Top 5 Controversies During the India vs Pakistan match, a fan was hit with a bat
t20 World Cup The league stage has a total of 20 teams divided into four groups of 5 each. The top 2 teams from each group will advance to the next round i.e. Super 8. India and Pakistan are in Group-A.
Team India has won their first match against Ireland, while today India will face Pakistan in their second match. If Team India wins this match as well, their ticket to the Super-8 will be almost confirmed as after this India have to play two more matches against USA and Canada. A win in one of these matches will qualify India for the Super-8.
Currently, USA is in the top-2 with India in the points table of Group-A, USA has won its first two matches and is above India in the first place. They will have to perform well in the next two matches to qualify for the Super-8. If India manage to defeat Pakistan today, America will have to win only one of the remaining two matches. America’s remaining matches are against India and Ireland.
As for Pakistan, Babar Azam’s team is fourth in the points table after facing an upset against USA. If they have to face a defeat against India today, Pakistan’s fate will no longer be in their hands.
In fact, after this, Pakistan have two more matches to play against Canada and Ireland. If Pakistan wins both these matches, it can only reach maximum 4 points. In such a situation, they will have to pray for USA to lose the next two matches, and also pay attention to the net run rate. The good thing for Pakistan is that the loss to the USA in the Super Over has not had a negative impact on their net run rate. In such a situation, he can increase it against Canada and Ireland.
If Pakistan succeeds in defeating India today, the doors of Super-8 will be completely open for them. However, the T20 World Cup stats are not in Pakistan’s favour. 7 matches have been played between India and Pakistan in T20 World Cup in which India has won 6 times. In such a situation, today’s war is not easy for Pakistan.
