Revision as of 17:05, 13 April 2007

The Super Eight stage of the 2007 Cricket World Cup is scheduled between 27 March 2007 and 21 April 2007, and will determine the four qualifiers for the semi-finals of the tournament. Matches will be held in Antigua, Bridgetown in Barbados, Georgetown in Guyana, and Grenada.

Each team carries forward the result from the other team qualifying from its group in the group stage of the tournament, so the Super Eight is essentially an eight-team round robin competition. Two points are awarded for a win and one for a tie or a no result. If teams are tied on points, the team with the most wins is ranked ahead, and if this is also equal net run rate determines the ranking order.

Table

The four top teams, in gray background in the table below, are in positions to qualify for the semi-finals.

The other six seeded teams proceeded, with Australia beating the number one rank in the One-day International championship South Africa. New Zealand, Sri Lanka and West Indies also carried one win forward from the group stage.

ICC ODI Championship rankings

These were the rankings as of 12 March, before the group stage began.

To find the record of a particular team, find its row in the table, and then look along the row to find its record against all opponents. (Thus, for example, Australia have won 17 and lost five against New Zealand.)

Matches in Antigua and Guyana (27 March to 9 April)

27 March: West Indies v Australia

Tuesday 27 March to Wednesday 28 March
v

Australia were put in to bat by Brian Lara as the ball moved about and deviated off the seam in the early overs.[5] Daren Powell got the wicket of Adam Gilcrist with an inside edge, while Matthew Hayden could not score off his first 17 deliveries – then made 158 runs from the next 126 to make the highest innings for Australia in a World Cup match.[6] However, Ricky Ponting and Hayden scored at above six an over in their partnership, before Ponting was eventually run out. Hayden added 98 for the third wicket with Michael Clarke before Dwayne Bravo broke through, and Andrew Symonds and Michael Hussey could not provide more than 15 runs to the team cause. Hussey got out the total at 234 for five in the 41st over, but Hayden eventually led Australia to break loose in the last 10 overs, taking 99 from them despite a 20-minute break for rain. Shane Watson's 33 from 26 balls also helped push Australia to 322 for 6 after the full 50 overs. This was the sixth successive score above 300 for Australia, a new One-day International record.[6]

Drizzle and wet ground conditions delayed the start of West Indies' reply and the game was eventually abandoned to resume the following day. They lost three wickets in the first 20 overs, and though Brian Lara and Denesh Ramdin contributed fifties, they required 105 to win off 28 balls when Daren Powell was bowled by Shaun Tait. Earlier, Glenn McGrath had removed Chris Gayle, Marlon Samuels and Dwayne Bravo for single-figure scores, thus moving within one wicket of Wasim Akram's World Cup record.

This was the first international match at the new Sir Vivian Richards Stadium. The stadium was barely half-filled for the game,[7] causing criticism from notables such as West Indies' captain Brian Lara and commentator Mark Nicholas.

28 March: South Africa v Sri Lanka

Wednesday

Template:RSAc won by one wicket[8]
Providence Stadium, Georgetown, Guyana
Umpires: S. A. Bucknor (WI) and D. J. Harper (Aus)
Player of the match: C. K. Langeveldt (SA) and S. L. Malinga (SL)

Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to bat, and lost their first five wickets for 98, with Charl Langeveldt taking two in his first spell. Tillakaratne Dilshan and Russel Arnold built a sixth-wicket stand of 97 in nearly 20 overs, but Dilshan was caught off Makhaya Ntini's bowling, and then Charl Langeveldt took three wickets in five balls as Sri Lanka were bowled out in the final over for 209. In reply, Chaminda Vaas had AB de Villiers bowled in the first over, but Jacques Kallis added 95 with Graeme Smith and 65 with Herschelle Gibbs, leading South Africa to within four runs of victory with his 86. Then Sri Lanka's Lasith Malinga struck. He became the first bowler to take four wickets with four consecutive deliveries in international cricket, though South Africa managed a run off Vaas in the intermediate over. South Africa now needed three runs to win with one wicket in hand, and eleven deliveries went by before Robin Peterson got an outside edge to a Malinga ball, which went out of reach of slip and went fine for four.[9]

29 March: West Indies v New Zealand

Thursday

30 March: Ireland v England

England batted first, but lost both openers to Boyd Rankin in six overs, before Ian Bell spent 74 balls making his 31. When Bell got out, the run rate was slightly above 4; in the final 28 overs it was in excess of 6, with Paul Collingwood making 90, Kevin Pietersen 48 and Andrew Flintoff 43. Kyle McCallan was the most economical bowler for Ireland, and also took the wicket of Pietersen.

Chasing 267 in reply, Niall O'Brien's third One-day International fifty and his second of the World Cup helped Ireland to a total of 139 for six in the 37th over, but despite faster than a run a ball scores from Trent Johnston and Andrew White Ireland fell 48 runs short as Andrew Flintoff took the final two wickets, though they exceeded their previous World Cup record total by seven runs.

31 March: Australia v Bangladesh

The start of the match was delayed due to bad weather, but a full 50-over match was played, which resulted in West Indies' third defeat in four days. Sanath Jayasuriya and Mahela Jayawardene added 183 for the third wicket, before Tillakaratne Dilshan came in and took 39 off 22 deliveries as the final eleven overs yielded 84 runs. In reply, West Indies needed 170 off 94 when Ramnaresh Sarwan was stumped off Sanath Jayasuriya; they only got 56 of those, and were bowled out for 190, with four batsmen out in single figures.

2 April: Bangladesh v New Zealand

Sri Lanka batted first and made 235, bowled out off the last ball with a run out. England lost their openers for 0 and 10, but Ian Bell and Kevin Pietersen made a stand of 90 for the third wicket, and Paul Collingwood joined Pietersen to add a further 25 before Pietersen was caught and bowled by Muttiah Muralitharan. England then lost two more wickets for seven runs to Dilhara Fernando, and required 103 off 16.3 overs with four wickets in hand. However, Ravinder Bopara scored a half-century in his fourth One-Day International innings, as he and Paul Nixon took England within three runs of victory. However, Fernando returned for the last over, and bowled Bopara off the last ball.
