Group 2: Pakistan, New Zealand, England and Sri Lanka
Will India vs Pakistan play in semi-final?
The biggest question for cricket fans is whether a semi-final match is possible. Mathematically, there are two main situations:
- Condition A: If India finished first in its group (Group 1) and Pakistan finished second in its group (Group 2).
- Position B: If India finished second in Group 1 and Pakistan topped Group 2 (first).
With India currently undefeated and their run rate excellent, they are likely to top the group. Pakistan, on the other hand, will have to beat the top teams in their group to stay in the race for the semi-finals.

If both the teams advance by defeating different opponents in the semi-finals, we could see India vs Pakistan in the T20 World Cup final. The last time these two teams clashed was in the final of the first T20 World Cup in 2007, where India registered a historic victory.
