Road to Semi-Final for T20 World Cup

On Sunday, Pakistan defeated the Netherlands and South Africa edged past India in the race for semi-finals in Group 2 of the Super 12 stage of the ongoing T20 World Cup. South Africa leads Group 2 after three rounds of matches, while India has dropped to second place. However, everything is on the line. Pakistan, led by Babar Azam, is still in contention for the semi-finals despite losses to India and Zimbabwe.
South Africa currently has five points from three matches, while India and Bangladesh each have four points. Zimbabwe has three points, while Pakistan has two. However, it is worth noting that India has a higher net run rate (+0.844) than Bangladesh. India and Bangladesh are scheduled to play each other on Wednesday, and this match will be crucial in determining who advances to the semi-finals.
South Africa has an incredible net run rate of +2.772, making them the clear favorites to advance to the Group 2 semi-finals. When it comes to Pakistan, they need something special to make it to the final four, and they must first defeat South Africa and Bangladesh.
Pakistan will have 6 points if they defeat South Africa and Bangladesh. Then they need other outcomes to go their way.
Zimbabwe's loss to Bangladesh has put them on the back foot, and it appears unlikely that they will advance to the semi-finals. Their final two games are against the Netherlands and India.
