ICC World Cup Cricket Match 2007

Ireland vs Sri Lanka

Super 8, Match 21, SL vs IRL: Sri Lanka bowls down Ireland

Sri Lanka Cricket team Ireland Cricket team Sri Lanka cruised to an eight-wicket win over Ireland in the teams' last World Cup Super 8s match on Wednesday, easily passing a lowly victory total. Sri Lanka, which had already been assured of its place in the semifinals for almost a week, bowled out Ireland for a tournament low 77 before reaching 81-2 with 40 of its 50 overs to spare.
Opener Upal Thuranga fell in the opening over of Sri Lanka's reply at Grenada National Stadium. But Sanath Jayasuriya and Mahela Jayawardene shared an unbroken third-wicket stand of 56 to seal the result.
Farveez Maharoof and Muttiah Muralitharan (4-19) had each taken four wickets for Sri Lanka, with Maharoof's haul of 4-25 including the top four batsmen and three wickets in four balls.

Ireland's total was the lowest of the tournament, replacing the 78 Bermuda managed against Sri Lanka in the first round. It was also the sixth lowest total in tournament history. However, Ireland's players took a well-deserved lap of honour after completing a first World Cup campaign that shocked everyone by stretching into the Super 8s.

Super 8, Match 21, SL vs IRL: Sri Lanka take on resurgent Ireland

Sri Lanka Cricket team Ireland Cricket team Sri Lanka could rest at least one of their still potent but now aging bowlers Chaminda Vaas and Muttiah Muralitharan for their final Super Eights match against Ireland on Wednesday.
Left-arm swing bowler Vaas, 33, and off-spinner Muralitharan, who turned 35 on Tuesday, sat out Monday`s seven-wicket defeat by defending champions Australia. Their absence helped to spoil the match as a contest and prompted speculation that they had been deliberately sidelined to keep them away from the Australian batsmen before a possible Australia-Sri Lanka final in Barbados on April 28.
Australia are on course for a semi-final in St Lucia next Wednesday against the fourth-placed side in the second round while Sri Lanka look certain to meet New Zealand in Jamaica on the previous day. Sri Lanka captain Mahela Jayawardene defended his decision to rest two of the bowlers who were instrumental in winning the 1996 World Cup and said it had not been a tactical ploy. He said Muralitharan had been suffering from a groin strain while Vaas had missed the World Cup warm-up matches because of a sore hamstring.

Sri Lanka team (from): U Tharanga, S Jayasuriya, K Sangakkara (wkt), M Jayawardene (capt), C Silva, T Dilshan, R Arnold, F Maharoof, C Vaas, M Muralitharan, D Fernando, L Malinga, N Kulasekara, M Bandara, M Atapattu.
Ireland team (from): W Porterfield, J Bray, E Morgan, N O'Brien (wkt), K O'Brien, T Johnston (capt), A White, D Langford-Smith, A Botha, K McCallan, B Rankin.

2007 Tournament Format

The 2007 Cricket World Cup was hosted by the West Indies from March 11 to April 28, 2007. It was contested by 16 nations.

The ten Test Match-playing countries qualified for the World Cup automatically, along with Kenya, which had ODI status and five further teams qualified via the 2005 ICC Trophy. The field of sixteen teams was the largest ever for the Cricket World Cup.

The teams were divided into 4 groups, with each group playing its matches at one ground. The top two teams from each group competed in a Super 8 format, similar to the previous "Super 6" format, from which the semi-finalists were decided. Australia, New Zealand, Sri Lanka and South Africa won through to the semi-finals, with Australia defeating Sri Lanka in the final to win their third consecutive World Cup.
There were 51 matches overall, spread over eight venues across the West Indies, which were selected to host the World Cup final tournament.

Bob Woolmer Murdered Notable events of the tournament included the death of Bob Woolmer, the Pakistan coach, which happened one day after his team's defeat to Ireland, which put them out of the running for the World Cup.
India scored 413-5 in 50 overs against Bermuda, breaking the World Cup record for the highest team total. Herschelle Gibbs hit six sixes in one Daan van Bunge over for South Africa against the Netherlands, becoming the first player to achieve the feat in ODI cricket. Australia became the first team to win 3 consecutive World Cups.

Cricket World Cup Quotes..

I fully expect us to win every game we play, it doesn't matter what the make-up of the team is.
Ricky Ponting, Australian skipper.

Is this a resignation issue? I'll have to talk with my superiors on that.
former New Zealand captain and Match referee Jeff Crowe on the blunder by him and the umpires which caused the farcical scenes at the end of the World Cup final.

I guess it was nice to finish off with a catch behind with Gilly.
McGrath on Gilchrist catching Arnold to give him his last ODI wicket. He is the tournament's leading wicket-taker with a record haul of 25 wickets and the most successful World Cup bowler of all-time.

It was really pleasing to do it on an important day. I've been getting a lot of starts but hadn't converted.
Adam Gilchrist who smashed a final record 149 off 104 balls to set up the victory.

It was simply a brilliant innings from Gilchrist, unfortunately I was the opposition captain watching it.
Sri Lanka captain Mahela Jayawardene about Adam Gilchrist's 149 off just 104 balls.

My learned commentary is, my commentary is congratulations to Ricky and the boys, but to Glenn McGrath, that lanky bloke from Narromine, thanks for a wonderful contribution to Australian cricket.
Prime Minister "cricket tragic" John Howard.

We listen to criticism, and there has been a lot of it from people saying it's been too long - so we'll look to make it shorter.
ICC chief executive Malcolm Speed.
