A constant skirmish among the current top four teams on the ICC Rankings table has urged fans to contemplate on which teams will be marking their place in the 2023 World Cup semi-finals. While India is the only unbeaten team in the tournament yet, New Zealand and South Africa are no less owing to the way they are playing to seal a spot in the semi-finals. However, we will have to wait and watch for the team to finish fourth in the table. It is going to be quite interesting to witness how all the teams will fight back in the tournament to secure a place in the semis.
Shikhar Dhawan’s evaluation
Well, former Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan took to his official Twitter handle to evaluate the performance of the current top four teams, and to estimate the possibility of any other team stealing Australia’s spot leading the way into the semi-finals. Dhawan remarked that “Every World Cup match is reshaping the points table, with India, SA, and New Zealand securing their spots in the semis. Now, the spotlight is on the race for the 4th spot, demanding keen attention to net run rate. Will be shocking if one of India-NZ-SA doesn’t qualify for SF. What do you guys think?
