Question 4
After scheduled quarter finals, if each team plays one more match such that the first match is played between the teams standing first and second; the second match is played between the teams standing third and fourth and so on. The winner of each match secures 2 points and its total points are compared with the points of losing team; the team which secures the maximum points will reach the semi-finals. If the points are the same, the team with more run rate will reach the semi-finals. Which team will definitely reach the semi-finals?

The matches will be played between
India (12)-Australia (10)/Iran (10)
Brazil (8)-Australia (10)/Iran (10)
Pakistan (6)-Croatia (5)
England (4)-France (1)
We see that only England is certain to reach semi-finals as even if France wins it will end up with 3 points which is less than England’s 4.

So, the total points from league round will be 4 (6 + 4) = 40 and in quarter finals, total matches were 24 and so total points of all the teams in quarter finals will be 24×2=48.So, after quarter finals, the sum of total points is 40 + 48 = 88.
