The tenth and ongoing edition of the T20 World Cup is in its business end, with the picture regarding the top four teams getting clearer with each passing day.
Although seven of the eight that made it to the Super Eight leg are still in contention for a place in the semi-final, a lot will depend on the result of the two matches scheduled to be played today between South Africa and West Indies and India and Zimbabwe.
The Scenario (Group 1)
If South Africa wins against West Indies theresult will be beneficial for India as it will make things a little easy for the Men in Blue who will have to win big against Zimbabwe and hope for South Africa to win their next game against Zimbabwe as well for the home team to further strengthen their chances of qualifying for the next round by getting the better of West Indies in the last match of theSuper Eight stage.
The Equation (Group 2)
Things are a lot clearer in Group 1, with England having already qualified, meaning that there is only one spot up for grabs between New Zealand and Pakistan, and a New Zealand win against England will help the Kiwis make it to the top four.
The Performance
If India wins the upcoming match against Zimbabwe, they will add to their tally of wins in the T20 World Cup, which stands at 39 as of now, the most by any team in the history of the tournament.
