New Delhi: Friday is going to be a very important day in the ICC T20 World Cup. The name of a team reaching the semi-finals from Group 1 will be almost certain. The two matches that are going to be played in which one will be a match of host Australia. Winning this match is very important for the team. If the team wins, then it will remain in the race for the semi-finals, if it loses then it will be out.

The league matches of the T20 World Cup are about to end but so far the names of the semi-final teams have not been decided. There is more confusion in Group 1 as the matches of England and New Zealand with the hosts here were washed out due to rain. Now the decision will be made only after the last match. On Friday, New Zealand’s team has to play against Ireland while Australia will face Afghanistan.

The first match of the day
New Zealand’s team has the best chance of reaching the semi-finals at this time. The team is on 5 points after playing 4 matches with 2 wins and 1 match getting washed out due to rain. They have to face the team of Ireland. This team has upset England by defeating but there is little hope of it happening with New Zealand. So with a win, the team will cement its place in the last four as its net run rate is better than everyone else. According to Indian time in Adelaide, this match is to be played at 9.30 am.

The second match of the day
The hosts will go to play against Afghanistan where they are expected to get tough competition. Australia’s team is struggling with the problem of an injured player and if they land without the star players, then the problems can increase. Even after the victory against Afghanistan, the team will have to pray for England’s defeat in the match between England and Sri Lanka as their net run rate is better than the hosts. Even if Sri Lanka defeats England, then it will reach only 6 points while Australia’s team will reach 7 points after winning over Afghanistan. This match is also to be played in Adelaide. It will be played according to Indian time at 1.30 pm.
