#2 Small injuries to players will be less worrisome

A small niggle or injury won't derail a team's entire campaign

The format will allow teams to manage small niggles to the key players, by planning out properly in case some rest is required for a particular player. A smaller tournament may not have allowed that luxury, as virtually every match is critical. This will help teams who do not have good backups for the key roles in the squad.

Imagine a situation where there are only four matches that a team has to play, and a small niggle or something like fever forces a key player like Virat Kohli to sit out a couple of matches. Such forced change may impact the team’s entire campaign. But that will not be the case here, as every team will have so many chances to ensure that they make the top four and enter the semi-finals.
