Match 16 & 17 - SA & PAK
This is another day where it's two games on. South Africa playing their second game won their first with West Indians. There second match is against Netherlands. This is Netherlands third match. They have lost too England & West Indians.
Netherlands won the toss and chose to feild but that was a mistake you only do that if you know you can chase down a high score. Playing against one of top form teams they would put up a high score.
I did not watch the start of the innings because it was a early start but I watch a little of the power play of the 40th over. SA got to a very good score at mohali stadium that max score was 251. SA made it it a 100 more and there final score was 351 runs. Can Netherlands chase it down as well as Ireland did. Let's wait for the chase it be exciting.
There is another match on coming on Pakistan this is there third match and won both already. It's Canada third match also but lost both there games and would loose against Pakistan also. Pakistan has lost four wicket's already but I think they would still make a big score and that Canada can't chase.
Netherlands did a stupid decided won the toss and filed first they got bowled out for 120 runs. SA wins there second match by 231runs. They lead the points they are top of India with four points.
The batting of Pakistan they just collapse they where bowled out for 184 that's low for them. Pakistan needs to win so they qualify for the super eight.
Canada chase looked easy. They build up pressure with Pakistan. But Afradi is the man of the moment with that ball. It looked like it was going to be another upset Canada could have won. They had less runs and balls. It only came close when they where getting the wicket's if Pakistan did not get wicket's they would of still been playing.
They lost wicket's quickly Afradi took 23/5 he is the leading wicket taker in the world cup he took 14 wickets he is again man of the match. Pakistan is the first time through to the quarter finals. Pakistan batting collapse but they can attack with their bowling that's great. Canada all out for 138 runs from 43 overs.
