Defending champions Australia have already booked their place in t🧔he 2019 World Cup semi-finals while Sri Lanka, South Africa, West Indies, and Afghanistan cannot make it out of the 10-team round-robin phase.
Meanwhile, Pakistan, England, India, New Zealand, and🧜 Bangladesh are still 🉐looking for a place alongside Australia in the last four.
Teams r🅠eceive two points for a win and one point for a tie or no-result washout.
If two sides level on points at the end of the league stage, the one that has won mꦚore matches goes through.
If then also they remain level, the side with the higher net run-rate advances. In🦄 th🍌e unlikely event, if they still cannot be separated, then the result of their match against each other will be a tie-breaker.
Semi-finals qualification scenarios:
Pakistan – 9 points
Remaining pool match:
July 5: v Bangladesh
Pakistan needs to beat Bangladesh and hope England have already lost to New Zealand if theyꦺ are to qualify for the semi-finals.
England – 10 points
Remaining pool match:
July 3: v New Zealand
A w✃in over New Zealand would see the tournament hosts into t🅺he knockout phase.
B𒊎ut if they lose, England would be dependent on otherﷺ results.
If Pakistan fails to beat Bangladesh and Bangladesh fail to win both of their remaining matches – against India and Pakistan – the host nation would qualify.
India – 11 points
Remaining pool matches:
July 2: v Bangladesh
July 6: v Sri Lanka
India needs to win one of their two remaining games to be certain of reaching a third suc🃏cessive World Cup sem🍎i-final.
Even if India lose both of their matches, they should still advanc🦂e on net run-rate.
New Zealand – 11 points
Remaining pool match:
July 3: v England
Victory over England would send the 20♛15 losing finalists into the last four agaiꦐn.
Even if they are joined by either Pakistan or Bangladesh on 11 points, New Zealand’s likely superior net run-rate should still see them through.
Bangladesh – 7 points
Remaining pool matches:
July 2: v India
July 5: v Pakistan
Bangladesh needs to win both of their remaini♈ng matches and hope New Zealand beat England iᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚf they are to go through.
