https://www.cricketworldcup.com/bracket-challengeIf we lose both Pakistan and England win both games we can still sneak in on run rate. If Pakistan, England and Sri Lanka win all and we lose all, then we definitely are out. Unlikely though as it requires SL and England to beat India.
Well both of those results ain't happening.
Looking well like SL out of the running after today (unless the slinga wipes out SA)
I can see us sweating on RR to be honest. We are vulnerable to a team that goes 'all out'and England will be doing just that.
I'm kind of hoping we lose v Australia as we won't beat them twice.@Crucial
I'll be very surprised if England beats India on Sunday. India are in fine form and the pressure is really getting to England.I also disagree with your point on Australia. A win is a guaranteed semi, missing out on RR after 3 consecutive loses would be a terrible end to this tournament for us. Much worse than losing to Australia in a semi in my opinion.

If we lose both games we will possibly be in danger from Pakistan and England. Three teams could be fighting out two spots. Pakistan are likely to increase their RR, England may stay the same and we may decrease.
I always want to beat Oz but if we only did so once I'd prefer it was in the final.
It would be a terrible end but then the draw was always going to have us coming to the crunch in the latter stages. We don't get to have momentum games at the end like Pakistan

I half hope we chuck a France in 2011. Get smashed in the pool game and in the dressing sheds after the game tell the Aussies "see you in the final" and just have them standing there thinking "we still have to make it and you blokes already think you are in it".

So Sri Lanka losing this means we can only miss out now on NRR? We'd have to get pounded by both Eng and Aus to miss out now, surely. Good result for us I reckon

From what I’ve worked out there’s little chance of us missing out (famous last words!)
Seems more about who’s taking the 4th spot , the poms or pakis -

It should be a bit more obvious after this weekend. 2 big matches between the top 4 sides.
Pakistan with 2 more likely wins. England with Aus and NZ a little more challenging.
Bangles still a chance but India and Pakistan a tough ask.

Afghans just batted out the entire 50. First time in the World Cup. Got their highest total too.

and now need 16 off the last two overs with three witckets in hand
-
Pitch is a bit up and down. Shami already sent one down at 139 that didn't get up
-
England off to an excellent start. 6+ rpo and no wickets lost after 15.
-
India are seriously under the pump now. England have found a belter and they are feeding on it.
