ICC Champions Trophy 2017: Qualification scenario for each team

Pakistan

Pakistan have a big chance of qualifying to the semis

Pakistan had a nightmarish start to their 2017 ICC Champions Trophy campaign as they lost to India by 124 runs via DLS method at Edgbaston. But, Pakistan did what they do best, ie. being unpredictable in any tournament as they went on to surprise World no. 1 South Africa by earning a 19-run win over the Proteas.

It was a completely contrasting performance from their game against India as they outplayed AB de Villiers and co. in all three departments and registered a big win that saw their NRR come down from -3.02 to -1.54. With this win, they put themselves in a situation of getting qualified for the semis.

For Pakistan to qualify,

If Pakistan beat Sri Lanka: Pakistan will go through to the semis

If Pakistan lose to Sri Lanka: Pakistan are knocked out of the tournament

If Pakistan vs Sri Lanka ends in a washout: Pakistan will get knocked out of the tournament
