2007 Cricket World Cup Super Eight stage
The Super Eight stage of the 2007 Cricket World Cup was scheduled between 27 March 2007 and 21 April 2007, and determined the four qualifiers for the semi-finals of the tournament. Matches were held in Antigua, Bridgetown in Barbados, Georgetown in Guyana, and Grenada.
Each team carried forward the result from the other team qualifying from its group in the group stage of the tournament, so the Super Eight was essentially an eight-team round robin competition. Two points were awarded for a win and one for a tie or a no result. If teams were tied on points, the team with the most wins was ranked ahead, and if this is also equal net run rate determined the ranking order.

Matches in Antigua and Guyana (27 March to 9 April)
27 March: Australia v West Indies
| Tuesday 27 March to Wednesday 28 March (scorecard) |
Australia 322/6 (50 overs) |
v | West Indies 219 all out (45.3 overs) |
Australia won by 103 runs[4] Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua and Barbuda Umpires: Aleem Dar (Pak) and Asad Rauf (Pak) Player of the match: M. L. Hayden (Aus) |
| M. L. Hayden 158 (143) D. J. Bravo 7–0–49–2 |
B. C. Lara 77 (83) G. D. McGrath 8–1–31–3 |
|||
|
|
||||
Australia were put in to bat by Brian Lara as the ball moved about and deviated off the seam in the early overs.[5] Daren Powell got the wicket of Adam Gilchrist with an inside edge, while Matthew Hayden could not score off his first 17 deliveries – then made 158 runs from the next 126 to make the highest innings for Australia in a World Cup match.[6] However, Ricky Ponting and Hayden scored at above six an over in their partnership, before Ponting was eventually run out. Hayden added 98 for the third wicket with Michael Clarke before Dwayne Bravo broke through, and Andrew Symonds and Michael Hussey could not provide more than 15 runs to the team cause. Hussey got out the total at 234 for five in the 41st over, but Hayden eventually led Australia to break loose in the last 10 overs, taking 99 from them despite a 20-minute break for rain. Shane Watson's 33 from 26 balls also helped push Australia to 322 for 6 after the full 50 overs. This was the sixth successive score above 300 for Australia, a new One-day International record.[6]
Drizzle and wet ground conditions delayed the start of West Indies' reply and the game was eventually abandoned to resume the following day. They lost three wickets in the first 20 overs, and though Brian Lara and Denesh Ramdin contributed fifties, they required 105 to win off 28 balls when Daren Powell was bowled by Shaun Tait. Earlier, Glenn McGrath had removed Chris Gayle, Marlon Samuels and Dwayne Bravo for single-figure scores, thus moving within one wicket of Wasim Akram's World Cup record.
This was the first international match at the new Sir Vivian Richards Stadium. The stadium was barely half-filled for the game,[7] causing criticism from notables such as West Indies' captain Brian Lara and commentator Mark Nicholas.
28 March: Sri Lanka v South Africa
| Wednesday 28 March (scorecard) |
Sri Lanka 209 all out (49.3 overs) |
v | South Africa 212/9 (48.2 overs) |
South Africa won by one wicket[8] Providence Stadium, Georgetown, Guyana Umpires: S. A. Bucknor (WI) and D. J. Harper (Aus) Player of the match: C. K. Langeveldt (SA) and S. L. Malinga (SL) |
| T. M. Dilshan 58 (76) C. K. Langeveldt 10–1–39–5 |
J. H. Kallis 86 (110) S. L. Malinga 9.2–0–54–4 |
|||
|
|
||||
Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to bat, and lost their first five wickets for 98, with Charl Langeveldt taking two in his first spell. Tillakaratne Dilshan and Russel Arnold built a sixth-wicket stand of 97 in nearly 20 overs, but Dilshan was caught off Makhaya Ntini's bowling, and then Charl Langeveldt took three wickets in five balls as Sri Lanka were bowled out in the final over for 209. In reply, Chaminda Vaas had AB de Villiers bowled in the first over, but Jacques Kallis added 95 with Graeme Smith and 65 with Herschelle Gibbs, leading South Africa to within four runs of victory with his 86. Then Sri Lanka's Lasith Malinga struck. He became the first bowler to take four wickets with four consecutive deliveries in international cricket, though South Africa managed a run off Vaas in the intermediate over. South Africa now needed three runs to win with one wicket in hand, and eleven deliveries went by before Robin Peterson got an outside edge to a Malinga ball, which went out of reach of slip and went fine for four.[9]
29 March: West Indies v New Zealand
| Thursday 29 March (scorecard) |
West Indies 177 all out (44.4 overs) |
v | New Zealand 179/3 (39.2 overs) |
New Zealand won by seven wickets[10] Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua and Barbuda Umpires: Asad Rauf (Pak) and R. E. Koertzen (SA) Player of the match: J. D. P. Oram (NZ) |
| C. H. Gayle 44 (56) J. D. P. Oram 8–2–23–3 |

| P. D. Collingwood 90 (82) W. B. Rankin 7–1–28–2 |
N. J. O'Brien 63 (88) A. Flintoff 8.1–1–43–4 |
|||
|
|
||||
England won the toss and batted first, but lost both openers to Boyd Rankin in six overs, before Ian Bell spent 74 balls making his 31. When Bell got out, the run rate was slightly above 4; in the final 28 overs it was in excess of 6, with Paul Collingwood making 90, Kevin Pietersen 48 and Andrew Flintoff 43. Kyle McCallan was the most economical bowler for Ireland, and also took the wicket of Pietersen.
Chasing 267 in reply, Niall O'Brien's third One-day International fifty and his second of the World Cup helped Ireland to a total of 139 for six in the 37th over, but despite faster than a run a ball scores from Trent Johnston and Andrew White Ireland fell 48 runs short as Andrew Flintoff took the final two wickets, though they exceeded their previous World Cup record total by seven runs.

Sri Lanka 303/5 (50 overs) |

S. Chanderpaul 76 (110) W. P. U. J. C. Vaas 8–1–19–2 |
|||
|
|
||||
The start of the match was delayed due to bad weather, but a full 50-over match was played, which resulted in West Indies' third defeat in four days. Sanath Jayasuriya and Mahela Jayawardene added 183 for the third wicket, before Tillakaratne Dilshan came in and took 39 off 22 deliveries as the final eleven overs yielded 84 runs. In reply, West Indies needed 170 off 94 when Ramnaresh Sarwan was stumped off Sanath Jayasuriya; they only got 56 of those, and were bowled out for 190, with four batsmen out in single figures.

|||
|
|

Sri Lanka batted first and made 235, bowled out off the last ball with a run out. England lost their openers for 0 and 10, but Ian Bell and Kevin Pietersen made a stand of 90 for the third wicket, and Paul Collingwood joined Pietersen to add a further 25 before Pietersen was caught and bowled by Muttiah Muralitharan. England then lost two more wickets for seven runs to Dilhara Fernando, and required 103 off 16.3 overs with four wickets in hand. However, Ravinder Bopara scored a half-century in his fourth One-Day International innings, as he and Paul Nixon took England within three runs of victory. However, Fernando returned for the last over, and bowled Bopara off the last ball.
