ICC World Cup 2023 Team India: With six victories in as many games, India's form in the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023 remains red hot and unassailable so far. The hosts have managed to go past every obstacle that were thrown towards them in the World Cup 2023 quite convincingly. However, despite such a terrific record and six wins, India has yet not qualified for World Cup 2023 Semi-Finals: Know Why?



Team India's recent victory came against England, the defending champions. India defeated Jos Buttler and his boys by a massive 100 runs at the BRSABV Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow to bring up their sixth win of the tournament. 



The win against England was quite convincing for India as they batted first for the first time in the showpiece event. Skipper Rohit Sharma wanted to challenge his team and as it turned out, the players got out of it. India scored 229 runs in 50 overs with the skipper remaining as the highest run-getter. Later in the game, India reduced England to a meagre total of 129 runs and won the game by 100 runs.



Notably, India has earlier defeated Australia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh and New Zealand to win their first five matches before demolishing England in the sixth fixture.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How can Team India not qualify for World Cup 2023 Semi-Final?</h2>



Though Team India has realistically qualified for the World Cup 2023 semi-final, mathematically the team is yet to see it happen. The chances of India not qualifying for the World Cup 2023 semi-final are very slim. 



For this to happen, India will have to lose all of their remaining three World Cup 2023 fixtures, which would put them in a spot of bother. India's next three games are against - Sri Lanka (Nov 2), South Africa (Nov 5) and Netherlands (Nov 12).



With the form India is in, no one can think this result would be possible unless a slew of improbable results transpire. In this case, India will finish their campaign on 12 points (6 wins) and can be pushed out from the top 4 only by Afghanistan, who is currently at sixth place with three wins from six matches.



Afghanistan has three more fixtures and needs to win all of them to eliminate India out of the top 4. 



Barring Afghanistan, no one of the remaining five teams in the bottom six bracket can come as an obstacle for Team India due to their lesser number of victories.



Moreover, New Zealand and Australia, placed at third and fourth place in the points table, will have to win two of their remaining three matches and only lose to Afghanistan. South Africa, too, will have to win one of their remaining three matches to match India's tally of 12 points.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How can Team India Qualify for World Cup 2023 semi-final?</h2>



India's equation to qualify for World Cup 2023 semi-final is quite simple. Just a win in any of its remaining three matches would mean India is through to the semi-final. India's next match is against Sri Lanka on November 2, a win from that game would do the trick for Team India.



It's important to note that if any of the remaining three India fixtures in the World Cup 2023 get washed out, then the teams will share one point each which would also mean that India are through to the World Cup 2023 semi-final.

Why Team India has not qualified for World Cup 2023 Semi-Final despite 6 Wins in ICC World Cup 2023

why-team-india-has-not-qualified-for-world-cup-2023-semi-final-despite-6-wins-in-icc-world-cup-2023

IND vs SA: South Africa have finally advanced to the next stage of the ongoing World Cup 2023 after becoming the second team to qualify for the Semi-Finals. South Africa's qualification came as Pakistan defeated New Zealand in the first game of the Sunday doubleheader on November 4.



With 12 points on board, South Africa are comfortably placed second in the ICC World Cup 2023 Points Table at the second spot with six victories in seven matches. Their only loss, so far, in the tournament came against Netherlands on October 17.



It is worth noting that none of Pakistan and New Zealand will be able to match South Africa's 12 points at the end of the league stage of the World Cup 2023. The two aforementioned teams are currently at eight points with just one match remaining in their campaign. So the best they could get to is 10 points.



Afghanistan can still join South Africa at 12 points at the end of the league stage if they manage to win both of their remaining fixtures. But the problem for them is both of their upcoming matches are heavyweights (vs Australia and South Africa). Net Run Rate will be another challenge for them.



Pakistan rode on the back of a blazing century from the blade of Fakhar Zaman, who piled up 126 runs in just 81 deliveries. If it was not for his fantastic century, then Pakistan would have struggled to get par with the DLS score, which came into play after the second rain interruption. 



Pakistan registered a DLS-manufactured win against New Zealand by 21 runs as against 401 runs scored by New Zealand in the first innings. 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New Zealand, Pakistan's World Cup 2023 Qualification Scenarios</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2023/11/PAK-vs-NZ.jpg" alt="IND vs SA: South Africa QUALIFY for World Cup 2023 Semi-Finals, New Zealand &amp; Pakistan's Qualification Scenarios" class="wp-image-122285" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image: Associated Press</figcaption></figure>



New Zealand World Cup 2023 Qualification Scenarios: Pd: 8, Win:4, Loss: 4



The Kiwis have put themselves in a bothering position with four defeats on the bounce. They are currently placed fourth in the points table with 8 points from as many matches. Their campaign has one more game left and even if they manage to win it, it would not be enough for them to comfortably sail to the next phase of the World Cup 2023.



