Australia Cricket: The group stage of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 is now in its final stage. With this, the picture of the Super 8 stage is becoming clear. Let us tell you that the top 2 teams of all four groups will get entry into the Super 8 stage. Australia has confirmed its place in the next stage by winning the match against Namibia on Wednesday. But in the meantime, Kangaroos captain Mitchell Marsh is in danger of being banned. He has been accused of conspiring against the England team. Let us know what is the whole matter?

England's life is in Australia's hands

Actually, both Australia and England are in Group B. The Kangaroo team has already made it to the Super 8. In such a situation, even if they lose their last match of the group stage against Scotland, it will not make any difference to them. But this will shatter England's dream of reaching the Super 8.

England currently has only 1 point in their account. In such a situation, even if they win their next two matches against Namibia and Oman, they will have a maximum of 5 points. At the same time, Scotland still has 5 points in their account and they have to play their last match against Australia. If they win it, they will have 7 points in their account and they will easily get a ticket to the next stage.

Josh Hazlewood made a big statement

After winning the match against Namibia on Wednesday, Australia's fast bowler Josh Hazlewood surprised everyone by making a big statement. He said that if England reaches the Super 8, they may face Australia again and then his team may have to face defeat. In such a situation, he would like England to be out of the tournament. Since this statement of Hazlewood, this matter is being discussed in the cricket world.

Captain will be banned

If the Australian team tries to eliminate England by manipulating the result of the match against Scotland, then their captain Mitchell Marsh can be banned. Marsh can be charged under Article 2.11 of the ICC Code of Conduct. This rule has been made to prevent manipulation in an unfair strategic or tactical manner. If a team intentionally loses a pool match during the tournament and this affects the position of the other team, then the captain can be banned. There is also a provision to impose a fine of 50 percent of the match fee on him.
