Who will lead the table?
by Abhay T on Mar 22, 2007 04:03 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

It is where clear that India's chances are now purely based on Ind-SL match. But, if India beats Srilanka, what will be the basis for selecting the group leader? Will India automatically become the leader as India beats SL. Or will be it be purely based on NRR?

When there is a tie on points ranking will be based on NRR.

Abhay,

even if India would have won all the matches they would have been B2. The group order will remain the same as how ICC arranged before the world cup based on ICC rankings. It will not change based on group performances. If there are any upsets then the minnows will replace the good teams like how pakistan is replaced by Ireland.
