Four teams have been eliminated from the race for the semi-finals of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 so far. However, no team has officially got the elimination tag yet, but the World Cup 2023 points table is telling a lot. After Bangladesh, Netherlands and England, the possibility of Pakistan team reaching the top 4 is almost over. If any of these teams qualify for the top 4 i.e. semi-finals, they will be called Karisma.
Pakistan team World Cup Fourth defeat of 2023. The team has managed to win only 2 out of 6 matches. Similar situation is with the teams of Bangladesh, Netherlands and England. These teams have also lost four matches each and in such a situation, if these teams win the remaining matches, they can only reach the maximum of 10 points. Making the top 10 has become almost impossible in this situation, as 6 teams still have a chance to finish the league phase with 12 or more points.
Where did the Pakistan team fall behind against South Africa? Captain Babar Azam said the reason
Pakistan team’s next three matches are against Bangladesh, New Zealand and England. If the Pakistan team loses even one match in the next match, they will be officially out of the tournament. Apart from this, there is also the fact that if any team loses the matches in Pakistan vs Bangladesh and Pakistan vs England matches then their chances of reaching top 4 will be completely destroyed. The ifs and buts are almost over for Pakistan.
Captain Babar Azam himself has admitted that the team’s chances of reaching the top 4 are over. “We had a chance to win this match and stay in the race, but not now. We will do our best in the next 3 matches and do well for Pakistan,” he said at the post-match ceremony after the loss. A match against South Africa. will play Let’s see where we stand after that. Babar Azam will be looking to win the last three matches to finish in the top 6.
What is it like to reach PAK top 4?
Only if the fourth placed team qualifies with 10 points, the Pakistani team can reach the top 4. That doesn’t seem possible this year. Apart from this, the reason for Pakistan not making it to the top 4 would also be that if the team qualified with 10 points, the net run rate of the team should be better, but that is not the case. Pakistan will have to win their remaining three matches by big margins and hope that the other teams’ wins and losses will be as they expect.
