The battle for the four semifinal spots went on till the final day of the Group 2 fixtures of the Super 12, with South Africa's surprising loss to the Netherlands confirming India's place ahead of their game against Zimbabwe. This paved the way for Pakistan, who survived a spirited Bangladesh to reach the semis for the sixth time in eight editions of the T20 World Cup, joining Group 1 table-toppers New Zealand and runners-up England.
For New Zealand and England, the equations were simple given they had both lost a match each — win their respective matches. Both teams had the same points -- 7 -- as hosts Australia, but a debilitating 89-run loss in the first game of the season for the defending champions meant that their Net run rate was well below that of England and New Zealand.
Here is the full schedule of the two semifinal matches:
New Zealand vs Pakistan in Sydney on Wednesday, November 9 at 1:30 pm
India vs England in Adelaide on Thursday, November 10 at 1:30 pm
