A LOI World Cup semi final without a subcontinent team?

[zen]

After 1975, have we ever had a LOI World Cup (ODIs + T20s) semi final without a subcontinent team?

 

In 2026 T20 World Cup, which subcontinent team(s) has (have) the best chance of making it to the knockouts?

Yeah, will edit.

Increasingly sub continent teams ( ignore India ) success seems to be directly proportional to their populations avg height w.r.t white counterparts

SL appears to be on its way to become the first of the three subcontinent teams in Super 8 to officially crash out ... thanks to its brainless and spineless performance. 

 

Congrats to SL.

Don’t mind all sc teams crashing. Will give the international feel to the tournament. Wish Zim had qualified though. Their fans seem to

bring a lot of flavor.

Looks more and more like it. SA and WI are the best teams from our group.

 

SL is out.

Pak is all but out, unless, they have a massive win against SL or NZ has a massive loss against Eng.

[maniac]

Just realized Eng (Europe) SA (Africa) Nzl (Australia) WI (America), we will have 4 teams in semis across 4 continents as well .

 

with Asia (South Asia @Chaos  ) missing out.

India is going into semis, don’t write them off yet. We can beat both Zimbabwe and West Indies (with big margins) if we go in with the right combination.

Was that a pun for right hand batters?

Big loss for ICC. This is a format you have to be switched on right through.

India isn't impressive in this edition, but India is still far better a team than Pak.

 

SL seems to be the worst of the lot. No batting at all.

 

India will, however, still sneak into the semis.

There was a time from 1996 to 2016 when sl pak n india had a decent chance of making it to the finals.

 

Sl had their golden gen. Pak had wasim etc. India had tendulkar etc.
