Isnt this a great tournament...:lol:

West Indies beat India by seven wickets in a thrilling run chase at the Twenty20 World Cup at Lord's.
After India posted 153-7, Dwayne Bravo struck 66 not out off 36 balls and Lendl Simmons added 44 for West Indies to reach its target with 156-3 and eight balls to spare in the Super 8s.
Bravo finished the match in style by smacking a full toss from Zaheer Khan over extra cover for a six.
In all, he hit three sixes and four boundaries, adding an unbeaten 56 in 4.1 overs with Shivnarine Chanderpaul, who hit an unbeaten 9-ball 18.
Bravo also claimed 4-38 and Fidel Edwards 3-24 when India batted.
West Indies initially vindicated captain Chris Gayle's decision to field after winning the toss by ripping through the top order.
Rohit Sharma was first to go for 5, caught by Simmons off Edwards in the second over. Raina was blatantly out, but he stood his ground and walked only after the television umpire intervened.
Suresh Raina was next for 5, nicking a catch behind to Denesh Ramdin off Edwards.
Simmons then caught opener Gautan Gambhir after he miscued a Bravo delivery and India ended the powerplay with just 40 from six overs.
Captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni made 11 before he was caught on the boundary by Andre Fletcher off Bravo. India lurched at 66-4 but Yuvraj Singh (67) and Yusuf Pathan (31) launched a fierce counterattack.
Fletcher spilled a hard chance from Pathan, and the latter took advantage in the 15th over, with Pathan and Singh smacking Bravo for 16.
The duo put on 50 from 26 balls.
Singh was caught and bowled by Edwards in the 18th over, but Jerome Taylor missed a return catch from Pathan, who eventually went in the final over, bowled by Bravo. Harbhajan Singh, 13 not out, hit fours from the last three balls to give India a defendable target.
Pathan's brother Irfan struck an early blow during the chase when he had Fletcher caught by Yuvraj for a duck in the second over, and Harbhajan then bowled only the second maiden of the tournament in the sixth over.
When Gayle was caught by Khan off Irfan for 22, the Indian supporters who formed the overwhelming majority of the crowd, celebrated as if the game was already won.
But Simmons and Bravo put on 50 from 35 balls, and with wickets in hand the outcome hung in the balance.
In the 15th over both batsmen found themselves at the same end, only for Dhoni to fumble the ball and miss the chance of a run out, but two balls later Simmons was caught at deep square leg, after getting a top edge to Irfan. Simmons and Bravo shared 58 in 6.5 overs.
The momentum shifted decisively in West Indies' favor when Bravo and Chanderpaul scored 16 runs from the 17th over and 15 off the 18th, including a brilliant reverse sweep for four by Chanderpaul

Sri Lanka showed off the depth and versatility of their bowling when they beat Pakistan by 19 runs in their opening Twenty20 World Cup second round match at Lord's.
Defending a modest total of 150, Sri Lanka reduced Pakistan to 36 for three after six overs.
Pakistan captain Younus Khan and Misbah-ul-Haq gave their side a flicker of hope with a composed partnership of 66 from 10 overs before the latter was caught for 21 at mid-wicket off Muttiah Muralitharan.
Shahid Afridi fell in identical fashion off the next ball and Younus's dismissal for 50 in the following over effectively ended Pakistan's hopes. They finished their 20 overs on 131 for nine.
Sri Lanka opened their bowling with Angelo Mathews and Nuwan Kulasekera before unveiling their big three of Malinga, Muralitharan and Ajantha Mendis.
Mathews bowled Salman Butt for a duck with his third ball, finishing with a respectable one for 23 off his four overs. Malinga was the pick of the bowlers, taking three for 17.
Pakistan had made an awful start after losing the toss when Sohail Tanvir conceded 18 runs from an 11-ball over which contained three wides and two no-balls.
Sanath Jayasuriya (26) and Tillakaratne Dilshan (46) prospered from some further erratic bowling by stroking 65 from the first six overs with Jayasuriya hitting the first six of the match, swivelling on one leg to pull the ball over the boundary.
But after reaching 86 for one off the first 10 overs, Sri Lanka added only 64 in the second half of the innings as the Pakistan spinners Afridi, Shoaib Malik and Saeed Ajmal put a brake on the scoring.
Afridi, who took four for 11 against the Netherlands in the first round, was again the pick of the bowlers with two for 23 with his quick leg-spin.

