ICC Champions Trophy 2017: Qualification scenario for each team

India

In the second match, Virat Kohli and co. were beaten fair and square by Sri Lanka

India started their 2017 ICC Champions Trophy campaign by beating their arch-rivals Pakistan by 124 runs in their first group B game at Edgbaston. The victory margin was too high that India received a big boost by getting an NRR of +3.02.

In the second match, Virat Kohli and co. were beaten fair and square by Sri Lanka and put themselves in a spot of bother. The loss also made sure that their NRR took a hit as it came down to +1.272 going into their final group game.

For India should qualify,

If India beat South Africa: India will qualify for the semis

If India lose to South Africa: India will be knocked out of the tournament

If India vs South Africa ends in a washout: India will go through irrespective of the result in Sri Lanka vs Pakistan on the virtue of having a better NRR
