After that disappointing end to India’s World Cup, we now move on to the semis. Two unbeaten in-form teams are taking on two teams that haven’t looked their best, but have managed to win at the right times to progress. England take on Sri Lanka today in what should be an enthralling clash. England’s batting unit looks in top shape - power hitters at the top (Lumb, Kieswetter, Pieterson), followed by Collingwood and Morgan, two batsmen who can consolidate as well as turn it on later in the innings.
