Five out of the 6 Group 2 groups in the T20 World Cup have a possibility of reaching the semi-finals.

India, South Africa, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe are all in contention ahead of the last round of matches on Sunday. Just the Netherlands stand no possibility of advancing.

Waiting for the 2 groups are New Zealand and England who went through from Group 1.

Who fulfills them from Group 2 will boil down to variety of video games won and even a group’s net rate (NRR).

Fixtures for Sunday

  • South Africa (5pts) v Netherlands (2pts)
  • Pakistan (4pts) v Bangladesh (4pts)
  • Zimbabwe (3pts) v India (6pts)

This is what each group requirement to do in order to remain on contention:

India

With 6 points from 4 video games, India sit at the top of the group. Development is not ensured.

To make sure development, India needs to beat Zimbabwe. If they lose they might still go through if the Netherlands pull off a shock win over South Africa or if Bangladesh handle to beat Pakistan and guarantee they do not enhance their NRR substantially.

South Africa

Second in the table as it stands are the Proteas with 5 points. Development to the semi-finals is basic for South Africa: They require to beat the Netherlands.

A single point from a deserted video game will not suffice, as 6 points will be matched by the winner of the Pakistan vs Bangladesh video game– which group will then have another win than South Africa, knocking them out.

Pakistan

With 4 points from 4 video games, Pakistan sit 3rd. They have actually kept the dream alive though and now their fate is no longer entirely in their hands. If India and South Africa both win, Pakistan will be gotten rid of.

To advance, not just should Pakistan beat Bangladesh however hope that South Africa either lose to the Netherlands– or have their video game deserted, or that India lose to Zimbabwe.

The case of not getting approved for semis, if it does take place will be simply down to the technique, no matter the conditions.

Bangladesh

Fourth in the group is Bangladesh, with equivalent indicate Pakistan. A bad run rate suggests that for them to try to surpass India on the last group video game day would need absolutely nothing brief of a cricketing wonder: Bangladesh should beat Pakistan, and Zimbabwe beat India, and the combined margin of triumph throughout the 2 video games goes beyond 150 runs.

The 2 underdog groups do not simply need to win, however need to definitely damage their favoured challengers in order for Bangladesh to stand a possibility at going through to the semi-finals.

Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe’s 3 points sees them sit second-from-bottom however there still is hope, on paper, a minimum of.

A win versus India would see Zimbabwe net 5 points from their group project. If South Africa lose versus the Netherlands, they will likewise have 5 points. And if Pakistan vs Bangladesh is deserted due to the weather condition, those groups will likewise have 5 points.

In that contrived circumstance, Zimbabwe would be level with those on points. Still, Zimbabwe’s NRR is so low that they would have to beat India by at least 50 runs and have the Netherlands beat South Africa by at least 50 runs in order to improve their NRR enough to make it through.

There is still a possibility, however do not wager your home on it.

The Netherlands

The Dutch have actually had a torrid time at this World Cup Super 12, with just a win over Zimbabwe to compose house about.

That stated, they might still play a big function in this group to disturb the apple cart: If they can manage a win versus South Africa on Sunday, it will shock the entire competition they are leaving.
