Australia, now comfortably sit at the top of the World Cup points table with 14 points. Australia’s victory not only solidified their position at the top but also brought good news for the likes of England, Pakistan and Bangladesh, who are fighting for a spot in the semi-finals. But if England loses against India on Sunday then the Kiwis will automatically secure qualification along with India, leaving England, Bangladesh and Pakistan fighting for one-spot. They would have to beat Bangladesh in their remaining match and hope that England don’t win more than one of the remaining two matches. They will qualify only if England lose all their remaining matches, Bangladesh do not win more than two and Pakistan lose at least one.