If New Zealand wins their last game and at the same time Afghanistan loses its last two matches and England defeats Pakistan. This permutation and combination would mean that even at 10 points, New Zealand will be in the World Cup 2023 semi-finals.



Even if New Zealand, Pakistan and Afghanistan win one game each in the tournament it would boil down to the net run rate as all the teams will be at 10 points. New Zealand has a slightly better net run rate than the other two teams, hence they can qualify easily.



Pakistan's World Cup 2023 Qualification Scenarios: Pd: 8, Won: 4, Loss: 4 



Pakistan's best case to qualify for the World Cup 2023 semi-finals would be to defeat England in their last game and hope New Zealand and Afghanistan lose their remaining matches in the tournament. This way Pakistan will be through to the semi-finals without getting entangled in the net run rate race.



However, if New Zealand beats Sri Lanka by just one single run, then Pakistan will have to revisit their net run rate and they will have the responsibility to defeat England by more than 130 runs.

IND vs PAK Semi-Final World Cup 2023: A blockbuster contest that could very much become a reality in the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023 would be another round of the India vs Pakistan fixture. The recent permutation and combinations of the showpiece event have a good chance of staging a semi-final contest between arch-rivals India and Pakistan on November 15. 



As per the current points table of the World Cup 2023, Team India, qualified for the semi-finals, have secured a top finish with eight consecutive victories in the tournament. India's resounding 243-run win against South Africa ensured the Men in Blue an unassailable top-of-the-table finish at the end of the league stage with one fixture still to go.



Meanwhile, South Africa, also qualified, is placed second with 12 points. Australia has 10 points and is in the third spot while three teams - New Zealand, Pakistan and Afghanistan, have eight points each and are placed in the fourth, fifth and sixth place respectively.



With India confirmed to remain in the pole position, they will take on the number 4 ranked team in the first semi-final of the World Cup 2023, the place which will be contested by New Zealand, Pakistan and Afghanistan. While the Netherlands will have an outside chance to take a leap and occupy the fourth spot, although, very improbable.



If Pakistan manages to secure fourth place in the points table, then the India vs Pakistan Semi-Final World Cup 2023 will become a reality and a treat for cricket fans to witness another epic contest between the two rivals.



This article will lead you through how Pakistan can qualify for the semi-finals and make the India vs Pakistan semi-final clash a reality:



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">India vs Pakistan Semi-Final World Cup 2023 Scenarios</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2023/11/WC-Points-Table.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-122374" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">World Cup 2023 Points Table as of November 6 | Image: icc-cricket.com</figcaption></figure>



Australia is placed third in the points table with 10 points and still two games to go. A single win, from their remaining two games, will help them secure a berth in the semi-finals and they will be sealed at the third position. Then there will be only one vacant semi-final spot which will have four contenders. 



Semi-Final World Cup 2023 Qualification Scenarios: 



<ul>
<li>Pakistan's best scenario for semi-final qualification would be to win their remaining game against England and hope both New Zealand and Afghanistan lose their remaining matches in the World Cup 2023. This will put Pakistan at 10 points while the other two teams will finish at 8 points. Hence a direct semi-final qualification for Pakistan.</li>



<li>However, if Afghanistan seals at least one victory off their two remaining fixtures (against Australia and South Africa), and New Zealand loses against Sri Lanka, then Afghanistan and Pakistan will be tied at 10 points and the net run rate will be prevalent in deciding as to who takes the fourth semi-final spot. Pakistan has a slightly better net run rate than Afghanistan, which is a great sign for the Men in Green.</li>



<li>If Afghanistan wins both of its remaining matches, then they will finish with 12 points which will rule out the possibility of Pakistan's qualification for the World Cup 2023 semi-final and the eventual India vs Pakistan semi-final.</li>



<li>Moreover, if New Zealand wins their last fixture, and Pakistan and Afghanistan, both, lose their remaining games, then New Zealand will take the semi-final spot.</li>



<li>If New Zealand and Pakistan manage a victory in their last fixture, while Afghanistan also manages to win one of their remaining two matches, then all three teams will finish with 10 points and the net run rate will come into play. The team with a better net run rate will proceed to the semi-finals.</li>
</ul>



India vs Pakistan semi-final World Cup 2023 will only be possible if Pakistan bags the fourth semi-final spot. If that happens, the semi-final 1 will be India vs Pakistan on November 15 in Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium.

