India take on SL today.

Will you be supporting India?

The best chance for Pakistan to qualify is

a) India beat SL
b) India beat SA
c) Pakistan beat SL
 
a) SL beat Ind
b) SA beat Ind
c) Pak beat SL

Pakistan & South Africa Qualify :misbah :amla

Just kidding - yea the option in OP is Pakistan's best chance of making it through to the semi.

Let's see what happens!
 
actually SL winning gives us a better chance.
We have to win against SL anyways so if SL wins today we will directly qualify by beating them. But if India then it might come to net RR later even if we beat SL.

Erm??

If SL win today, all we have to do is beat them and not worry about the SA vs Inda game.
 
No, if anything doesn't the group open up better if Sl Wins ??

After that Pakistan just have to win their final game.

I would support Sri Lanka anyway.
 
I think supporting SL is better today so that our destiny rests in our own hand. I fear India would lose to South Africa in case we are depending too much on them, so its a big risk depending on that result. On the contrary, if Sri Lanka can beat India I would be very apprehensive about our chances beating them.
 
Woah! that is getting tough if you think it deeply. I change my opinion, I want to face a deflated Sri Lanka and hope that India trashes South Africa out of it.
I dont know what will help us better. Its better to not follow this game and directly see the end result and then hope for the best.
 
If Sri Lanka win today, do we still have a chance to go through?

Even if Sri Lanka lose, but India beat SA, we beat Sri Lanka,then Pakistan and India go through. We will also get a chance to redeem ourselves in a potential final against the arch rivals :mv

If Sri Lanka win today and we beat Sri Lanka, we are going through no matter what the result of Ind, SA is. 2 virtual quarter finals. One of Ind/SA will be eliminated :yk
 
Makes little difference this game. The India vs South Africa game will determine the standings and whether SA or Pak will go through.

Disagree with the OP though. If India lose, that's best for us. Sri lanka will notch up a win. And then all we have to do to qualify is to beat sri lanka. As only two teams will be on two wins (Pakistan and India or SA). Actually makes things better for us. If India win, we will be reliant on India beating SA to qualify regardless of the result against Sri Lanka (unless it's an absolute thrashing, but at this point unlikely). It's very unlikely we can qualify via run rate now.

Can't see India losing here though.

If it does come to that situation, I wonder how India will play. Remember in 2009 champions Trophy I feel we took it easy on Australia until at the end where suddenly we put in more effort and nearly clinched the win. India thrashed WI but wasn't enough and Aus even if they didn't win, the run rate was kept close enough that both Pak and Aus would qualify regardless who won.

Still feel a bit guilty about that match, I don't think we turned it on because Pakistan were hoping India would be out. Was wrong of us. Hope India wont do the same, but at the same time probably in India's best interest for us to qualify, as India beating us in tournaments is pretty easy for them these days. While SA could actually be more of a problem.
 
Srilanka is not going to beat India today without the help of "Rain" (at the most), that's for sure!
 
I'll be supporting SL, cant get myself to support India

What happens if it's rain affected?
 
No, It will be better for Pakistan, if Sri Lanka wins today as then we will only have to beat them to qualify for Semi Finals.
 
India better score 350 today as SL is playing with 7 batsmen. So you never know but I am supporting SL to win this one.
 
An Indian victory makes it harder for Pakistan. So sorry parosis can't support you here.


:salute
 
If India win today then I will be supporting them against SA. Then Pakistan can be in semis even if last game is washed out.
 
No hoping for a Lankan win. We will get essentially 2 knockout games with a Sri Lanka win.
 
This is a great result for pakistan if srilanka pull it off but it still doesnt mean much as if our gme is washed out we go out. Only a win against srilanka is needed now
 
Such a stupid thread. Asking on a Pakistani cricket forum "Will you be supporting India (who happen to be our arch rivals against Sri Lanka" (while this win for Sri Lanka has actually made it easier for Pakistan to qualify).

What's the next question, would you pay £1000 for a first class flight or go on it for free?
