Can Kiwis Make their First World Cup Final?

Now we are at the end of the World Cup and after another three matches we have a new world Champion after 12 years. Is it a country which has won the world Cup before? Or a Country which doesn’t have won a world cup before? Tomorrow match will decide it. If Srilanka win tomorrow it will be won by the country which has won it before. But if it is New Zealand, there may be a chance that it will be won by the country that hasn’t won before.

Srilanka vs New Zealand, they have met in the world Cup Semifinal in 2007. In 2007 Srilanka qualified to the finals. Can they make it again in2011? We will see.

SriLanka have played 3 world cup semifinals and they have selected to the finals in two times.
But New Zealand haven’t played a world cup final yet. So they will give your all to go to the finals.

Srilanka and New Zealand have met in the group stages and srilanka have won it easily. But tomorrow is a new day.

Now we will consider these two teams and what they have to do to win this match. This match will play in srilanka and so they will have the Ground support and the advantage of playing there home ground.
But normally in Premadasa, it is difficult to chase 250. This will double by the semifinal pressure.

Srilanka have three quality spinners and most of the time they will play with three spinners in the spinner friendly pitch against the team who are not good at spinners. So in it is very difficult to chance 250 against srilanka. So if New Zealand lost the toss and srilanka will bat first they have to restrict srilanka under 250.
It is the difficult part. They have the most successful opening pair in this world cup. Tharanga and Dilshan have had 200+ partnerships twice and both of them are in good form. So first they have to put some pressure and use it to take one wicket. Then they have to take sangakkara as soon as possible. He will Do his best and he is in good form. Then jayawardena. He can play an innings which he played in 2007. So if New Zealand can take these wickets as quickly as possible they have a chance. If one or two gets going they will take 250. The important thing is create pressure and use it to take wickets. But sangakkara and jayawardena are watchful players and don’t give there wicket easily in this type of match.
In New Zealand balling, Soutthi and Oram have to do well as they did it past. It is difficult to create pressure using spinners for srilanka. But Vitori and Nathan can do lot for their team.
Then if they restrict srilanka under 250, there batsmen’s have to do lot. First thing is be patient and try to build partnerships by taking singles as trot and bopara did in last match. But they have to take 5-6 runs per over without take risks. Then srilanka will feel the pressure and New Zealand can chase those runs. Guptill, McCulam has to get good start and Ryder, taylor and styriss has to play long innings. Then they can reach this.

If New Zealand bats first they have to score 250+. If they do this they have a good chance with their ballers by creating pressure to srilanka. But in here also their ballers and batsmen have to follow above instructions.

In srilankan view, they will play with their spinners and they will create pressure for New Zealand. So they can do lot with their ballers. But they have to cut easy runs in middle overs. In England match they have given easy singles. But they have to put pressure at that time.

But in there batting they are heavily depend on first four batsmen. So they have to do their well. Middle order has to get runs. They haven’t played well in past matches and they didn’t get lot of chances also. If they chase they have to restrict NewZealand below 250 and don’t give the pressure for the middle order by losing quick wickets.
If they bat first they have to get 250 and put pressure with their balling.
If they able to do it they can win this.
I think if Srilanka scored 250 or if they restrict New Zealand fewer than 250 ,they have a Real chance. Else we have a close match.
But in this Srilanka Has the Advantage. We will see tomorrow.
