Pakistan cricket team’s first match in Super-8 was canceled due to rain, after which Salman Ali Aga and team had to be satisfied with 1 point. Today they face England, who had defeated Sri Lanka in the first match of this round. If Pakistan team loses today, they will be able to reach maximum 3 points, then will the team be eliminated today itself? Understand the equation of Group-2.
Today the England vs Pakistan match in the T20 World Cup will be played at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Kandy. It was here that Pakistan’s first match was to be held, which was washed out in the rain. But today the chances of rain here are negligible, although there may be drizzle. So there is a question in the minds of the fans that if Pakistan loses today, they will be out of the race for the semi-finals?
If Pakistan loses, what will be the equation?
Even after losing today, Pakistan will not be out of the race for the semi-finals in the T20 World Cup. In this situation they will have 1 point after 2 matches. However, in this situation they will have to depend on other teams. They would like New Zealand to lose to Sri Lanka and England and Pakistan to beat Sri Lanka in their last match. Then Pakistan will have 3 points, Sri Lanka will have 2 and New Zealand will have zero points.
If New Zealand and Pakistan both beat Sri Lanka and England beat New Zealand. So New Zealand and Pakistan will have 3 points each, then the one whose net run rate is better will go ahead.
If New Zealand defeats both Sri Lanka and England, they will have 5 points and England will have 4 points. In this situation, Pakistan will be out of the race for the T20 World Cup semi-finals even before its last match.
