which are listed below:

• The importance of the ICC (International Cricket Council) world ratings, on a scale of 0 to 10.
• The importance of results in all the previous World Cups, on a scale of 0 to 10.
• The importance of home advantage, on a scale of 0 to 10.

If any of the prediction factors is set to 0, it will be ignored when making the predictions. Therefore, if all the prediction factors are set to 0, the predicted results will be completely random.

Note: The top two teams from each group (A to D) in the initial group stage progress to the Super 8s group stage (E to F). However, the group that a team progresses to is determined by the initial seeding of the team rather than their position in the initial group stage, unless a non-seeded team progresses in place of a seeded team, in which case it inherits the seeding of the removed team.
