The Group 2 champions, South Africa, may face the team that qualifies in second position in this class.
Australia's 24- work beat against India in the Super Eight stage of the T20 World Cup 2024 means their semi- last chances today depend on the result of the next group game, between Bangladesh and Afghanistan. For Australia to qualify, Bangladesh have to conquer Afghanistan, but by a percentage of under 62 plays if they bird first ( assuming a total of 140 ). If Bangladesh chase, they'll need to get to 141 in at least 12.4 overs for Australia to finish with a higher run rate.
That means Bangladesh, whose net run rate is currently languishing at -2.489, need a huge win on Monday night to surpass Australia's -0.331. A win by 62 or more runs, and a chase of 141 in 12.3 overs or earlier, will push them to second place on the points table. ( If they level the scores and then win with a six, they can push the chase to 13.1 overs. ) If Afghanistan score 160, Bangladesh can stay ahead of Australia by chasing it down in 12.5 overs or sooner ( if they score 161 ), or in 13.3 overs if they level scores and win with a six.
For Afghanistan, the equation is much easier: a win will ensure second place in the group and a place in the semi- finals, while a defeat will knock them out. That's because even with a Super Over defeat, their NRR will only improve to -0.433, which is still below Australia's -0.331.
The second-placed team will face South Africa in a night game on Wednesday in Tarouba, while India will face England in a day game on Thursday in Providence.
