The World T-20, India clinched a nail biter last night against Bangladesh to keep their semifinals hopes alive. India is placed in Group-2 along with, New Zealand, Pakistan, Australia and Bangladesh. Though last night's victory has given India 4 points from 3 matches and pushed them to number two position in the points table, their net run rate is still a factor to be worried about. India's net run rate is still lesser than that of Pakistan and Australia, who have 2 points each. This is decisive as this instills chances for Pakistan, Australia and India for semifinals.Pakistan have struggled so far in the tournament but Australia are in no mood to take them lightly in a must-win match for both teams tomorrow. A win tomorrow for Pakistan will keep on thread in the tournament. Australia, on the other hand, have their own issues to sort out after the loss to New Zealand and a not so convincing win against Bangladesh. A win for Australia tomorrow will certainly end Pakistan's sorry campaign in the tournament and make their final league match against hosts India a virtualquarterfinal with New Zealand already qualifying from the group.
