Pakistan will be out of semi-final race if they lose the toss against Bangladesh; here's how
Pakistan is virtually out of the semi-final race after England won two back-to-back matches against India and New Zealand. Pakistan will now play to restore their image and end the tournament on a high. Pakistan can only qualify for the semi-final if they defeat Bangladesh by 300 runs which is next to impossible.
If Pakistan loses the toss against Bangladesh and is asked to bat first and even if they win by 10 wickets they will not qualify for the semi-final because of their net run-rate. Here are the things Pakistan will have to do to qualify for the semi-final after winning the toss. The scenario for Pakistan will have to be like the given below situations:
1. If Pakistan scores 308 runs then they will have to all-out Bangladesh for 0 runs.
2. If Pakistan scores 325 runs then they will have to all-out Bangladesh for 16 runs.
3. If Pakistan scores 350 runs then they will have to all-out Bangladesh for 38 runs.
4. If Pakistan scores 375 runs then they will have to all-out Bangladesh for 61 runs.
5. If Pakistan scores 400 runs then they will have to all-out Bangladesh for 84 runs.
6. If Pakistan scores 420 runs then they will have to all-out Bangladesh for 102 runs.
7. If Pakistan scores 440 runs then they will have to all-out Bangladesh for 120 runs.
