World cup almost over for India

[Zero_Unit]

Yes, it is how many games BD and Pak win would matter more 

But how knows, both of them could even win enough to qualify from G2 

 

Hey man, gotta support your neighbors when your behind is on the line 

[Zero_Unit]

no need hope AUS AND NZ REKT them..

we ll win over AUS and go on with style

 

If both Aus and NZ is rekt'ing them then that would mean we go out in style ... Don't forget the RR braa!

That would mean Aus, Ind and NZ would have 3 wins each

Already posted a scenario 1 hr ago ..... Some thing similar (3 teams with equal wins) happened in WT20 in 2012 .... And that was Group 2 too 

 

Group 2[edit]

Team[19]	Pld	W	L	NR	NRR	Pts
Australia	3	2	1	0	+0.464	4
Pakistan	3	2	1	0	+0.272	4
India	3	2	1	0	-0.274	4
South Africa	3	0	3	0	-0.421	0

 

PS in that tourney, it was a bad loss to Aus that did Ind: 

16th Match, Group 2: Australia v India at Colombo (RPS) - Sep 28, 2012

India 140/7 (20/20 ov); Australia 141/1 (14.5/20 ov)

If NZ loses to Australia and say Pakistan and defeats Bangladesh ...then they would have only 2 wins.

If Aus loses to us and wins  the rest then they would have 3 wins.

If Pakistan defeats Bangladesh  and NZ and loses to Aus and us then they have only 2 wins.  If BD defeats them then they will have only 1 win.

BD either loses all or defeats Pak.

We have to win all 3 games left.

isn't that a possibility ?

If BD defeats NZ and Pak...even then it is ok.

I expect Pak to beat Bangladesh tomorrow. But not too sure about Aus beating them.

No worries. Bang Bros will defeat their bunnies NZ so this loss will get compromised. They might trip Aus too.

From tomorrow, we will be watching the Group 2 games closely. I hope whichever team loses in the day game tomorrow loses by a big margin.

There must be one other dominant team who wins all the games except against us.

That's a possibility too. Bottom line is that one or two of the teams would have to win but not win too many

Exactly.

I hope we have BD and Pakistan for that.

India was supposed to qualify when a miracle big win of Pak against Aus and India not able to Secure big win against SA changed the whole story

I remember that day. Pakistan had almost qualified and put pressure on India to win by 16 overs. Unfortunately, we batted first in that game after losing the toss and that changed everything. As I said, that was a forgettable World Cup.

[bowl_out]

With NZ taking a good lead on NRR, our best case scenario would be to win all remaining matches (obviously),  with one large-margin win preferably against Australia..

If we can peg back Aus on NRR, we can get back to NRR neutral and Aus would be under pressure to get one big win to neutralize their loss to us..

Also remember in first game of Pakistan , a down and out Pakistan struggling at 76/7 in 14.3 chasing 134 vs SA , when UMar Gul played innings of lifetime by making 32 in 17  along with Umar Akmal , that result too gone very much against India

True. I liked the fact that we still went on to win the final game which turned out to be inconsequential though. It spoke volumes about the team's tenacity. I remember when on the giant screen in Premadasa stadium it read "India are eliminated" once SA crossed the cutoff square for India to restrict. Very sad evening that.

Lets hope that NZ run riot in this WC by winning all their matches and other teams play so so cricket

England beat NZ in a warm up game few days back in a turning Eden Gardens wicket. This WT20 is really a roller coaster ride with anybody capable of beating anyone on the day.

Without the benefit of hindsight 

• 15th - NZ vs Ind - NZ (result out)
• 16th - BD vs Pak at Kol on Mar 16th - BD can pull this one 
• 17th - Aus vs NZ at D'shala - NZ might just do it esp with its bowling attack at D'shala
• 19th -  Ind vs Pak at Kol - Ind
• 21st - Aus vs BD at B'lore - Aus 
• 22rd - NZ vs Pak at C'garh- 50/50 (On paper NZ, but Pak tends to lift its game vs NZ) 
• 23rd - Ind vs BD at B'lore  - Ind
• 25th - Aus vs Pak at C'garh - Aus
• 26th - BD vs NZ at Kol - 50/50 (Kol pitch?)
• 27th - Ind vs Aus at C'garh - 50/50

 

Team - Played - Won (or Likely to win) - 50/50 - Lost (or Likely to lose)

• NZ  - 4 - 2 - 2 - 0
• Aus - 4 - 2 - 1 - 1
• Ind - 4 - 2 - 1 - 1
• BD -  4 - 1 - 1 - 2
• Pak - 4 - 0 - 1 - 3

Based on the above^, as long as NZ wins most of its games, Ind vs Aus could be like a QF