SA vs AUS Semi-Final World Cup 2023: In a confirmed knockout fixture of the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023, South Africa will meet Australia in the 2nd semi-final. As per the rules, the second and third-ranked teams at the end of the World Cup group stage play out the second semi-final of the tournament. The first semi-final is played by the first and fourth-ranked teams.



Australia, though, began their campaign on distressing terms, they quickly revisited their plans and made necessary amends to return to the winning ways. After going down in the opening two games of the World Cup, they bounced back with six wins on the trot after playing eight matches.



In the recent fixture, Australia defeated Afghanistan by three wickets to confirm their ticket to the World Cup 2023 semi-final. Glenn Maxwell played an impactful unbeaten knock of 201 runs in just 128 deliveries to power Australia through against Afghanistan.



South Africa, on the other hand, confirmed their semi-final qualification earlier in the tournament. Owing to their consistent show in the World Cup 2023, the Proteas have sealed second place in the points table and thus will play the second semi-final against Australia, who have secured third place.

Netherlands and Pakistan have defeated Bangladesh at this venue in the ongoing tournament, while in the most recent outing, India got better of South Africa in this venue.



Talking about the recent fixture held between India and South Africa. The surface was decent to bat on in the initial phase, but as soon as the spinners took over it became extremely difficult to counter them. However, despite the spin threat India managed to post a 326-run total. In response, South Africa couldn't give a fitting reply to the hosts and got dismissed at a score of 83 runs.

India vs New Zealand Semi-Final CONFIRMED: In a much-awaited confirmation, India is set to cross swords against New Zealand in the 1st semi-final of the World Cup 2023. The confirmation came as ICC released the video before the Diwali celebration in India.



Although mathematically Pakistan is still in the contest, practically it is impossible for them to overpower New Zealand's net run rate and get into the fourth place in the World Cup 2023 Points Table. To put things in perspective, England has scored 337 runs in 50 overs and to move past New Zealand's net run rate Pakistan needs to chase it down in just 6.4 overs. Sounds like only a miracle would be able to save them.



Even if Pakistan manages to smash sixes in every delivery till 6.4 overs, they would still be 97 runs behind, considering no extras were bowled.



Keeping those facts in mind, the first semi-final of the World Cup 2023 will be held between India and New Zealand. The first-ranked team and the fourth-ranked side take guard in the semi-final one, which is scheduled to be held in Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium on November 15.



Below is the Diwali celebration video released by the International Cricket Council (ICC) on Friday:

It is worth noting that India defeated England in Lucknow to place their one foot into the semi-finals and then in the next fixture defeated Sri Lanka to become the first team to qualify for the World Cup 2023 semi-finals. A game later, Rohit Sharma and his boys ensured a top-of-the-table finish in the World Cup 2023 Points Table after defeating South Africa by 243 runs.



However, New Zealand had to rely on the permutation and combinations to qualify for the top 4. A couple of days ago, the Kiwis were entangled in a three-way battle against Pakistan and Afghanistan to confirm a semi-final spot. 



Afghanistan were defeated by Australia and South Africa and were eliminated from the tournament. While Pakistan were still in the race, New Zealand's win against Sri Lanka in Bengaluru, a couple of days ago, made things harder for Pakistan.



Pakistan had a poor net run rate and for them to supersede New Zealand's position, they required some special effort, perhaps a miracle against England in the ongoing fixture. However, it has been tough going for Pakistan so far. Their qualification chances have gone down by 100 per cent. 



Subsequently, with the elimination of Pakistan from the tournament, New Zealand automatically qualified for the World Cup 2023 Semi-Finals. They will now face India in the knockout fixture to be held at Wankhede Stadium on November 15.

IND vs NZ: Team India's performance in the World Cup Semi-Finals over the years, Results: The cricket fever has reached its peak as just a few hours remain for the all-important first knockout fixture of the ongoing World Cup 2023. The event, which started on October 5, is now at its final stages and in the next couple of days, the cricket world shall witness a rise of the World champions.



India and New Zealand are set to lock horns in the first semi-final of the World Cup 2023. The fixture will be held at the Wankhede Stadium on November 15, starting at 2:00 PM.



The hosts, India, are having a dream run in the tournament, having won all of their league-stage fixtures. The Men in Blue are the only team that has remained undefeated so far in the ODI World Cup 2023. Their sublime show in the league stages ensured a top-of-the-table finish for them.



