New Zealand’s victory against Sri Lanka has made it difficult for Pakistan to qualify for the semi-finals of the World Cup.

Pakistan will be playing its next match against England on Saturday.

These are the possible scenarios in which Pakistan can qualify:

1-First priority is to win the toss which is not in their hands.

2-If they win the toss and bat first, they should make a mountain of runs to defeat England by 287 runs, for example:

If Pakistan makes 300 runs they should restrict them to 13 runs.

If they make 400 runs they should restrict them to 113 runs.

3-If Pakistan loses the toss and bowls, first they would have to restrict them to 50 runs and chase it down in 2.3 overs or restrict them on 150 and chase in 3.4 overs which is almost impossible.
