At Cape Town, September 22, 2007. Pakistan won by six wickets. Toss: New Zealand.

New Zealand again fell at the semi-final hurdle, resolute and disciplined enough to go further than more talented teams, but lacking the class - especially in batting - to go all the way. "We just can't put a decent performance together, except Craig McMillan," said Vettori. But New Zealand's captain made the questionable decision to send in Fulton at No. 4, after a decent start, instead of McMillan; and Fulton's inability to get the ball off the square forced Styris, New Zealand's classiest batsman, to hit out too soon. Styris was caught at deep cover off Umar Gul, who mixed length-balls with yorkers and slower balls in a match-winning spell. Pakistan's chase wobbled only when Vettori brought on his slower bowlers to use an old pitch. Imran Nazir, after a thigh strain, was allowed a runner but was agile enough to hit five sixes.

Man of the Match: Umar Gul. Attendance: 9,576.

Transcript
00:00Umpire Harper says play, and we have the first delivery of this first semi-final.
00:20Here's an example of New Zealand having to get used to this surface.
00:23They've played all their cricket in Johannesburg and Durban.
00:30Outside again, gets past midwicket, square legs in the deep, excellent.
00:34First boundary for New Zealand, good timing, good placement.
00:37Just used the pace of the bowler, just struck it where he wanted to.
00:43Just in front of that side of midwicket.
00:47Gets the width, this time third man is fine.
00:50Back-to-back boundaries for New Zealand, 15 without loss.
00:55He's got that.
00:56That is big, that's in the brewery.
01:02Really sweet there.
01:03Got low, cleared that front hip, and look at the bottom hand.
01:10Change of ball.
01:13Doesn't make much difference.
01:14Possibly just a four, yep, a four.
01:16That is a very neat piece of work, and on the boundary as well, Shahid Afridi.
01:30Sent back, and I think he's got back.
01:33Torfell is going to go upstairs though.
01:37Needed a direct hit.
01:40Runs of being scored.
01:42Locked down again, no surprises there.
01:44Throwing when they don't need to.
01:46Gone.
01:48Caught and bowled by Foward Allum.
01:51He's slower through there, there's a lack of pace on the ball.
01:54The batsmen have to make the pace, generate the pace.
01:58And that's a smart piece of bowling, and smart catching.
02:03It's a good thing he's left-handed.
02:08And this has gone all the way.
02:10That is six.
02:11Grispin.
02:15That's a big shout, and that could be given, because yes, it looks straight.
02:19Even with just a quick look.
02:21Here from the commentary box.
02:24Short.
02:26And missed it.
02:27Should have hit it.
02:29Going on to hit off standard.
02:30Looked out, just when you...
02:34Well, the big handle had to come, but it's gone to Parrish.
02:38And Styrus.
02:39Perishes for the cause.
02:42That's the third New Zealand wicket gone.
02:44Forsyth and me to come into the equation.
02:47High ball.
02:48Took his time.
02:49Got underneath it.
02:50Safe as a house.
02:55Strike to cover.
02:56It's another catch.
02:57The captain takes it.
02:59And New Zealand wickets are falling.
03:04That'll go.
03:05That's going to beat third man.
03:07Comfortably.
03:10Straight over the bowler's head.
03:15That's as good as it gets.
03:19Made it look extremely easy down the track.
03:21Full swing of the bat.
03:22And away it went.
03:26Absolutely glorious from him.
03:27Going back for a second.
03:28He's done it again, but has he got enough distance?
03:41I don't think he has.
03:42Don't think he has.
03:43He hasn't.
03:44He's gone.
03:46That's a big blow again for Pakistan.
03:48He's done.
03:52Edged and gone.
03:53A good catch from Cameron Akmuller.
03:54Great over from Umar Gul.
03:57Just the two runs and the wicket from it.
04:01He skips on to you.
04:02Strong ball up.
04:05That's a good catch.
04:06Not on Afridi's arm now.
04:13There's trouble.
04:14There's all sorts of trouble.
04:15Chaos.
04:19One batsman wanted to go for the second.
04:21Daniel Vittori said no.
04:24Vittori sacrifices himself.
04:26Big swing to the leg side.
04:32Goes all the way for six.
04:38Takes the single.
04:41Taylor wants two.
04:42Could be trouble.
04:43The running is all over the place.
04:47Did the right thing.
04:48Taylor wanted to get back on strike.
04:50Bond this time sacrifices himself.
04:51Down the ground.
04:55Hit hard.
04:56Hit for four.
04:57That's a good start from Taylor.
04:58That's why he wanted to get back on strike.
05:02Swung away.
05:03That's towards the short boundary.
05:04That's a big six.
05:06To the grassy bank.
05:07A good start to the over from New Zealand.
05:09Four.
05:10Then six.
05:14But he gets away for four.
05:16Great placement.
05:18Fourteen of the first three deliveries.
05:22Low full toss.
05:23Straight up in the air.
05:24Cameron Akmal says mine.
05:25Gets under it.
05:26Drops the catch.
05:30Run signalled.
05:32Chaos in the last few overs at Newlands.
05:36The chance.
05:37New Zealand get 143.
05:40Disappointing card for New Zealand.
05:41So many of their top order got starts.
05:43Vincent McCullum, Styrus, Fulton.
05:46Ross Taylor rescued the innings somewhat.
05:48143 for eight.
05:50Wide and driven away.
05:53What a start.
05:55That leaves the nerves in the dugout.
05:57First ball four.
05:59His little innings against Australia came in handy.
06:02And he showed a lot of class and promise.
06:04And this is indeed a promising start.
06:06Well it could be close with a direct hit.
06:16Edged between slip and wicketkeeper.
06:19Torrey can't believe it.
06:20And he'll make you pay.
06:21A real loose half volley put away for four.
06:35Cut again.
06:36Man in the gully gets past him.
06:37Four more.
06:38Short and wide.
06:39You can't bowl short and wide on this surface.
06:40It's got to be fuller.
06:41It's got to be straighter.
06:42Pakistan off to a flyer.
06:43Goes the other way.
06:44Takes the glove.
06:45Goes away for four.
06:46Run signalled.
06:47Short pulled away.
06:48All the way for six.
06:49What a shot that is.
06:50Clean as a whistle.
06:51And this has gone for another half a dozen here at Ulan's.
07:05all the way for six what a shot that is clean as a whistle and this has gone for
07:15another half a dozen here at Newlands 50 up with then six slower ball across the
07:23seam but the important thing with a technique they kept the bat online went
07:28through with the shot dancing shoes on and this is another big one
07:39I'm the April Pakistan taking this so seriously now semi-final stage that they
