RE: ICC Cricket World Cup 2011
New Zealand 221/8 off 50 overs
South Africa 172 all out off 43.2 overs
New Zealand won by 49 runs
New Zealand got off to a poor start by losing 2 early wickets however a steady partnership between Ryder and Taylor which was worth 114 runs for the 3rd wicket after that wickets fell regularly and posted a below par score off 221. South Africa lost Amla early but a 61 run partnership between Kallis and Smith but like the England chase they collapsed from 108/2 to 172 all out after being at a decent postion to win the match.

RE: ICC Cricket World Cup 2011
England 229/6 off 50 overs
Sri Lanka 231/0 off 39.3 overs
Sri Lanka won by 10 wickets
England got off to a slow start however a good 4th wicket partnership between Trott and Morgan which was worth 91 runs as it got them to 229 which is about 25 to 30 runs short in my view and Sri Lanka were just simply too good for England.

RE: ICC Cricket World Cup 2011
New Zealand 217 all out off 48.5 overs
Sri Lanka 220/5 off 47.5 overs
Sri Lanka won by 5 wickets
New Zealand lost a few early wickets however a good 4th wicket partnership between Taylor and Styris which was worth 77 runs but after that wickets fell regularly and were all out for 217 which is pretty poor. Sri Lanka lost Tharanga early but Dilshan and Sangakkara put on 120 runs for the 2nd wicket but Sri Lanka suffered a mini collapse from 160/1 to 185/5 and therefore the match was a little bit closer but at the end they got there with ease.
