World Cup group stage after 37 years
So far, apart from India, Australia, South Africa, West Indies and Afghanistan have confirmed their place for the next round. On the other hand, a big team like New Zealand has been eliminated from the race of Super-8. The Kiwi team has been eliminated from the group stage for the first time in the history of T20 World Cup. This T20 World Cup has proved to be nothing less than a nightmare for the New Zealand team. On the other hand, this is the first time since 1987 that the New Zealand team has been eliminated from the group stage in the ICC’s white ball tournament. Earlier, in the 1987 ODI World Cup, New Zealand had to face elimination from the group stage.
T20 World Cup 2024 was a complete flop
The New Zealand team is in Group C. Currently, it is at the bottom of its group. It has played 2 matches so far and has faced defeat in both the matches. New Zealand played its first match against Afghanistan. In this match, its entire team was out for 75 runs in 15.2 overs due to which it lost the match by 84 runs. After this, it faced West Indies. The team’s condition was also bad in this match. West Indies scored 149 runs while batting first in this match and then the Kiwi team could score only 136 runs at the loss of nine wickets.
Both teams of Super-8 decided from Group C
Apart from New Zealand, Group C has teams from Afghanistan, West Indies, Papua New Guinea and Uganda. Thus, Afghanistan and West Indies have qualified for the Super-8 from this group. This means that all the other teams will be eliminated from this tournament after playing the remaining matches of their group stage.
