Qualification scenario in Group C of T20 World Cup 2026
Speaking of the qualification scenario after the 25th match of the T20 World Cup, the fight for second spot remains between England, Scotland, and Italy. England, who have played 3 matches and will play Italy on February 16, require only one win to confirm their spot, as they sit in second place with two wins and one defeat.
However, Scotland and Italy’s qualification into the Super Eight remains doubtful; the Scottish men also require a solitary win. With only one game remaining and England in second place, their chances look bleak. On the other hand, Italy, who are placed fourth in the Group C standings, have two games left and have so far won one and lost one game.