Pace bowler Umar Gul captured a record five wickets this morning to propel Pakistan to an overwhelming six wicket victory over New Zealand in their Twenty20 World Cup second round match at the Oval in London.
Gul's five for six from three overs, the first five-wicket haul in a Twenty20 international, destroyed the New Zealand middle order as the Kiwis collapsed to 99 all out in 18.3 overs.
It was the lowest score of the tournament from a test playing nation after South Africa bowled England out for 111 at Trent Bridge on Thursday.
Pakistan were unrecognisable from the under-prepared side who lost by 48 runs to England in the first round last Sunday.
Abdul Razzaq, recalled to the side after two years in the Indian Cricket League in place of the injured Yasir Arafat, made the early breakthrough by dismissing the dangerous Brendon McCullum for 12.
Shahid Afridi was again a constant threat with his flat leg-spin, varying his pace cleverly to take one for 17. He also took a brilliant catch to dismiss Scott Styris (top scorer with 22), racing towards the boundary with his back to the pitch to grab a lofted on-drive.
Pakistan knocked off the runs from 13.1 overs, completing a miserable day for New Zealand captain Daniel Vettori who was making his first appearance of the tournament after a shoulder injury.
Vettori bowled the fourth over of the innings, with the fielding restrictions still in place, and saw his third ball disappear over his head for six.
He rallied, along with his team, to finish with a respectable two for 20 from his four overs but the result was never in doubt.

Pakistan have clinched a place in the semifinals of the Twenty20 World Cup by beating Ireland by 39 runs at the Oval.
"It was a crucial win for us," Pakistan captain Younis Khan said. "It was all about run rate and getting a bit of confidence for our batsmen."
Kamran Akmal top scored with 57 to help Pakistan reach 159-5, hitting five boundaries and a six in 51 balls, while Shahid Afridi was the next highest scorer with 24 from 13 balls.
Kyle McCallan took 2-26 and was the pick of the Irish attack that did well to limit Pakistan's scoring. Boyd Rankin bowled tightly and conceded just 11 runs from four overs, although he failed to take a wicket.
In reply, Ireland fell behind the required run rate, despite 40 from captain and opener William Porterfield.
Kevin O'Brien made 26, but Saeed Ajmal took 4-19 and Umar Gul 2-19 as Ireland finished on 120-9.
Khan won the toss and elected to bat, altering the established order.
"The batting order was always going to be flexible because we needed to get a couple of players in form for the semi-finals and the final," he said.
"Players like Shahid Afridi have been doing really well with the ball, but have struggled with the bat, so this was ideal for us."
The contrast between Ireland's opening bowlers was acute.
Rankin bowled with controlled aggression from the Vauxhall End and was unlucky not to take a wicket. But Trent Johnston struggled with his control, conceding 45 runs from his four overs, including 20 from his last.
He was replaced by Alex Cusack, who had taken four wickets on Sunday against Sri Lanka, and the switch immediately paid off when he had Shahzaib Hasan caught by McCallan at mid-off.
Pakistan were 38-1 after the power-play, but Shahid Afridi joined Akmal and scored quickly before he was caught by John Mooney off McCallan in the 10th over.
Three overs later, Regan West bowled Khan's leg stump as the Pakistan captain tried to sweep.
Johnston returned from the Vauxhall End to bowl Akmal in the 17th over and Misbah-ul-Haq was caught by Niall O'Brien in the 18th, three balls after hitting Kyle McCallan for six over long on.
In the last over, Abdul Razzaq added 13 with Shoaib Malik, including a six off Cusack that nearly cleared the Pavilion.
In reply, Ireland lost Niall O'Brien in the third over, caught and bowled by Mohammad Aamer, and were just 33-1 at the end of the powerplay, with the run rate already creeping up to nearly nine an over.
With last ball of the following over Afridi bowled Paul Stirling.
Porterfield and Kevin O'Brien reached 66-2 after 10 overs, but the former was caught by Khan off Ajmal in the 14th, with the score on 87-3 and Ireland needing an improbable 12 an over.

Razzaq dropped O'Brien off the second ball of the 16th over, bowled by Ajmal, but two balls later redeemed himself by holding on to an almost identical shot by John Mooney at long on.
With the first ball of the next over Johnston's leg stump was sent spinning out of the ground by Gul.
In the 18th over Ajmal had both O'Brien and Cusack stumped by Akmal and the collapse continued as Gul bowled White with the first ball of the next over.
Reagan West was run out two balls later and Ireland's participation in the tournament was effectively over.
"I think we've learned an awful lot," Porterfield said. "With the fielding we can compete with the best teams and set respectable totals, but with the batting we need to step up.
"To restrict Pakistan to 160 on that pitch with that outfield was a great effort."
After an indifferent start to the tournament, Khan now feels Pakistan's chances are excellent - if they can score more runs.
"It's only two games more and we can win the World Cup," he said. "But nobody knows what will happen in the next two games, especially against teams like England, South Africa and West Indies. They're all good teams and you need 170 plus."

