With two teams having already advanced to the Semifinals, the World Cup is approaching its conclusion. Conversely, with every game, the competition between the next two teams becomes more intriguing. The three teams vying for third and fourth place are New Zealand, Australia, and Pakistan. After suffering few of the tournament’s losses, Pakistan produced a fantastic recovery, and they still have a chance to make it to the ODI World Cup 2023 semifinals.

The following matchup pits Pakistan against England, and a strong NRR will be necessary to advance to the semifinals. Pakistan’s situation could exacerbate if the Kiwis defeat Sri Lanka in their upcoming match, though, and secure a strong NRR in the process.

The fact that the NRR can separate teams with identical point totals highlights how crucial it is in the Cricket World Cup.

With eight points and an NRR of +0.036, Pakistan is now ranked fifth, while New Zealand Cricket Team is in fourth place with eight points and an NRR of +0.398. Both teams faced off in the most recent game, and PAK was able to regain the victory through the DLS method. The race for the semifinals has become more interesting ever since.

Pakistan Cricket team hopes are alive after the last won over New Zealand Cricket Team. In order to keep thier place in the semi-finals Pakistan must be looking at the next game of the kiwis which will be against Sri Lanka. If Kiwis are able to win the game against Sri Lanka then they will have 10 points and thier chances in the Semis will be stronger.

If Paksitan is also able to register a win against England in the next game, then the decider will be the net run rate. Pakistan must defeat England by a good margin so that it can help them improve their NRR. A good NRR can be a tiebreaker for both teams in the qualification of the semi-finals of the 2023 Cricket World Cup.

If Sri Lanka is able to defeat New Zealand and Pakistan wins the next game against England, Then, in that case, Pak will be able to qualify for the semi finals. Pakistan will hope on Australia Cricket Team or South Africa to defeat Afghanistan and keep them from scoring ten points in order to strengthen their position. But if Afghanistan wins both of their games, Net Run Rate will determine Pakistan’s destiny.
