Bangladesh won by 62 runs County Ground, Northampton, England Umpires: Doug Cowie (NZ) and Darrell Hair (Aus) Player of the match: Khaled Mahmud (Ban)
Super Six
Teams who qualified for the Super Six stage only played against the teams from the other group; results against the other teams from the same group were carried forward to this stage. As a result Pakistan carried forward 4 points from the group stage, with their wins against Australia and New Zealand. Results against the non-qualifying teams were therefore discarded at this point.
Pakistan won by 9 wickets Old Trafford, Manchester, England Umpires: Darrell Hair (Aus) and Peter Willey (Eng) Player of the match: Shoaib Akhtar (Pak)
Shahid Afridi, who was named man of the match, set a new record of becoming the first player in World Cup matches to take four or more wickets in three consecutive games.
The loss was Australia's first loss in a World Cup match since 23 May 1999, when Pakistan defeated Australia at Headingley in the group stage of the 1999 World Cup. This ended a 34-match unbeaten streak (including 32 wins, a tie and a no-result).
Wahab Riaz (Pak) was fined 50% of his match fee, and Shane Watson (Aus) was fined 15% of his match fee, after a verbal encounter at the end of the 33rd over.