South Africa off-spinner Johan Botha took three wickets to lead his team to a 12-run win over India, their fifth World Twenty20 victory in a row.
The South Africans, already through to the semifinals, denied eliminated India a consolation victory with another clinical performance despite only scoring a modest 130 for five.
They restricted India to 118 for eight thanks to excellent bowling from the spinners.
Defending champions India, who lost all three second-round matches to West Indies, England and South Africa, reached 48 without loss in the seventh over but then lost wickets regularly. Opener Rohit Sharma top-scored with 29.
Graeme Smith's South Africans will play Pakistan in Friday's (NZ time) semifinal at Nottingham. Sri Lanka and West Indies meet in the second semi-final at The Oval on Friday with a Lord's final awaiting the winners on Sunday.
The South African slow bowlers strangled the Indian batsmen with Botha's miserly figures matched by fellow spinner Roelof van der Merwe who took one for 14 from his four overs.
South Africa struggled in their innings.
Only AB de Villiers, with 63 from 51 deliveries, played the Indian bowlers with confidence, although Smith's run-a-ball 26 gave the innings good early momentum.
South Africa rested Jacques Kallis, their top run-scorer in the competition, because of a sore back but he should return on Friday.

Sri Lanka reached the Twenty20 World Cup semifinals after off-spinner Ajantha Mendis claimed three wickets to help defeat New Zealand by 48 runs in their eliminator at Trent Bridge this morning.
Man of the match Mendis had figures of three for nine including two crucial wickets in his second over as Sri Lanka defended their total of 158 for five by dismissing the Kiwis for 110 with three overs remaining.
"That's what a quality bowler can do," New Zealand captain Daniel Vettori told reporters when asked about the double-wicket over by Mendis.
"He bowled exceptionally well today along with some of their other bowlers. You have to admire the quality of bowling that was on display."
Vettori was "comfortable" with the run chase required but blamed another batting failure for his team's exit.
"One-sixty was a gettable target, we got off to a decent start but the capitulation in the middle left us with no chance."
Sri Lanka are in the last four and will play the West Indies while the other semifinal features South Africa against Pakistan after South Africa cruised home against India in this morning's other game.
Sri Lanka batsman Mahela Jayawardene, who played an imaginative reverse sweep with the back of his bat in his innings, said the team's experience at Trent Bridge - it was their fourth game there including a warm-up - helped.
"After playing a few games here we've realised 150 would be a good score given that we (the World Cup teams) are playing the fifth or sixth game on this track so we realised the wickets have been getting slower and slower," said Jayawardene.
"At the start of the day, we targeted 140 as a par score."
New Zealand threatened to overhaul Sri Lanka when opener Aaron Redmond crashed 23 from 13 balls and Martin Guptill hit 43 off 34 but the introduction of Mendis, who has bamboozled batsmen throughout the tournament, began a gradual demise.
In the ninth over the mystery spinner had Ross Taylor stumped sharply by Kumar Sangakkara and three balls later he bowled Scott Styris with a delivery that did not spin but drifted away and knocked over his off stump.
Mendis added the wicket of Peter McGlashan to a catch at point to hasten quite a turnaround after Redmond had struck Sanath Jayasuriya for three fours and a six in consecutive deliveries to end the second over as he raced to 20.
"I think we played the first six overs pretty well and I was fairly happy with our position," Vettori said.
Mendis has been bamboozling batsmen with his repertoire since his international debut in the West Indies last year.
"The guys picked him, I don't think he's a mystery bowler just a very good bowler," Vettori said.
"We can sit here and blame our players – and we will work hard on our reviews – but you still have to admire the quality of bowling on display."

