24-Mar-2011•Brydon Coverdale and Nagraj Gollapudi at Motera

In the nets with Gary

On one of his last training sessions with the team he has overseen for three years, India's coach was, as ever, focused, attentive to the details and a glutton for hard work

24-Mar-2011•Nagraj Gollapudi

Time for India's batting to 'bring it'

Going by the numbers alone, India's batting line-up looks in great form; but three late-order collapses tell the story of a side who need their batsmen to fire as a unit if they are to progress to the semi-finals

23-Mar-2011•Sharda Ugra in Ahmedabad

West Indies succumb to spin

Eight of their ten wickets went to the spinners, not because there was excessive turn, but because the batsmen didn't know how to play them

23-Mar-2011•Firdose Moonda at Shere Bangla stadium

Haddin aims for solid foundations

Brad Haddin is Australia's leading run scorer in the World Cup, and is confident that he is doing his job

23-Mar-2011•Brydon Coverdale in Ahmedabad

Hafeez lives up to promise

After eight years of unconverted cameos and constant role switching, Mohammad Hafeez's talent and cricketing brain are finally leading to vital performances

Mini-battles to light up Motera

There will be several smaller battles to add even greater spark to what is already an enthralling quarter-final clash between India and Australia in Ahmedabad

23-Mar-2011•Nagraj Gollapudi in Ahmedabad

'You've got to have skills but you also need attitude'

Allan Donald, New Zealand's new bowling coach, is on a mission to get his charges thinking right before their big game against his old team

23-Mar-2011•Interview by Nagraj Gollapudi

Immense Zaheer continues his Australian opera

Zaheer Khan is now a very different bowler to the one who ran in eight years ago in a World Cup final and was overwhelmed by the occasion. His skills are controlled by containment in the mind of what precisely has to be done

22-Mar-2011•Sharda Ugra in Ahmedabad

West Indies batsmen must match the bowlers

Although Pakistan are perceived as having one of the strongest bowling attacks of the tournament, West Indies have taken exactly the same number of wickets - 53

22-Mar-2011•Firdose Moonda in Mirpur

Battle of two inconsistent batting line-ups

The batting line-ups of both teams have been inconsistent, but Pakistan's better bowling attack gives them the edge

DRS, batting Powerplays, and starting with spin

A few key numbers from the first phase of World Cup 2011

22-Mar-2011•S Rajesh

Pakistan's bowling variety allows extra batsman

With the kind of choice he has, each bowling change Shahid Afridi makes has ensured that batsmen are unable to fall into the kind of rhythm they thrive on. On the pitches of the subcontinent, that is often a winning ploy

22-Mar-2011•Osman Samiuddin in Mirpur

Promising but patchy

The promise the Dutch showed in their opening match against England is a distant memory as they exited the tournament with not a single win to their name
