The winner moves on to the semifinals. PAK will be relying on the duo of S Afridi and A Razzaq to carry PAK through! NZ on the other hand have a good new ball attack, 2 very good spinners (i have been impressed by Patel)and more importantly the Kiwis always work as a "team". So overall i feel NZ have a slight edge and they should be able to beat PAK but in this case i would love to be wrong!
Toss to Pakistan. In this section, strangely, no team who won the toss has gone on to win the game as yet. (The opposite applies in the other section.)

past it already

I reckon Styris or Fleming could have pushed the tempo a bit more in the middle overs, but overall 274 isn't a bad effort, considering the start we had.

Why? How was NZ's batting any different than SA's yesterday, with the obvious exception that NZ took full advantage of the death overs.
brilliant batting performance from Stryis and Flemming and then some really good hitting in the last 3 overs...PAK will need to keep wickets in hand if they are to chase this down!
