Pakistan’s tough road
They have to go past New Zealand’s net run rate to make this happen. However, if Salman Ali Agha’s team faces defeat against Sri Lanka on Saturday, New Zealand will make it to the top four from Group 2. They have three points, and their positive net run rate will help them.
However, Suryakumar Yadav’s team has one big worry before the Kolkata game, and that is the sixth bowler. For the last three matches, Shivam Dube has been hit all over the park by the rival teams. With West Indies’ aggressive batting, India can’t risk giving the all-rounder another chance.
West Indies need miracle
The West Indies suffered a heavy loss to South Africa. Now, they have to beat India to make it to the top four. If India beats West Indies at Eden Gardens on March 1, the defending champions will go through to the semis no matter the margin.
How an India vs Pakistan clash could happen
