The counting points to a clear shift in both states...
Australia's T20 World Cup semifinal aspirations suffered a major setback after a surprising 21-run loss to Afghanistan in the Super 8 game.
Digital Desk: Rain may disrupt the highly anticipated India vs Australia Super 8 clash at Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in Gros Islet, St Lucia. According to the weather forecast, the conditions are expected to be overcast with a possibility of thunderstorms on Monday. There is a significant 51 percent chance of rain at 10:00 AM local time, just half an hour before the match begins. Australia's chances of reaching the semifinals hinge on the outcome of this crucial match, led by Mitchell Marsh.
Australia's T20 World Cup semifinal aspirations suffered a major setback after a surprising 21-run loss to Afghanistan in the Super 8 game. India, on the other hand, secured four points with a victory over Bangladesh and is in a strong position to advance to the semifinals due to their positive run rate. Both Australia and Afghanistan currently have two points each. If Australia manages to defeat India, they will also reach four points and secure a spot in the semifinals, even if Afghanistan wins against Bangladesh and ties with Australia on points.
However, if Australia loses to India and Afghanistan emerges victorious against Bangladesh, Australia will be left with only two points, while Afghanistan will advance to the semifinals with four points. The stakes are high, and the pressure is on as the teams battle it out for a spot in the next round.
What happens if India vs Australia is washed out
If the match is called off due to rain, Australia and India will share a point, leaving the Aussies with three points. However, if Afghanistan beats Bangladesh, they will reach four points and qualify for the semifinals alongside India.
In the event of a washout, the only way Australia can secure a spot in the semis is if Bangladesh defeats Afghanistan. This scenario would leave Bangladesh and Afghanistan tied on two points, while India and Australia would advance to the semis with five and three points, respectively.
