Sri Lanka will roll New Zealand.

Pakistan on their day could do it, but unlikely.

India will pants Sri Lanka.

Daniel Vettori, the New Zealand captain, is not impressed with the use of the same pitch for Tuesday's semi-final as the one that was used for the quarter-final against England on Saturday. "They've told us we're playing on the same one as England, which is very surprising for us," Vettori said on the eve of the first semi-final against Sri Lanka. "Playing a World Cup semi-final on a used wicket; we would have thought it would be mandatory to prepare a fresh wicket, but obviously not." Sri Lanka won their quarter-final easily, strangulating England's scoring through clever use of slow bowlers and Lasith Malinga at the death, and went on to win comfortably by 10 wickets.

Can understand his thoughts..SL playing lets go with the worn, low and slow pitch :roll:

New Zealand 3/136 (32.4 overs)

Taylor 26* (36)
Styris 32* (40)

Partnership 53* (11.3 over)

Good to see the Kiwis at this score, with the huge recent importance that they place on a steady, stable start and then a late explosion...lets just hope its as successful as it was against the Pakis

According to the TV guide I have, no coverage of the second semi, and the final will only be shown after 11:30 :roll:
