Continuing our series with the adland predictions, all bets are on Ireland and Sri Lanka to take home the two points. Here is what these folks have to say:
Anant Rangaswami
Ireland vs Netherlands
It will be a close match, with Ireland winning this encounter.
Sri Lanka vs New Zealand
Again a close match. Sri Lankans will get the two points.
Prashant Singh
Ireland vs Netherlands
Ireland - best of the minnows, a team to watch out for in the future.
Sri Lanka vs New Zealand
Sri Lanka is my pick. The middle order is a worry though for them, but the inexperienced NZ pace attack will find it tough on a flat wicket. Malinga will be a key factor.
Hiren Pandit
Ireland vs Netherlands
Ireland, as they have played great cricket through the tournament.
Sri Lanka vs New Zealand
Sri Lanka. They are in good nick and NZ is affected by injuries. Heat will also play a role.
