Now the question is arising that how many matches will the teams win in Super-8 and get a place in the semi-finals? So let us understand the entire equation from Super-8 to reaching the semi-finals.
Equation of semi-finals of Super-8
See, if a team wins all three matches of Super-8, then its reaching the semi-finals will be absolutely confirmed.
At the same time, teams can get semi-final tickets by winning two out of three matches, but in this case the net run rate of the team will be very important. Apart from this, we will also have to depend on the results of other teams.
If a team wins only one match in the Super-8, it will be eliminated from the race for the semi-finals.

In Super-8, the top-2 teams of both the groups will qualify for the semi-finals. Now it will be interesting to see which teams get a place in the semi-finals. Let us tell you that the first semi-final will be played on 04 March and the second on 05 March.
