Here is what you need to know about World Cup Super League points table and Sri Lanka's chances.. Let's go through..
As the Sri Lanks vs New Zealand 3 match ODI series is one just started, let's talk about the scenarios of the automatic qualifications for the World Cup 2023.
Sri Lanka need a non-less than 3-0 or 2-0 with one no result. Otherwise we are not going to make the top 8 only with our efforts. If we can achieve one of above results, that will surely assure the 8th place. If we lose one match, then we will have to wait until Netherlands beat South Africa and Bangladesh to beat Ireland atleast one in match.
For your ease, here is the points WI, SL, SA and Ireland will achieve with the results of remaining World Cup Super League Matches.
🌴WI- 88 (no more matches) - at 8th place
🇱🇰Sri Lanka (3 match series vs NZ)
3-0 : 107 pts
2-0 with one no-result: 102
2-1 : 97 pts
1-2 : 87 pts
🇿🇦South Africa (2 match series vs Netherlands)
2-0 : 98 pts
1-1 : 88 pts
🇮🇪Ireland (3 match series vs Bangladesh)
3-0 : 98 pts
2-0: 93 pts
2-1: 88 pts
*The points are calculated assuming there will not be any deductions for slow over rate, remember Sri Lanka lost 3 points due to slow over rates and that could've increased Sri lanka's chances if we have those deducted points.
After all these considerations, Sri Lanka has only one job, that is winning. That will ensure their world cup spot than expecting others to lose. Let's hope for the best.
