The journey of World cup 2011 began on 19th February 2011. The opening ceremony took place at Dhaka the capital of Bangladesh. Fourteen teams started their trip with a dream of leading the world of cricket. ICC scheduled forty nine matches among these hopeful passengers and this world cup 2011 consists of four stages. These stages include the Group stage, quarter final stage, semi final stage and the finals. In group stage the batch of fourteen teams was divided into groups of seven each and thus two groups were constituted. In each group every team was supposed to face six of its rivals, so six matches for each team. Forty one matches were played in group stage which concluded that six passengers have to leave the journey. These unlucky teams were Zimbabwe, Canada, Kenya, Ireland, Bangladesh and Netherlands. Then comes the quarter finals. Four matches between eight teams were played and the luck was decided. In this stage four teams were dropped which also include the former world cup champions (Australia). Four teams including Pakistan, India, New Zealand and Sri Lanka qualified for Semi finals. In semi final stage again two teams qualified and made their way towards final and the other two teams packed their luggage and traveled towards their home countries. India and Sri Lanka qualified for finals whereas New Zealand and Pakistan could not succeeded. Now the last match which will decide the ruling team of this world cup 2011 will be played on 2nd of April 2011 in Mumbai. Both the teams are strong and there will be a good contest. Although it is difficult to predict who will win but there are more chances for India to be world cup 2011 Champions. Best of luck to both teams and enjoy live cricket on www.criclights.com.
