Bangladesh lost to India in the T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8 match by 50 runs. The setback has put Bangladesh in jeopardy. Right now, Bangladesh’s chances of qualifying for the semifinals are incredibly low.
India now sits atop the table with seven points and a net run rate of 1.137 following their victory over Bangladesh. India’s victory tied Sri Lanka’s record for the most victories (32) in the history of the T20 World Cup.
Now let’s see how Bangladesh can still make it to the semifinals:
Bangladesh is still very much in the running, but their chances of reaching the T20 World Cup 2024 semifinals are far gone after their devastating loss to India. To qualify, Bangladesh would have to win in Afghanistan and India against Australia. Bangladesh would then need to defeat Afghanistan in their final Super 8 game. Afghanistan, Australia, and Bangladesh would all be tied on two points in this situation, and the team with the higher run rate would move on. Bangladesh needs a miracle to make it to the semifinals because of their low run rate.
