Mumbai: Almost a month into the 2019 ICC World Cup, we have seen major upsets and others that almost happened. For a tournament that was thought to be smooth sailing for a few of the ten teams, all teams have been tested thoroughly at some point. The past week alone gave us enough surprises to set aside all biased thoughts for what is yet to come at the ICC World Cup 2019.

These top three teams are most likely to go into the semi-finals-

1.    New Zealand (11 points from 6 matches)
Teams yet to face- Pakistan, Australia, England

2.    Australia (10 points from 6 matches)
Teams yet to face-England, New Zealand, South Africa

3.    India (9 points from 5 matches)
Teams yet to face- West Indies, England, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka

These teams are still fighting for the fourth spot-

4.    England (8 points from 6 matches)
Teams yet to face- Australia, India, New Zealand

5.    Bangladesh (7 points from 7 matches)
Teams yet to face- India, Pakistan

6.    Sri Lanka (6 points from 6 matches)
Teams yet to face- South Africa, West Indies, India

7.    Pakistan (5 points from 6 matches)
Teams yet to face- New Zealand, Afghanistan, Bangladesh

West Indies, Afghanistan and South Africa stand no realistic chance of making it to the Semi-Finals due to their low score on the points table.
