Watch NZ vs SA Semi Final Live Streaming
Here is a dream semi final and why not? It can bring true dreams of many cricket fans who waited waited for ages to see their team in a world cup final. When New Zealand lock horns with South Africa at the Eden Park for the first semi final, one of these two will emerge as a winner who would play world cup final for the first time. Watch New Zealand vs South Africa world cup semi final live streaming and telecast on Star Sports HD network with live English and Hindi commentary.
Talking about New Zealand they haven't seen a loss yet. Seven wins on the trot shows how confident this team is to nail the world cup this time. They play yet another match at home and this time its the big one - a semi-final. Playing at Auckland with almost 40,000 spectators would be such a confidence booster for the home team.
If New Zealand wins this one they will play in Australia for the first time in this world cup. That could be a setback in terms of settling down in the Australian conditions. The last time they played an ODI match in Australia was more than six years ago.
New Zealand have dominated in all departments of cricket. They have been a bit vulnerable against real pace. Their weakness was exposed when they chased a small target against Australia and still they lost nine wickets. South Africa too has a good pace battery with the likes of Morne Morkel, Abbott and Dale Steyn.
South Africa has been good but not upto their best. Yes they scored real big scores against the minnows but they couldn't clinch wins against India and Pakistan. They gained some confidence before entering the semis by nailing a big win over mighty Sri Lankans.
AB de Villiers had made it pretty clear that they won't choke this time. They want to get rid of that unwanted tag of chokers. He believes if the team performs to the optimum then they are unstoppable. They know the patch is tough ahead. It would be an uphill task to beat New Zealand who haven't lost a single match yet. Even if they manage to beat the Kiwis, they will face India or Australia in the finals. That would be another daunting task for South Africa to clinch their maiden world cup title.
Auckland's stadium is small and good enough for the big hitters of both the teams to score big. Toss becomes important as well as tricky in such matches. Let's see who enters the finals to move a step closer to the world cup title win.