On the other side, New Zealand had a bittersweet time so far in the showpiece event. They began their World Cup 2023 campaign on a strong note, however, what followed next was not a memorable sight for them. They kicked off their run with four victories on the bounce, but soon they slipped to four consecutive defeats, before eventually winning the ninth fixture and making it to the semi-finals, the last moment.



The two aforementioned teams faced each other in the 2019 World Cup semi-final at Manchester. The IND vs NZ fixture, back then, spanned across two days, due to multiple rain interruptions before eventually making the Kiwis the winner of the contest by 18 runs. Team India was subsequently shown exit door from the 2019 World Cup, after performing so well in the league stages.



India has qualified for the World Cup semi-finals for the fourth consecutive time. The Men in Blue were in the top 4 in 2011, 2015 and 2019 editions of the World Cups.



Notably, India has lost both of its last two semi-final appearances in 2015 and 2019. Their loss during the 2015 World Cup semi-final came against Australia in Sydney, while New Zealand got better of India in the 2019 Semi-Final held at Manchester.



If we talk about India's overall performance in the World Cup semi-finals over the years, it's a bit embarrassing and concerning. In seven semi-final appearances, only three have gone India's way, and the other four have resulted in a loss.

Prithvi Shaw did not find any takers as the Mumbai batter went unsold in the IPL 2025 auction. Prithvi, who had a base price of Rs 75 lakh in the auction, was released by Delhi Capitals but he did not attract any bids from the ten franchises.
Delhi Capitals co-owner Parth Jindal has said that Prithvi Shaw is misunderstood in many ways but needed a 'jolt' in the form of the IPL 2025 Auction snub. Shaw has been part of the Delhi franchise since returning as the U-19 World Cup winning captain in 2018 and was bought for 1.2 Crores. Ahead of the 2022 auction, the Mumbai batter was retained by DC for Rs. 7.5 Crore but the past few seasons hasn't been great for the 25-year-old.
Speaking to Sports Today, Jindal said that Shaw is a great kid but needed a jolt to get up from his slumber. The DC co-owner feels that Shaw needs to work hard, get back the love of the game and get disciplined. Jindal ended by saying he hopes the Mumbai batter can return back to his best form
Delhi has backed Prithvi Shaw a lot. DC had hoped that he is a powerplay player and would hit 6 boundaries in one over. And he did that too. He hit Shivam Mavi for 6 fours in an over. He had a lot of potential and DC backed him to the hilt. We always thought that if Shaw manages to score, we will win. And we gave him a lot of chances," Kaif told on Jio Cinema.

Prithvi got a lot of chances and teams have now finally moved on, and it is a matter of embarrassment that he did not get a bid for Rs 75 lakh. Maybe now, he finally goes back to basics. Someone like Sarfaraz Khan got into the national team by scoring lots and lots of runs," he concluded.
In the 79 matches he has played, Shaw has scored 1892 runs at an average of 23.95 and a strike-rate of 147.47. He also scored 14 fifties during this time.

Prithvi shaw is just 25 and has lot of cricket left inside him ,the thing he need that to focus on his fitness and batting weakness.

The MI Emirates produced a clinical display with the bat and the ball, handing the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders a 28-run defeat at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in the Match 14 of International League T20 (ILT20) 2025 on Tuesday, January 21.
MI Emirates got off to a strong start when they were asked to bat first, with openers Muhammad Waseem (38) and Kusal Perera making a strong stand at the top. The Sri Lankan Perera was the first to leave for 23 soon before the powerplay ended, following a 42-run partnership between the two players. Tom Banton entered, and he and Waseem made sure the MI Emirates maintained the run rate.
Banton was out for nine around the halfway point of the innings, while Waseem was out for 38 shortly after. Kieron Pollard replaced skipper Nicholas Pooran, but the seasoned right-hander struggled to get going and was eventually sent out for five by Ali Khan. With just over 6 overs remaining, the score was at 102/4.
Following Dan Mousley's dismissal for six, Romario Shepherd joined his skipper for the innings' last stretch. Jason Holder made a solid 49, but Pooran, who was hitting it cleanly, was almost at his half-century before he fell.
<img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_870x_6790c540e2f01.jpg" alt="">
Shepherd was given more attention in the last few overs as a result. In order to end with an undefeated 38 from 13 deliveries, the powerful right-hander then moved through the gears and hammered three maximums and four boundaries. After slowing down for a few overs in the middle, the MI Emirates eventually reached 186/6.

In second inning with openers Kyle Mayers and Andries Gous attacking the MI Emirates bowlers, the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders got off to a fast start. Before Dan Mousley ran him out with a brilliant bit of fielding, Mayers, who hit three sixes, scored 22 off 14 deliveries.
 
