I think the odds are even lower. Realistically Australia needs to lose to both Afghan and Sri Lanka for the other teams to have any chance. And either Sri Lanka and Afghanistan need to win all their games from now and their net run rate isn’t good also.

Why is India's so low?
CWC 2027There will be 14 teams next time, and the Super League has been abolished.
You're supposed to moan about the World Cup every day but also keep watching every game anyway while moaning about how bad the game is.I remain to be convinced by Australia. And SA could yet lose to Pakistan. Let’s moan about dead games if and when they are dead rather than moaning about them
based on assumptions as to what will happen. Without checking the odds, I reckon there have been 6 games where the bookies’ favourites from the match have lost: NZ V Eng, Eng V Afg, SA V Ned, Afg V Pak, SL V Eng. Out of 25 matches that’s a decent amount. So I don’t know why we’d assume we know exactly what is going to happen. Certainly not enough to get angry about it before it happens ffs
I meant BangladeshAus has already beaten SL
Well we don’t know, and may not know for another week, which is why the talk of too many dead rubbers is immature.Will it take 6 wins to get into semi's, or will 5 wins be enough? If it's 5 wins then technically all 10 teams are still in it.
That’s an interesting question: per my superficial googling, some people think it comes from the card game “rubber bridge.” However, that card game is a relatively new invention and some sources date the phrase all the way back to the 16th century and the origin seems to be unclear.where does dead rubber come from? weird term. australia v nz in the living rubber.
Joke?Why is India's so low?
Not less than 5 runs I assumeAnyone know how much NZ needs to be bowled out for so that AUS go to #3? Thinking AUS need to win by about 40 runs so get them out for 345 should do it
