T20 World Cup 2026: Will Team India be out of Super-8? West Indies' run rate was not there, some bowler had economy.

T20 World Cup 2026 Points Table: After defeating Zimbabwe, West Indies' run rate is on fire. His run rate has touched new heights. They have now become the top team in the points table of Group A. There is now a big difference between its run rate and that of second placed South Africa. In the points table of Group A, the run rate of West Indies looks as if it is the economy of a bowler. The run rate of West Indies is more than 5 and this news is not good for the health of Team India because the Indian team is in danger of being out of the Super-8.

West Indies' run rate on fire

Now, first of all, let us see where the run rate of the Caribbean team, which badly crushed Zimbabwe in the Super-8, has reached? After defeating Zimbabwe, West Indies became the top team by defeating South Africa in the points table of Group A. The run rate has now become 5.35. The points between him and South Africa are only 2-2. But there is a big difference in run rate between the two. West Indies' run rate of 5.35 looks like a bowler's economy. Whereas South Africa's run rate is only 3.8.

Team India is in bad shape in the points table of Super-8

The only benefit for Team India from West Indies' victory over Zimbabwe is that it is no longer at the bottom of the points table of Group A in the Super-8 of T20 World Cup 2026. But the danger of being out of Super-8 still remains on his head. The run rate of the Indian team is -3.8 after losing the first match of Super-8 against South Africa. South Africa had defeated India by 76 runs. But Zimbabwe's defeat was even bigger. Zimbabwe lost by 107 runs, after which its run rate has become -5.35.

How is Team India in danger of being out of Super-8?

Now the question is that how is Team India in danger of being out of Super-8? In fact, after the huge victory of West Indies, it has become necessary for India to win its next two matches at any cost. India has to play matches against Zimbabwe on 26 February and West Indies on 1 March. Apart from winning these two matches, Team India will also have to convince South Africa to win its match against West Indies on 26th February. If this does not happen, then there will be a problem regarding the net run rate, due to which it may be difficult for Team India to reach the semi-finals.
