Croatia and CR are playing semis in Porec, Croatia on clay.

Your opinions on this?

I think Croatia should win in 4.

Hmm this is an interesting one. I think Cilic is a better player than Berdych right now but Berdych is capable of beating Cilic for sure. Ljubicic and Stepanek are both past their primes but Stepanek is still ranked higher and getting better results. The Czech doubles team is probably stronger. Not really sure but could see the Czechs winning this one.

Why is my thread pushed way down? It seems Czechs can win this.

If Berdych can hold off Cilic they are in great shape.
