How can Afghanistan reach semifinals of ODI World Cup 2023?

The Hindu  

First, here is how the points table looks after match No. England 6 1 5 2 -1.652 Remaining fixtures: AUS and SA The Afghans kept their chances of making the semifinals with a thumping seven-wicket win over Sri Lanka and they went on to beat Netherlands with a similar fashion. If either Australia or New Zealand loses two or more games, Afghanistan will advance to the top four. However, two losses would require New Zealand to lose all three and Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and the Netherlands to get less than eight points for Afghanistan to qualify. Assuming it loses to both Australia and South Africa, here are the results Afghanistan needs to stay in the hunt: NZ vs PAK - PAK ENG vs AUS - AUS IND vs SA - IND/SA BAN vs SL - BAN AUS vs AFG - AUS ENG vs NED - ENG NZ vs SL - SL SA vs AFG - SA AUS vs BAN - AUS ENG vs PAK - ENG IND vs NED - IND Here, New Zealand and Afghanistan end up on eight points, and the team with the superior net run rate will advance.
