Pak bowl BD out for zero

BD bowl wide first ball

Pak win with RR of infinity (1 from zero balls)

 

You guys need to score 50 runs in 1 ball to overcome NZ's NRR, assuming Toygers goes all out for 0

Won't work if 3 or more teams have the same number of points.

 

PS: And not just for the 4th spot, but other spots too. Let's say Aus, Ind and Eng had ended with 13 points and Aus beat Eng, Eng beat Ind, Ind beat Aus. Or one of the matches among these teams rained off. Who would be #1, #2, #3? Unnecessarily complicated.

 

Like I said H2H should take precedence.

 

If you encounter a situation like this than NRR shoulld be considered.

 

In most soccer leagues its the same H2H first then goal difference.

So let's say west indies beat Pakistan in first game. Pakistan after playing 8 games has one more game left to tie with windies on points. But what is the point? They already lost so last match becomes dead rubber. At least with NRR teams still have some chance to do something throughout the tournament to increase it except in extreme cases. With head to head your fate is sealed after one match
