The semis are virtually a knock out game and a single mistake by any player could knock their team out. Let us take a look on each of the team which are the potential winner of the fifth edition of the ICC world T20.Sri Lanka: The finalist of the last edition will look on to cross the final hurdle this time around. But for it to happen they have the Caribbean challenge in front of them. The Sri Lankan team definitely have the armoury in their kitty to topple any opposition. The island nation have beaten teams like South Africa, Netherlands,and NewZealand and losing strangely enough in the hands of England.The team boasts of having strengths like a perfect team balance, having a long batting line up, a good combination of Pace and spin in the form of Malinga, Hearth and Mendis.The player to watch out from the team will be the veteran Mahela Jayawardene who boasts of an average of 44.6 at a strike rate of 131.4. Lasith Malinga will be the another Sri Lankan that will be keenly followed by his fans and all the cricket lovers around the world. India : The Champions of the inaugural T20 are looking to repeat their 2007 heroics. The men in Blue are the only team in the competition that have won all its league matches. But it cannot get complacent as the tournament is entering its knockout stages.The team on route to the semifinals have defeated arch rivals Pakistan in the opening match by 7 wickets ,present champion West Indies by seven wickets , Bangladesh by eight wickets and Australia by a margin of 73 runs.The teams strength has been its spin trio led by Amit Mishra. R ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja also seems to be peaking up their form at the right time.The man for team India has been the leg spin bowler Amit Mishra who is leading the wickets tally among all the Indian bowlers. He has made a full use of his opportunity.The good news for the Indian cricket fans is that Yuvraj Singh has shown signs that he is returning to his vintage form in the last league match against Australia. So the opposition teams should be aware of the man who has hit a record eight half centuries in the shortest format of the game at a strike rate of more than 148.South Africa: The most under achieved cricketing nation. The protease team has the potential of being the champions on many occasions. But their main drawback has been the ability to perform under pressure. But these time around they would like to shed off the chokers tag from their back.They have lost to the Sri Lankans at the first match but went on to win their next three matches out of which two were having a nail biting finish. They have the big hitters in the form of De villiers, Duminy, Albie Morkel.The team's susceptibility to spin can be a major hurdle for the team in the Sub Continental pitches as said by their batsman JP Duminy who has also expressed that the protease were finding ways to tackle the spin.
