U19 World Cup 2024 Points Table
The Super-6 round of the Under-19 World Cup 2024 is underway, with fans witnessing thrilling matches daily. The Super-6 round is divided into two groups, with the top two teams from each group advancing to the semi-finals. Group-1 includes India, Pakistan, New Zealand, Nepal, Ireland, and Bangladesh. After their victory over New Zealand, India is almost certain to make it to the semi-finals. However, for three teams in Group-1, the path to the semi-finals is virtually closed.
U19 World Cup: Here’s how the situation is shaping up: Each team plays two matches in the Super Six round. India, having won against New Zealand by 214 runs, currently holds 6 points from 3 matches and boasts a net run rate of +3.330, placing them at the top of the table. They have one remaining match against Nepal, and given their current form, they are likely to secure another win. The Pakistani team, also with 6 points, is in second place but trails India in net run rate and has one match left against Bangladesh.
U19 World Cup: The remaining teams in this group are Bangladesh, New Zealand, Nepal, and Ireland. Bangladesh still has both its matches left to play, against Pakistan and Nepal. They are the only team that could potentially reach 6 points, equal to India and Pakistan, if they win both matches. However, New Zealand, Nepal, and Ireland cannot reach the semi-finals even if they win their remaining matches. Thus, the doors to the semi-finals are essentially closed for these teams. Let’s delve into their situation.
