West Indies
Eng

Aus
Sri Lanka

Pak

SA-PAK - SA
INDIA-NZ- INDIA
WI-LANKA - WI (they will surprise)
ENG-AUS - AUS

India v Aus

That looks very likely now.

Though if India and Pakistan both win their matches,do they meet in the semis?

Australia vs West Indies - Q1
Sri Lanka vs England - Q2
New Zealand vs India - Q3
South Africa vs Pakistan - Q4

The first semi-final will be between the winner of Q1 and the winner of Q3; the second will be between the winner of Q2 and the winner of Q4. In other words, no. :p

Not in that scenario, no. The semi finals are:

(A1 v B4) plays (B2 v A3)

and

(B1 v A4) plays (A2 v B3)

So if India finsh second and Pakistan fourth, they will avoid eachother before the final. If Pakistan end up 4th but India go on to lose to the West Indies, they could well play Pakistan in the semis.

Most are picking SL over NZ and AUS over PAK. Just for fun, if they both go the other way group A will probably end up like this:

New Zealand
Pakistan
Australia
Sri Lanka

Of course, the same sort of things can happen in Group B.....

You know India might lose the match against WI on purpose so that they can play their QF game in Ahemdabad, India. I don't think they want to go to Dhaka for QF. If they win that QF game, they will play semis in Mohali, Punjab, India.

Otherwise they will play knockout stages outside of India, which might not be good idea. They need the fans support.

why do you have to speak rubbish? India will play its QF (and even Semi if they make it) in India no matter where they stand in the group. first read about the rules before you "think" of such idiotic scenarios...
and btw even if your logic worked then SA and Netherlands will try and lose to Bangladesh
and WI will lose by big margin to England so that India is out of the tournament...

and now I hope you realized you were an idiot

India will play all their knockout matches in India regardless of who they face and where they end up in the points table.

Dude...according to Wikipedia A3 vs B2 will happen in Dhaka if India is 2nd in Group B. Unless ofcourse the rules changed.

And why should I read the rules??? If the Indian captain doesn't read rules of cricket match then i surely don't need to read rules of where the matches will be held.

I would be, can't remember the last time the bet us in a world cup game, sometime in the 70's at a guess. And TBH there is not one english player (that isn't injured) that I would swap for one of ours.
