New Zealand lost to Australia and Ireland lost to Bangladesh. the only difference is that Ireland being an underdog in the tournament played very well and were on the verge of winning the match before poor batting and problems playing spin took match away from them. New Zealand on the other hand never looked like a test playing nation and now people can belive that this is the team that lost to Bangladesh and India without winning nay match before the world cup. I doubt when will ICC take some action and take away test playing nation cap frm both Bangladesh and New Zealand. Both the teams are not playign to the potential of a team that have won the right to play test matches for ICC.
Another thing common in both the matches played was both were low scoring matches only 200+ runs was the target. Let see what will happen in an exciting match tomorrow between Sri Lanka and Pakistan.
