How come England is in first position in Group B?
by Krishna N on Jun 09, 2009 09:21 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Pak lost against england by 48 runs
England lost against Netherlands by 2 wickets
Pak won against Netherlands by 83 runs.
How come England is in first position in Group B, instead of Pakistan?
Anyway, ICC must be happy to see Pak in the next round hoping Pak to face India in semis...

Positions are based on the Net run rate if the points are equal

Ali is correct. NRR comes into picture when teams are tied on points. Same as goal difference in soccer.
