Australia won a place in the semifinals of the ICC 2025 Champions Trophy after the game against Afghanistan was washed due to rain. However, the result has put Afghanistan in the hot waters, as they need a miracle to classify for the next stage.
While Australia has described Group B now, India and New Zealand had already achieved their grade a few days earlier. It means that Australia will face blue or kiwis men based on the results of the remaining two parties in the group stage.
The game between England and South -Africa will be played in Karachi on March 1 (Saturday). With good news for cricket fans, a clear forecast is expected to Karachi without any chance of rain.
When will the Ind-NZ game be played?
The final match of the group stage will be played between India and New Zealand in Dubai on March 2 (Sunday). Both teams have a great shape, as they have won both games so far against Bangladesh and Pakistan.
The winner of this match will be Group A and will face the second team of group B in the semifinals. Meanwhile, the loser of the match between India and New Zealand will face the first team of group B in the semifinals.
As a result, both parties are important for deciding the semifinalists. Although three semi-finals have already been decided, a place is still up to South Africa, being the favorites to take the place.
What if India surpasses the New Zealand?
If India surpasses New Zealand in Dubai in its final match of Group A, they will face Group A and will face the second team of group B. If South Africa loses in England, but it is classified based on the NRR superior to Afghanistan, they will live up to the blue men in the semifinal.
However, if South Africa loses badly by a huge margin of more than 207 in England, Afghanistan will have the opportunity to qualify for the semifinals as the second team of group B and will face India.
But if South Africa manages to defeat England on Saturday, they will emerge as Toppers of Group B, which will mean that Rohit Sharma and his men will face Australia, the second team in Group B, in the semifinals.
What if New Zealand wins in Dubai?
If New Zealand manages to overcome the men in blue in Dubai, they will pass to the top of Group A and, therefore, will face the second team of Group B. In this case, if South Africa loses in England but they are classified for the PNR-based semifinal, they will take New Zealand in the semifinal.
This puts men in blue in front of Australia in the semifinals. However, if South Africa loses in more than 207 runs, Afghanistan will face New Zealand in the semifinals. But if South Africa surpasses England, they will come out as Toppers of Group B and face India in the semifinals.