Vettori admitted the Black Caps batting had struggled badly with the highest score against a major team being their 127 at Lord's, when they lost to South Africa by one run. Only against Scotland, when they knocked off 90 in six overs, and against Ireland where they racked up 198 has the order come close to its potential.
"It has been difficult, but we have been lucky with a fortunate draw which meant we could win just two games before today against associate teams and still have a chance of making the semifinals. In a lot of a ways that probably wasn't right.
"We were at full strength (today) apart from Jesse Ryder and, we still had the opportunity today to turn up and win the game so we are devastated.
"For a group of guys who had such high expectations, especially of our batting order, our highest score was about 120 and that's just not good enough."
Vettori said fatigue was not a reason even though some of his leading players featured in the Indian Premier League directly before the Twenty20 World Cup.
Vettori said a South Africa v Sri Lanka final at Lord's on Sunday looked to be on the cards.
"They play the game at different ends of the spectrum, South Africa with their discipline and skill, and Sri Lanka with the unorthodox nature of their batters and their bowlers," he said.
"They are probably the two teams that deserve to be in the final and it would be an amazing game if they came up against each other."
Sri Lanka's innings was dominated by opener Tillekeratne Dilshan, who stroked 48 from 37 balls, Jayawardene's 41 not out from 29 and Sangakkara's run a ball 35.
Realising he had to separate Sri Lanka's explosive openers early Vettori opened the bowling with offspinner Nathan McCullum.
The ploy worked immediately when Sanath Jayasuriya top-edged an attempted sweep to short fine leg, leaving Sri Lanka on three for one and was quickly followed by Chamara Silva, leaving them 25 for two.
But a 62-run stand between Kumar Sangakarra and Dilshan provided the platform for a strong finish to their innings.

Women lost, captain quit afterwards.

Windies were very poor in batting in their match, didn't recover after the freakish first over.

I'm not suprised Rolton quit, her captaincy was pretty poor after we had them 2 for 42 needing over 10 an over.

Shahid Afridi gave a spectacular all-round performance to propel Pakistan to a seven-run victory over South Africa in their Twenty20 World Cup cricket semifinal at Trent Bridge in Nottingham this morning.
Afridi scored 51 from 34 balls in Pakistan's 149 for four and then took two for 16 from his four overs as South Africa struggled to 142 for five.
Pakistan will meet the winners of Friday's semifinal between Sri Lanka and West Indies in the final at Lord's on Sunday.
"It was our last chance, it was a semifinal, we don't have any other chances after that. It is good for our team and it is good for Pakistan cricket," Afridi said.
Afridi, batting at number three, finally recaptured the explosive form which makes him such a threat in one-day cricket.
He took four boundaries off an over from off-spinner Johan Botha, including a wristy glide to third man.
South Africa captain Graeme Smith opted to persevere with spin, tossing the ball to part-time off-spinner JP Duminy.
Afridi tried to crash Duminy's first ball through the leg-side but managed only to loft it to AB de Villiers at mid-wicket who completed the catch.
After Afridi's departure, only Shoaib Malik with 34 from 39 made any impact and Pakistan added just 29 from the last five overs with one boundary.
Jacques Kallis anchored the South African reply with 64 from 54 balls including seven fours and a six.
He put on 40 for the first wicket from 5.5 overs with Smith (10) but the introduction of Afridi's quick leg-spin turned the match around.
Afridi beat the dangerous Herschelle Gibbs (5) with a leg-spinner outside the off-stump then bowled him with a delivery that slipped straight through. He followed up by bowling de Villiers for one.
Off-spinner Saeed Ajmal was also outstanding with one for 23 from four overs and his dismissal of Kallis, caught on the long-on boundary by Shoaib Malik, was the beginning of the end for South Africa.
"Afridi really played a great knock and got them ahead of the game and we had to fight back and we did that," said Smith.
"We had a solid start. Jacques played really well but we were just unable to finish it off."

Result: Pakistan win by 7 runs, advance to final
*************************************************
Sri Lanka overwhelmed West Indies with bat and ball at the Oval this morning to win their Twenty20 World Cup semi-final by 57 runs with 14 balls to spare.
Sri Lanka will meet Pakistan, who defeated South Africa yesterday, in Sunday's final at Lord's.
Man-of-the-match Tillakaratne Dilshan came within four runs of the first century of the tournament, batting through the innings to finish on 96 not out from 57 balls in Sri Lanka's 158 for five.
Angelo Mathews then clean-bowled Xavier Marshall, Lendl Simmons and Dwayne Bravo for ducks in an astonishing first over which effectively ended West Indies' run chase before it had begun.
CAPTAIN'S ROLE
Chris Gayle played a captain's role with no support from the other end.
He played and missed more than usual and was lucky not to become Mathews' fourth victim when he almost played on to the stumps but survived to carry his bat for 63 from 50 balls. No other batsman reached double figures.
Earlier, Sri Lanka openers Dilshan and Sanath Jayasuriya put on 73 for the first wicket before the latter was dismissed for a subdued 24.
Captain Kumar Sangakkara fell for a second-ball duck and Mahela Jayawardene made only two in West Indies' best passage of play.
Dilshan remained unruffled throughout. He struck Gayle for the first six of the innings, stroked three fours off a Kieron Pollard over and a further three off Bravo.
Jerome Taylor disappeared for six over mid-wicket and Mathews lent late assistance with a six and a four as Sri Lanka added 60 in the last five overs.
