^^^ The same is given in the Telegraph as well. Here:

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/cricket/2019/07/03/england-vs-new-zealand-cricket-world-cup-2019-live-score-latest/

The most probable semifinal lineup is as follows:

SF1: Australia vs New Zealand
SF2: England vs India

I don't think that Pakistan is capable of beating Bangladesh by 300+ runs. On the other hand, there is a real possibility that Bangladesh will pull off an upset.

Pakistan are officially out now of WC as NZ not only lost, their RR also is positive. The best 4 teams are now in the semis fixed or not fixed Cheesy

Excited for the last matches and hoping India wins their last one before the semis. I can see people bet on semis too without knowing the team?

Yes, we are changing with changing conditions.   Smiley At the start of match i was hoping for the England loss  so that there is no run rate headache when we play the match with Bangladesh. But since England made a brilliant start and now with NZ two wickets down, i am now looking for a England win with a big margin, maybe by 100 runs.


Even if NZ lose to ENG with a big margin, I doubt PAK will be able to qualify for the semi because-
1. It will not be easy to beat Bangladesh  Cheesy
2. NZ nrr is +0.57 & PAK nrr is -0.79, a difference of 1.22 almost, and the difference after this match will not be less than 0.50, I guess although I'm not sure how this is calculated, in the end, NZ nrr will be high.

Our slogan now, "We have been sunk, we will do the same to Pakistan as well  Grin Grin"

Kidding  Grin

Can anyone who is genius to calculate how much NZ will end up with run rate if they lost with 100 runs ?  

You may be kidding with your Slogan, but this is the reality and most of the public think in same lines.  I never understand this logic ?
Wouldn't it be better if we think in a way like, "Ok We have Sunk, but we will want another Asian team progress further" ?  

What's is the satisfactions for Bangladesh if NZ qualifies?  Wink

Pakistan is virtually out of world cup, officially they will after playing against Bangladesh, If Bangladesh play first in their match, than Pakistan won't have any chance to reach on semi final even they chase down the match in 1st ball.
If pakistan bat first, they have to win over 300 runs and that is almost impossible to win against Bangladesh.

Yes, that's a sad surprise.  But i have one more analysis to make here

NZ lost their last three matches and down in confidence and yet qualifies
PAK Won the last three matches and better in confidence and unable to qualify.

Pakistan is virtually out.

For Pakistan to qualify:
Beat Bangladesh by 311 runs after scoring 350
Beat Bangladesh by 316 runs after scoring 400
Beat Bangladesh by 321 runs after scoring 450
If Bangladesh opt to bat first on Friday, Pakistan stand eliminated even before a ball is bowled.



Now fight is in between Aussie and India for No 1 spot.

As of now Oz and India leading the table with 14 and 13 points respectively and they both have 1 match to go against the SA and Srilanka.

Possible scenario.

Oz will face kiwis in Manchester and India vs England is in the same ground (Birmingham) where England already beat India convincingly in the last encounter.

Alternative scenario

If South Africa wins against Australia in last playoff game, then its different ball game.

In Social Media, every cricket experts were saying that for winning the world cup you need to beat India : Smiley

6.17pm Handshakes all round ... and here's official word from S Rajesh, our statsguru-in-chief. Pakistan will need to beat Bangladesh by 316 runs at Lord's on Friday to oust New Zealand. "That is, if they score 400, they need to keep Bangladesh to 84 or less. The exact margin will change depending on scores." It's not over yet!


See the last words, "It's Not Over Yet" .  Lolzzz  Cheesy

Can anyone define what does it actually mean, I'm confused a little?
Quote
“A team’s net run rate is calculated by deducting from the average runs per over scored by that team throughout the competition, the average runs per over scored against that team throughout the competition.

“In the event of a team being all out in less than its full quota of overs, the calculation of its net run rate shall be based on the full quota of overs to which it would have been entitled and not on the number of overs in which the team was dismissed.

“Only those matches where results are achieved will count for the purpose of net run rate calculations. Where a match is abandoned, but a result is achieved under Duckworth/Lewis/Stern, for net run rate purposes Team 1 will be credited with Team 2’s Par Score on abandonment off the same number of overs faced by Team 2. Where a match is concluded with Duckworth/Lewis/Stern having been applied at an earlier point in the match, Team 1 will be credited with 1 run less than the final Target Score for Team 2 off the total number of overs allocated to Team 2 to reach the target.”

I don't know, maybe this is the same logic as of India vs Pakistan, Brazil vs Argentina. I don't know why I don't like Pakistan at all. I would never support Pakistan unless we are getting direct benefit like Pakistan wanted in ENG vs IND match  Cheesy

New Zealand has lost their sixth wicket and two run outs changed the game and i predicted it to be an close win for England but it looks like they will be trashing them in this match by the way things are going, i recently understood the pool strategy, earlier  i was simply giving narrow wins as i never thought there is a perk on exactly predicting that, now i will be more careful on selecting those from.

Good to see both openers out for cheap. NZ have to loss this match with a big margin so that Pakistan win against Bangladesh can make them through.
Fingers crossed.  Tongue

Are you changing loyalty with every match, every wicket, every ball now? Cheesy but good to see you guys willing to beat Bangladesh in next game, otherwise all I am seeing that all Pakistani relying on other teams instead of their team. Best of luck

Some of my Lahori friends were cursing me in TG from the heart when India lost the match against England.

Good to see England will qualify today and will be not left on If/Why/how on the other matches results. They deverse to be up in the top 4.


I agree they deserve to be in top 4. but fight is still on, kiwis not going down without a fight.

Clearly not a good start from Kiwis, they already lost 1 wicket. don't know what was Guptill thinking when umpire raised his finger. ball looked pretty high, they could risk with DRS, result Henry out.

Edit

Guptill gone as well

This gambling thing is not working with me. Lost my bet. They were able to hit only one six! LOL

Anyway, a good total even though I think we all expected England to score more than 350 runs. It's the middle and lower order failed England today. New Zealand is not in good shape to chase this much run unless Kane do something today.

Most safest gambling on the cricket matches in on the result of the match. If you gamble on how many sixes a team will hit, who will win toss, first innings score etc, they are all have more risk.

England are on cruise mode at the moment even though they lost a couple of quick wickets. If New Zealand manage to get Stokes and Morgan quickly, they could restrict them to 310 or lower.

If not, I am expecting England to post something close to 330 and I don't expect the current New Zealand batting lineup to get anywhere close to that mammoth total since it is filled with inconsistent players.

England middle order failed and i do not think now they could even think of 330+. I think they are well short of 50 runs here and if NZ managed to bat well, they could chase it. But they will have to bat really well because they do not have Williamsons in the team today.

Edit: Opps, Williamson has come out to bat. Someone told me in the morning that he might not play.

With Jason Roy back in the team Jonny Bairstow who was struggling with the bat with a couple of ducks in the tournament is back in form and both are giving the perfect opening partnership for England and they will be looking for a huge total above 340 runs and with the bowling unit England has and they already defended a total against India and if they could produce the same kind of bowling they could defend it against New Zealand too.
Having Roy with him, Bairstow do not feel pressure to score quick runs so he plays better. Both Roy and Bairstow is very close to their 50s and England really had a very good start.

By the way, finally I placed a bet. England total six over 6.5 but seems like the England team is not interested to score from over boundary :-P

One can count on Roy. I did not bet but I am predicting Roy to score 50 in this match. England don't want to risk their work cup missing and they have a flying start so far.
