Lets look at eng's performances vs the minnows in each of the last 3 T20 WCs shall we..?

2007 vs Zims.   http://www.espncricinfo.com/twenty20wc/engine/match/287858.html

ok, eng won by 50 runs but closer inspection of the scorecard shows they were 20/2 after 2.4 overs and that zims were
74/0 in reply after 8.4 overs Shocked  so you'd expect eng to have traded at least 1.25 - 1.30 in those moments,
possibly at lot more if the market panics. I think eng started as 1.1 favs or thereabouts

2009 vs Holland 
http://www.espncricinfo.com/wt202009/engine/match/355991.html

erm... Holland chase down 163,  1.03 or 1.04 gubbed to feck on eng here i think Shocked

2010 vs Ireland http://www.espncricinfo.com/world-twenty20-2010/engine/match/412681.html

eng bowled out for 120. Eng traded approx 1.9 at one point before the rain came. (wiping out a massive green on my screen Cry )

Afghans been the best of the minnows so far with a very decent bowling performance against india. Have had a mug back at 19.5

what's that supposed to mean.  ENG often get off to a bad start - it's in their nature - you can't tell much from 3.2 overs - if the RR is still this low after 10 overs I might agree with you.
