South Africa will meet Pakistan in the final, but both will also play in the tournament proper next year.

"We trained so hard, and for so long for this, in order to try to go to the World Cup in Australia, but it's not going to be. But we'll be here again in four years, looking for a place in the World Cup, and we expect to make it next time."
Pakistan beat the Netherlands by 98 runs in the second semi-final after bowling them out for just 68.
Australia, England, India, New Zealand, Sri Lanka and the West Indies automatically qualified for the World Cup, which will be played in New South Wales in March 2009.
Ireland's men took part in their 2007 World Cup in the West Indies and achieved unexpected success, beating Pakistan and drawing against Zimbabwe. This performance has given Cricket in Ireland a great boost, which also inspires the Irish women team.
