ODI WC 2023 / Who will win among England, Australia and Pakistan, see these equations

ODI WC 2023: The ICC World Cup 2023 is at its peak right now. All the teams have to play nine matches in the league stage. As per the situation so far, all ten teams have played four to five matches, that is, almost half of the matches have been played and the race for the semi-finals is now going to intensify. Out of ten, only four teams will go to the semi-finals, the rest of the teams' World Cup journey will end. Meanwhile, the points table is visible, if this trend continues then the top 3 teams at present will go to the semi-finals, but the toughest race will be for the last position. Because only one team will be able to go there, but the competition will be between three teams. Australia, Pakistan and England. Out of these three, only one team seems to be in a position to move ahead. Provided that there may be some more upheaval in the times to come.

ICC World Cup 2023 latest points table is like this

If we look at the current points table in the ODI World Cup 2023, we find that Team India is currently occupying the number one position in the points table by winning five of its five matches. After this, South African team is at second place. Which has won four out of five matches and the team has eight points. The New Zealand team, which was seen at number one and two just a few days ago, has now reached the third position. He also has four wins and eight points. But in terms of net run rate, the South African team is not only ahead of New Zealand but is also ahead of the Indian team. After this, the Australian team is at number four. Having won two out of four matches and lost two, the team has only four points and NRR i.e. Net Run Rate is also in minus. Pakistani team is at number six and its net run rate is in minus even after two wins. The condition of England is the worst, which has currently won only one match out of four and has only two points after three defeats. The team is struggling at number nine.

If you win seven matches, entry into the semi-finals will be confirmed.

As we already told you that all the teams have to play nine matches in the league stage. Out of these, the team which wins its seven matches will be confirmed to enter the semi-finals. Because there cannot be more than four such teams. The Indian team has won five out of five matches and now it needs to win only two out of the four remaining matches, which will be done very easily. Whereas South Africa has won four out of five matches. That means he will now have to win three out of the remaining four matches. The condition of New Zealand is also the same. The team has won four out of five matches and now from here it has to win three out of the remaining four matches. The way these teams are performing shows that winning two to three matches will not be much of a problem for these three teams. If any of these teams is able to win, say, seven matches, then even by winning six matches, the semi-final berth will be confirmed. But the thing to be noted here is that more than one team can reach 12 points simultaneously, hence the team which has a good net run rate will go to Super 4 i.e. semi-finals, the team which has less will go to the semi-finals. Even after winning the competition, she will be deprived of going ahead. The NRR of the top 3 teams, India, South Africa and New Zealand is also good, so there should not be much problem for them.

There is going to be a tough fight for the fourth team of the semi-finals

Now the question will remain about the fourth team. That is, which will be the fourth team going to the semi-finals. Australia has only four points, while Pakistan also has four points. But the problem for Pakistan is that it has played its five matches. That means, if the team wins each of the remaining four matches, Pakistan will be able to get 12 points. If Australia wins the remaining five matches then it will have 14 points. If we talk about England, its condition is very bad. England has played four of its matches and has won only one of them. Now the team will have to win the remaining five matches from here, only then the number of wins will be six. Firstly, this task is very difficult, but even if it is done then the net run rate will play a decisive role. In such a situation, the path ahead is going to be very difficult for England.
