World Cup 2019: Semi-finals qualification scenario for all teams

#1 New Zealand

Remaining matches

Vs Pakistan, at Birmingham, Jun 26

Vs Australia, at London, Jun 29

Vs England, at Chester-le-Street, Jul 3

With 11 points from six matches, New Zealand are sitting pretty at the top of the points table at the moment. The Kiwis have been able to win a couple of nail-bitters against South Africa and West Indies and have been a team to beat in the competition so far.

However, the team will realise that they are yet to face Australia and England, two teams that are considered to be the favorites to lift the trophy. The Black caps will also be wary of the fact that they will need to enter the semi-finals with some momentum.

They will be up against Pakistan on June 26th. If they win even one of their remaining matches they will make it to the semis. The Kiwis are set to qualify for the semis even if they go on to lose all their remaining matches as it is highly unlikely that four teams will end up with more than 11 points.
