Yes, we know how the tables work, thank you The semifinalists were known, but the actual matchups, as in who meets who in the semifinals were only confirmed after the India match, hence my message, because bookmakers could not know what the odds would be until they knew which team was facing which team.

Now the odds are all out anyway India is favorite to win, followed by Pakistan. As things should be

It will be very difficult to predict the upcoming semi-final matches. Because there is no opportunity to ignore anyone. There is uncertainty between New Zealand and Pakistan, just as there is uncertainty between India and England as well. So there is nothing to say without seeing the actual condition of the playground. Both England and New Zealand can claim to win the World Cup.

I think India and Pakistan will play the world cup final and India will win.
This will bring so much revenue to ICC because they are aware of crazy Pakistan and Indian fan following. I visited pakistan a few years ago and there was a match b/w India and Pakistan - I was amazed to see the road were empty - by the time Pakistan started loosing the match - people came out for their routine work.

My social media feeds are full of the cricket meme. Let's see if Pakistan win the world cup - Imran Khan made it happen in 92 let's see if Babar Azam does that again and builds another hosp like IK did and join the politics and become PM. IK has great personality - Babar Azam is nothing infront of IK

The odds look interesting! Pakistan is a unpredictable team and anything can happen when they play against Newzealand. On paper England is a better team with good depth in batting and they also have one of the fastest bowler in this T20WC. They can beat India in the semifinals. If India bats first on that day then this match might tilt towards the Indian side.

I think New Zealand and England are quite good teams. They have the ability to beat any team. One of these two teams can definitely play in the final. But it will be more exciting if India and Pakistan play the final. But here must perform well and then go to that position. Spectators have nothing to do anything .

Currently sportsbet.io odds

New Zealand @1.78 VS Pakistan @2.04

India @ 1.83 Vs England @1.98

These two teams explore the emotions too. Many are those who just try to suicide on loosing. And gamblers also gamble much money on these two teams.

I am also hoping that these two teams will play the final. And both will play very well and don't say anything now. Who will win?

India vs Pakistan is different game all together. It is a battle of nerves and pressure. Both team have the potential to win the cup. India has got the best batting depth and Pakistan has got the best bowlers. Yesterday's match between Pakistan & Bangladesh shows that Shaheen Afridi is back to his best. I am hoping these two teams play the finals.

We know that if India vs Pakistan is played in the world cup then we will see a very interesting game. But we know that both these teams have good bowling and batting. So it is not possible to predict which team will win. I have seen many games before.  I have seen strong trims losing to normal trims. So it is very difficult to predict which team will win this type of game.

I believe the same - India and Pakistan will reach the final but that is for sure that India will win the world cup
the wrong decision of the umpire is still under discussion on our local sport channel and everyone is for sure that India is going to the final and maybe win the match

After having some extraordinary fun now we are heading for semifinal with for me the weakest side is Pakistan and strongest side is India, but any prediction is going to be wrong because this format is full of upsets and surprise results as we already have in this early round 3 biggest upsets and defending champion and host country out of the race early another biggest upsets.

How things could be turned nothing is predictable because as we have Pakistan in last four now any team can win this trophy but for me still India and New Zealand are the most favourite teams with their batting and good bowling but after reading few above posts I am feeling this is going to be entertaining end of this cup on next Sunday.

It was an impossible aspect to believe that Netherlands would defeat South Africa but once that happened then it was a matter of time Pakistan defeating Bangladesh would serve their purpose of moving to the next round.

New Zealand is a tough team to defeat and if Pakistan are able to defeat them then we might see them in the final and India will be facing England who is another challenge in this format. Anyone can win on their given day.

India's semifinal berth was confirmed as soon as South Africa lost to Netherlands. India VS Zimbabwe was never a win win situation for India. They were the number one ranked side after South Africa lost in their group. They became second after Pakistan defeated Bangladesh. If India has lost today to Zimbabwe they would have still qualified.

By the way for few hours Pakistan was the top team in group 2. I am sure almost every Pakistani fan never thought that their team would have qualified for the semifinals in this world cup. I am sure this time the finals would be played between Indian and Pakistan and every cricket fan would enjoy it. 

In last 30 years nothing change for them as they started here in 1992 while playing against England in ODI World Cup semifinal until now they have no big achievement, what a shameful end for them from this World Cup.

And what a win for Pakistan which have same advantage 30 years back while West Indies beats Australia, and they qualified for the semifinal of historic world cup now after this match Netherlands vs South Africa.

I think if India and Pakistan can compete in the final match in any event like World Cup then it will start a festival in the cricket world. Cricket will be something different to the spectators for a few days. However, if there is no collapse in this type of match then the whole match is enjoyable. Although Pakistan is at the 4th position in T20 ranking, they should come into the game in a new way when they play against India. Mainly no series is organized between Pakistan and India for a long time that is why the matches are quite interesting to viewers.

India won @1.08

And so we have the semifinals confirmed! I will post the betting markets as well as odds on Wednesday with the first one:
New Zealand v Pakistan

And then on Thursday we do the same to watch:
India v England

Good luck to everyone who still has bets alive, my South Africa has left the building

South Africa keeps choking as usual in the big tournaments. Expected big things from them, but they ended up playing like crap in their critical encounter against NED. Van Der Merwe probably took the catch of the tournament.

India's match against Zimbabwe was pretty boring since they thrashed them as expected. Raza and Williams are the only decent players in their team in my opinion.

Excited for the semis between NZ, PAK, IND and ENG next week. IND vs PAK final would be epic!

The current match condition is worse especially the odds on behalf of India were at the beginning of the game will be reduced now as Zimbabwe is under a lot of pressure after losing 2 wickets in the beginning. Since the run is much higher the pressure will naturally increase further. However, Super 12 Group 2 India and Pakistan has been confirmed for the semi final.
[/quote] Of course today's match will see India reach the semi-finals and Zimbabwe will have to return home. Because their batting performance is so bad today they are not getting runs up at all but wickets are falling in quick succession. Today's two matches are Bangladesh vs Pakistan and India vs Zimbabwe in which Pakistan wins they reach semi-final while India vs Zimbabwe match India must win. Meanwhile we can see Zimbabwe team's batting performance with their runs not increasing at all and wickets falling.

Today Zimbabwe failed to start a good batting. Which has an effect on the whole match. Wesley Madhevere, Regis Chakabva, Wellington Masakadza and Richard Ngarava had to return with 1 or 0 runs. If there are several players do such type of work in a team, then it is a very difficult task to take the match to the end of the winning distance in that match. Where Zimbabwe has completely failed.
