Delhi: In the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, the semi -final race of Group B is getting exciting. On February 25, the match between Australia and South Africa was to be played in Rawalpindi, but the match could not start due to bad weather and finally the match has been canceled due to heavy rains, after which both teams have 1- 1 point was given. Now the question is that if this match is drawn due to rain, then what will be the math of Australia and South Africa reaching the semi -finals?
So far, both Australia and South Africa have won one match in the Champions Trophy 2025. Both have one point each, in which South Africa ranks first and Australia in second place. After the cancellation of this match, both teams have got one point each and they are made in the top-2 with three points. South Africa’s net run rate is better than the Kangaroos and is in the first place, while Australia is second.
Subsequently, Australia has to play their last group match against Afghanistan on 28 February. If the Kangaroo team wins this match, it will reach the semi -finals directly with 5 digits. But if Australia loses this match, it will have to depend on the performance of other teams to go to the semi -finals.
If Australia loses to Afghanistan, the Kangaroo team’s net run rate may be affected. In such a situation, he will have to expect that England should register only one win in the remaining two matches. Also, South Africa will have to defeat England. In this situation, England and Afghanistan will remain at 2 points, so that Australia can make it to the semi -finals.
On the other hand, South Africa has to play their last league stage match against England on 1 March. If the green jersey team manages to win it, then it will make it to the semi -finals. However, it will be quite interesting to see which two teams will enter the final-4 from this group.
