India and new zealand will battle it out for a place in the final of the cricket world cup on tuesday at old trafford in manchester. India topped the final group table, having lost just once, whilst new zealand sneaked into the semi finals having lost their last three matches. But as both captains say, anything can happen on the day. Joe wilsons been looking ahead to the match id say the atmosphere amongst both teams at old trafford has been relaxed today. On the eve of the first cricket world cup semi final. The indian Training Session was at times jovial. Certainly optional. But the indian captain insists this tournament is about to reach another level of seriousness as finally we get to the knockout games. League stages, when you know that you just need a victory to qualify, then the team is a bit more relaxed and you can go out and try a few things but i think knockout games, you need to be very precise as at the same time being very intense. That balance. This is more similar to the toughest situations you will get in test cricket, where you have to be absolutely precise but your intent cant go down. Theres no mistaking the attention india always bring with them. When the new zealand captain came in to speak at his media conference, there were still around 20 tv cameras there mainly from indian broadcast media. That creates a sense of freedom and opportunity for the indian opponents, who whether india play the opponents automatically become the underdogs and thats a point i put to kane williamson. Theres truth in that, india are a very successful side with a Large Population and a large portion of cameras population and a large portion of cameras and thats great, it brings so cameras and thats great, it brings so much to the sport were fortunate to be part of. But it is a cricket match, you do try to simplify things as best you can as a team and each side will want to put each other under pressure, and we know when that happens it can be a real challenge so both sides will be looking to do that. Lets be clear, evenif looking to do that. Lets be clear, even if new zealands form has tailed off during the group stage, they are in the semis on merit. They have a talented and very experienced group of players. And if they are not underdogs for this semi final, well, that is a status new zealand have enjoyed for about forever.

But from me and the rest of the sport today team, goodbye. Hello. This time last year, we were on a run of five days with temperatures sitting 30 celsius or above somewhere in the uk. Great news if you dont like heat like that. There is nothing like that on the immediate horizon. High pressure being squeezed to the south, rain bearing weather fronts moving in, mostly across the northern half of the uk, average temperatures for most of us this week. Its a warmer start, though, in the morning compared with where weve been over recent mornings, but a lot of cloud around and some outbreaks of rain. This is what it looks like at 8am in the morning, with outbreaks of rain running eastwards across scotland. A few heavier bursts within this. Still some patchy rain for Northern Ireland and northern england. Its at least a damp start for some of us here. Some of this rain will fringe north wales, through the midlands and even push onto parts of east anglia but it is going to be lighter, more patchy than it is to the north. South of that, a lot of cloud around but there will be some brighter sunny spells to be had here. Lets take a look at how wimbledon is shaping up for tuesdays play, a rather uninspiring look at cloudy skies. A few brighter spells out there, maybe the slight chance of a shower but dry for a full days play once again. This is how tuesday goes. Scotland and england and Northern Ireland will see most of the rain at times, drier interludes but we could see an area of heavier rain running eastwards as we go on through the afternoon. Again south of that, it is mainly dry. Some sunshine, cornwall down to the channel islands, a few spots in the 20s, most of us 19s or low 20s. The next spell of rain could turn things quite wet at the end of the day in Northern Ireland and southern scotland and northern england, clears overnight. And into wednesday, another spell of rain into Northern Ireland and north west england and western scotland later in the night, and the nights are getting a little warmer. Its getting rather humid for many of us as we go through the week. For wednesday then, another spell of rain pushing east to start the day. Digging a little further south to parts of eastern england. Sunny spells follow, particularly to england and wales. A lot of cloud in england and scotland and a few more showers following on as we go through the day. Lets take a look at thursday, because we could well see some quite heavy, thundery downpours developing in parts of Northern Ireland, scotland and northern england. By no means everybody will see, them but where they do pop up, that could lead to some disruption in some spots. England and wales seeing a few showers moving from west to east as well, and still a few sunny spells as well. Going into the weekend, the showers slowly fade over the weekend. It turns drier, sunnier and a little warmer. Welcome to bbc news, im duncan golestani.
