Sad to see the only associate team being represented in the word cup going home without a win. They were certainly the poorest team here.
Sri Lanka and South Africa were the disappointment of this world cup. Their team is ruined.
West Indies and Pakistan were too unpredictable, Mohammad Amir shined through the tournament.
Bangladesh worked hard on every match and if they would have some more legendary players like Shakib they'll surely be one of the strongest team.
Let's farewell these six teams today.

I am very surprised that everyone consider this as a possible scenario worth debating on. Forget about Bangladesh. I really doubt whether Pakistan will be able to win by this much against the China national team. Out of the 4,000 plus ODI matches played till now, the greatest margin of victory belongs to New Zealand (who defeated Ireland by a massive 290 run margin in 2008).
If there is only one possible scenario for Pakistan to get to the next round and if passionate fans of the team want to have an imaginary hope, let them have those, everyone knows it is an impossible task for any team in this tournament even if England is in this situation they will not qualify, lets see whether Pakistan who is very unpredictable can win against Bangladesh let alone the margin of victory .Bottom 2 sides on the table are playing today i.e WI vs Afghanistan. WI after winning deiced to bat and Gayle got out early and WI are now 42/1 in 8.2 overs. Both teams are playing for pride and Afghanistan would be looking to win the last match as they are yet to open their account of score.
The bottom of the table pride 
, Afghanistan will not win the match if West Indies post a huge total on the board as they do not have any legit batsmen who is consistent enough to play an incredible innings. 
NZ is in the semi finals irrespective if Pakistan win the match as if they have to enter the Semis spot they will have to beat Bangladesh by 308 runs which is like way too much. So now mostly it will be the ranking of the four qualified teams is yet to be decided.

England won the match and now it's pretty much over for Pakistan as it's almost impossible to attain these margins against Bangladesh:
With England back in form we have the semi final list, Australia, India, England and New Zealand and with one more match to fully understand which team will be facing each other in the semi final we have to wait for the match between India v Sri Lanka and Australia v South Africa.By the way things are going we might see India and Australia in the finals.
We have to wait and see how far India will prove themselves in the coming matches.
The middle order crisis of India should be sorted if they are planning to win the world cup and if their top three fails then India will struggle to put runs on the board as i do not expect Rohit Sharma to score centuries every time. 
England won the match and now it's pretty much over for Pakistan as it's almost impossible to attain these margins against Bangladesh:
It is impossible to attain these margins against any team in the world. The current record is 290 runs.
As of now, we know which are the teams who will play in the semi-finals. But the fixtures are still not finalized. If South Africa beats Australia, then India can finish at the no.1 position (provided that they beat Sri Lanka) and may face New Zealand for the first semi final. If there are no upsets, then Australia will finish at no.1 and may face New Zealand. England and New Zealand have no more matches remaining and therefore the no.3 and no.4 positions in the table are not going to change.
That would be the probable case. Australia beating Sri Lanka and playing with New Zealand in the semis.
Australia always has been a better team when playing with New Zealand and they'd easily win the match to go to the finals.
And on India vs England, England is in a better mood and they have defeated India just a few days ago and they'll easily repeat that.
How confidently you said that England will repeat again Against India so easily? Yes, England is now very stronger mood and Can win the match again. But it will not so easy I think. Because the opponent is India. India also try their best to win the match for going Final.
England batting lineup is very strong but at the same time we shouldn't consider India as a low-level team, but in a league match, England has already won the match against India. We have to wait and see how far India will prove themselves in the coming matches.
NZ is in the semi finals irrespective if Pakistan win the match as if they have to enter the Semis spot they will have to beat Bangladesh by 308 runs which is like way too much. So now mostly it will be the ranking of the four qualified teams is yet to be decided.
Well, the race for Bangladeshi Tigers is over. Now the race is between Pakistan & England only, and tomorrow's match will decide the winner.
England need to lose in the match against New Zealand otherwise there is no chance for Pakistan - What do you think guys New Zealand can defeat England?
It will be a nail-biting match tomorrow. Hope to see a good match, not a fixed one.
England won! 🏴 Can Pakistanstill make it? HmmmmEngland need to lose in the match against New Zealand otherwise there is no chance for Pakistan - What do you think guys New Zealand can defeat England?

Even if they win against Bangladesh, they need to achieve a high NRR to down NZ. I haven't done any calculation but Raza has posted a possible score.
Anyway, my prediction for sf is confirmed and I won against Raza
But now I want to spell some magic to Aussies and Indians so that they can't win the cup
-- Supporting England & New Zealand from now -- Good Luck

Whatever people may say but India intentionally didn't put all their effort against the match with England last time. As they knew they are surely going to the semis and most possibly meet with England if they lost to it. It doesn't mean India would easily win in the semis but as India has tested both batting and bowling of England, they'd be better prepared this time.

England won! 🏴 Can Pakistan still make it? Hmmmm
Don't worry about the calculations for Pakistan as I believe that Bangladesh will win the match anyway and end their World Cup campaign with a win and overall somewhat of a success as they can finish 5th which most wouldn't expect them to do when the World Cup started as most had SA, Pakistan and WI up there so if Bangladesh can win it would be a successful World Cup campaign and something they can work towards in the coming years to go one better and make the finals.

Anyhow England has made its position confirmed for the semi finals. The entire game changer is the previous match against India. If the match was played perfectly the next match between Pakistan and Bangladesh would have been very interesting as Pakistan need to win to make its way to Semi Finals.

With England Striking early, this could be the end of any hope for Pakistan to reach the semi finals. Undoubtedly England is a better team than Pakistan and they deserves this spot.
With every team losing at least one game and interesting win loss combinations, semi finals are going to be equally exciting this time.

NZ played the worst cricket in this WC in this match. They lost the match by 119 runs and now this gives chance to Pakistan to enter the semis but they have to beat Bangladesh by very big margin and this may be little impossible but never know as things are changing in this WC.
NZ is through the semi-finals. Pakistan has no realistic chance of qualifying now. The difference between the NRR is too large (-0.966) to be compensated in one match. That said, I don't know what happened with New Zealand. During the initial phases, they were dominating the points table. Their sudden disintegration is a bit worrying.
Looks like Aus is playing with NZ and looking at NZ's performance in these recent matches, Aus will be the first finalist. I am scared for India as they just lost with Eng and they will face them once again.
