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 2027
South Africa and Zimbabwe (co-hosts) along with the top eight teams in the ICC ODI rankings will qualify directly for the competition, while the remaining four spots will be decided by the 2026 Cricket World Cup Qualifier. Although Namibia will co-host the competition for the first time in their history, they will not be guaranteed a spot because they are not a full ICC member, and as a result they will have to go through the standard qualification pathway.
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.
If it's 6 wins required then only five teams are still in it, the top 4 (SA, IND, NZ, AUS) and the winner of SL vs AFG on Monday. This basically makes that game an elimination as loser can't get 6 wins

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.

Well we don’t know, and may not know for another week, which is why the talk of too many dead rubbers is immature.

The Wheel is Forever
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.

SL can still qualify. Need 3/4 wins. Same for Afg:
Winner of SL v Afg on Monday will have a chance...
NZ could lose 3/4 remaining games and find themselves in NRR battle for 4th or Aus could lose 2/4 and find themselves clinging to NRR with just 5 wins.
So dead rubbers are still a week or so away at least.

For instance, if NZ loses to Aus and SA and then wins vs Pak. They'd be on 5 wins with a game to go vs SL.
if SL can win vs Afg and say they lose to India and then win vs Ban, they'd be on 4 wins with a game vs NZ left to play.
So NZ v SL game on 9th Nov could become a virtual quarter final
(especially if NZ loses by a decent margin vs Aus/SA and/or SL wins big vs Afg-Ban).

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
