Daniel Vettori’s team has outperformed in all departments throughtout the tournament with Brendon McCullum, Ryder, Martin Guptill making consistently good scores at great strike rate and Kyle Mills, Shane Bond and captain himself have controlled the bowling department. New zeland has a great opportunity of winning the championship with such a team performance.

Australia likely to play out New Zeland in the semi final encounter unless Indian team fortune keeps them alive in the series. Ricky pointing Man have to outperform the Black Caps in virtually all departments if they wish to clinch the title and strengthen their position in team rankings.

After ending as a loosing side indian skipper must have analyzed their team performance, and come up with an uplifted side to beat Australian side who have shown an all-round performance in the match against west indies.

Dhoni has nothing much to alter in his choice of players for the must win match but to go with a right game plan. He must believe in some one to score good knock with batting as Ricky pointing with his 79runs and Mitchell Johnson with 73runs did for there last match. Also to say he must get back to his old great form in finishing the Indian innings.

India also needs to find depth in its bowling department which could not curtail Pakistan to a chasable total. apart from harbajan in the spin department dhoni has nothing much to expect from yusuf and virat kholi as partimers. And good fielding efforts can encourage the pacers like RP singh and ishant sharma to perform for a must win match.

To keep their semi-final chances alive India will have to beat Australia tomorrow and West Indies in the last league match on Wednesday. Dhoni believes the wicket at the SuperSport park tomorrow would be a fresh one. and hope India fights in all departments to win the further matches and fancy their chances for top spot in the tournament.
