Which team will miss out on the Champions Trophy?

[Shady Slim]

Definitely - especially if there is no Steyn, Duminy, AB and Morkel. In fact I'd call Bangladesh favourites

Steyn targets another WC, could cut short Bangladesh tour | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo

kyle whatsit is arguably a better ODI bowler presently as per the WC - though form is temporary and class is permanent etc

South Africa can lose to Bangladesh in Bangladesh in ODIs. It is going to be bloody hot when they play. Bangladesh has quality players.

If ABD alias the new God plays for SA in the series, Bangladesh won't win..

lol @ people thinking Bangladesh have a chance against SA

From cricout

1-First of all Pakistan have 3 matches against Zimbabwe and 5 against Sri Lanka.
2-Bangladesh have 3 against India and 3 against South Africa.
Scenario 1:
If Bangladesh win one ODIs each against India and South Africa, they will have 91 points and will keep their No. 8 rankings intact till September 30. Which means Bangladesh will qualify for the Champions Trophy. The results of Pakistan matches won’t matter in that case.
Scenario 2:
If Bangladesh win 1 of their six home matches, they have to depend on Zimbabwe or Sri Lanka to do them a favor. In this scenario, if Pakistan lose one game against Zimbabwe or Sri Lanka, they will miss out their Champions trophy spot and Bangladesh will qualify.
Scenario 3:
If the Bangladesh lose all six ODIs, still they can qualify. Then, Pakistan need to lose twice from their eight games. But any defeat against Zimbabwe will hurt Pakistan’s chances immensely and their loss will be Bangladesh’s gain.
At the end, West Indies wont play any ODIs in next three months so there chances rely heavily on Pakistan and Bangladesh Performance and their results.

Bangladesh comfortably up to no7 no (91 points) - good to see.

That doesn't look like they're confirmed yet...but it looks likely.

Pretty much a lock that Pakistan will drop games in Lanka, so Bangladesh are virtually through already. I hope Pakistan lose just one game against Lanka, putting them and Bangladesh through, leaving WI out.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

sucks for WI not to having a game in next three months or so

 

[OverratedSanity]

sucks for WI not to having a game in next three months or so

Serves them right if they miss the Champions Trophy because of them abandoning that 5th ODI in India.

 

[Sarun]

WI could have invited Ireland.

 

[cricman]

Down to WI and Pakistan now

 

[harsh.ag]

Voted for Pak a while back. Looking gooooddd

 

[Sarun]

Think SL and Pak series would be decided by 1 game (unless rain played the spoiler) so Pak might be out (as they probably need to win by more than 1 game).
