ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8 Qualifying Teams

T20 World Cup 2024 has entered the Super 8 stage, where many surprises can happen. After the early exit of top cricket teams like Pakistan and New Zealand, the tournament showed a different flavour to the whole world

Many new teams have joined the T20 World Cup 2024 Quarter Finals. Let's check out the top eight teams of the T20 World Cup 2024 and predict their chances to reach the top four.

USA

The USA played outstanding cricket in their first-ever T20 World Cup. After the start of the tournament, this team demolished Bangladesh in 3 match series by 2-1. At the start of the T20 World Cup, this team showed a promising beginning to their T20 World Cup career. After beating Canada and, especially, the former champion, Pakistan, this team reached the top 8 in the T20 World Cup in 2024.

In its 3rd game against India, this team showed excellent fight but unfortunately lost that match in the last moments. The USA has been placed in Group B of the top 8 teams and will play against England, the West Indies, and South Africa. Although the group seems difficult for the USA, after looking at the quality of cricket in the USA, it seems like this team will give a tough time to all its group members.

Bangladesh

Bangladesh has booked their ticket for the top 8 teams after a real struggle in the T20 World Cup 2024. Bangladesh eventually reached the top four after winning close matches and unfortunate losses. It would be a great achievement for Bangladesh if they managed to get a place in the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup 2024.

In the recent couple of editions of T20 World Cups, Bangladesh could have performed better, but they have a strong team that can win any match. However, due to a lack of knowledge to tackle pressure situations, they only won a few matches in World Cups. Bangladesh has to climb Mount Everest to get a place in the top-4 of the T20 World Cup 2024. In Group A, Bangladesh will face formidable competitors like India, Australia, and Afghanistan, which have topped their respective groups to reach the top 8.

Afghanistan

Another deserving team from Group C, Afghanistan, made its spot clear for the Top 8 from its starting game of the tournament. In the second game, Afghanistan defeated one of the most disciplined teams of ICC events, New Zealand, by a considerable margin of 89 runs. Afghanistan has an excellent mixture of experienced and new players, which puts on a good show for its qualification in the top 8.

After Afghanistan's performance in the early stages of the tournament, it will be no surprise if they manage to book their spot for the T20 World Cup 2024 Semi-finals. Afghanistan will face India, Australia, and Bangladesh in Group A of the Top eight, which can threaten the Afghanistan team.

South Africa

South Africa also played excellent cricket and managed to book its spot in the T20 World Cup 2024 after finishing table topper in Group D. Group D was relatively easy for South Africa. Still, the excellent performance of all its Group members made it difficult for South Africa to win all the matches. South Africa won against Nepal by only one run, and this crucial match was so tight that the Nepal team's batsman got run out at the last ball of the game by the closest of margins, and eventually, Nepal was unfortunate at the end of the game.

South Africa will face England, the USA, and the West Indies in Group B of the Top 8. If South Africa continues to dominate as it did in the early stages of World Cup 2024, it can increase its chance of reaching the semi-finals after a long wait of 10 years.

West Indies

The two-time champions of the West Indies have developed their game very much during this World Cup. In the last two World Cups, West Indies did not bring the craze to the T20 World Cup that they brought in recent editions. This time, West Indies knocked over one of the best teams in world cricket, New Zealand.

West Indies will compete against the USA, England, and South Africa in Group B of the Super 8. If West Indies continues to play like they did in Group C, they have a high chance of revising the memories of the 2012 and 2016 T20 World Cup.

Australia

Australia has been unstoppable in the recent 3-4 years in World Cricket. They have managed to get their hands on every ICC triumph in the last three years, which shows their dominance in world cricket. Winners of the 2021 T20 World Cup, Australia topped group B with four wins. They have placed in Group A of the T20 World Cup 2024 top 8. In Group A, they will face Afghanistan, India and Bangladesh. Looking at the group, Australia has a straightforward chance to advance to the final 4 of the T20 World Cup 2024.

England

Defending Champions, England entered at the last moment of T20 World Cup 2024 top 8 from Group B. After having the first washout and second loss, England was also in real trouble with getting a place in the top 4. However, with excellent performance against Oman and Namibia, England placed its position in Group B with full authority.

In Group B, England will face the USA, West Indies, and South Africa, which seem like a lesser-skilled team than England. Therefore, England has a high chance of qualifying for the Top four of the T20 World Cup 2024. But it is going to take a lot of work, like eating cake. England has to be very disciplined with their cricketing skills to advance to the top four of the World Cup 2024.

India

India is the favourite team for the T20 World Cup 2024 and is playing to its full expectations. After being the topper of Group A, India has been placed in Group A. In Group A, they must beat Afghanistan, Australia, and Bangladesh, making it easy for India to book their place in the T20 World Cup 2024 Semi-finals.

However, it will be challenging for India to become a semi-finalist in that World Cup because Australia and Afghanistan have played their group matches in the West Indies, which can be a problem for India. However, if they manage to access the conditions quickly, then India will be able to reach the semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2024.
