21.10.1 Group Matches

The following points system will apply:

Win 2
Tie or no result 1
Loss 0

In the event of teams finishing on equal points in its Group, the ordering of teams will be decided in the following order of priority:

• The team with the most wins in the Group matches will be placed in the higher position.
• If there are teams with equal points and equal wins in the Group matches then in such case the team with the higher net run rate in the Group matches will be placed in the higher position (refer to 21.11 below for the calculation of net run rate).
• If still equal, the team which was the winner of the head to head match played between them will be placed in the higher position.
• In the highly unlikely event that teams cannot be separated by the above this will be done by drawing lots.
• If all the matches in a group are no results, the teams will be placed in the Super League and Plate Championship in accordance with their original ranking positions as set out here

So NRR before head to head

^^ Thanks. Anyway, I don't think SL can upset (yes upset) mighty SA with their poor batting line up in their next match and SA always plays good in League match. They will chock in Semi's, don't worry

Allah should help us! we might be knocked out!

NRR doesn't matter if you bat first or 2nd right? If it does matter, we have to bat first against Namibia and put up 250+ and bowl them out for not much more than 100.

What moronic team selection!!

How can a team play just ONE regular pacer in Aussie conditions? This is what happen when you pick so many bits n bobs bowlers (instead of specialist bowlers) ;you ran a serious risk of being batted out of the match. Why no Haider or Abu Jayed?? Hunting as a lone pacer not an easy task. Seems like Taskin got successfully targeted by SA.

Absolute dustbin team planning by coach Sarwar and the skipper! Pathetic!