The MI Emirates seized control after that, finishing a 39-run partnership in the fourth over in second inning.
Following Joe Clarke's dismissal by Akeal Hosein for three, Romario Shepherd took out Michael-Kyle Pepper for five and Alishan Sharafu for four. The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders were 56/4 at the conclusion of a thrilling Powerplay.
The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders were further put under pressure after Waqar Salamkheil dismissed Laurie Evans for seven and Zahoor Khan caught Gous in the deep for thirty-four. Hopes of a recovery were raised when Sunil Narine and Andre Russell were called to the middle and embarked on a half-century stand.
But Narine was caught at cover for 13 in the 18th over, and David Willey was dismissed by Fazalhaq Farooqi in the 19th. The MI Emirates won easily, and Russell, who was still undefeated at 37 from 23 deliveries, was unable to lead his team across the finish line.

players like Romario Shepherd and Nicholas Pooran, the MI Emirates were able to close the gap on the top team to just two points.
Alzarri Joseph and Shepherd each took two wickets to thwart the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders' chase, while four of the MI Emirates' bowlers were in excellent form that evening.
In the whole match Romario Shepherd was the centre of attraction for the crowd with his bowling and batting, although the show was lasser but effective for MI Emirates to build pressure on the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders.

IND vs ENG: Former Indian cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin has announced his playing XI for the first T20I against England. The match between the two teams is all set to take place on Wednesday (22nd January) at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
India and England will be locking horns with each other in the five-match T20I series. Both teams have a mixed combination of seniors and youngsters in the team, and with the way they have played of late, it's fair to say that it will be an exciting series to watch. 
Coming to the first T20I, Ravichandran Ashwin backed Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma to open the innings for the team. The duo has been doing a decent job together as an opener and would be hoping to carry on the same form in the upcoming first match. 
Sanju Samson was at his exceptional best in the T20Is last year as he slammed three tons. While on the other hand, Abhishek Sharma hasn't been able to maintain consistency. Hence the series will be extremely important for him with the bat. 
At No.3, Ravichandran Ashwin picked Tilak Varma. The left-hander oozed his class with the bat in the last series against South Africa. He batted at No.3 and slammed two back-to-back centuries. Skipper Suryakumar Yadav, as per Ashwin, will bat at No.4.
Hardik Pandya, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Axar Patel are the three all-rounders picked by Ravichandran Ashwin in his Indian XI for the first IND vs ENG T20I. They are expected to play a major role with the bat and ball. 
Rinku Singh also has been picked by Ravichandran Ashwin in his Indian XI for the first IND vs ENG team. He will be taking the role of finisher while there was no place for Ravi Bishnoi, who hard has put a foot wrong in his T20I career. Varun Chakravarthy will be there as per Ashwin. 
Mohammed Shami and Arshdeep Singh are the two fast bowlers picked by Ravichandran Ashwin for the first IND vs ENG XI. Shami will be making his comeback to the team after a year, while Arshdeep will be keen to make an impact.

Former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali talked about the delay in the squad of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 for the Pakistan team. He said that it might look like they are scared of announcing the team, but it seems that they don't know what to do. 
The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is around the corner and all the teams have named their squad for the tournament except the hosts Pakistan. The Men in Green are yet to announce the team even though the deadline of 12th January has already been surpassed by a long margin. 
India, Australia, England, South Africa, New Zealand, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan have all revealed their squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This has made many speculate about why Pakistan isn't announcing their squad for the tournament, which is less than one month away. 
There have been several reports that Pakistan will be announcing their squad for the tournament soon. They are awaiting the fitness of a few players, and hence, they will soon be naming the team. Some reports also have revealed the players who will be playing, but an official announcement is yet to come. 
<h2>Pakistan kya darr gaya jo abhi tak team announce nahi ki? Nahi dara nahi hai. Samajh nahi aa rahi hai - Basit Ali </h2>
Amid all this, former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali commented on the same, saying that no one knows what is happening. He speculated that they might be waiting for the fitness report on Saim Ayub. Speaking in a video posted on his YouTube channel, he explained: 
"Pakistan kya darr gaya jo abhi tak team announce nahi ki? Nahi dara nahi hai. Samajh nahi aa rahi hai -- karein to kya karein? (Is Pakistan scared to announce their squad? No, it isn't, just unsure what to do and what not). The biggest issue is whether Saim Ayub can return fit or not. It's still not clear." 
It remains to be seen when will Pakistan announce the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The tournament is all set to take place from 19th February, with the final all set to be played on 9th March.
