Posted on: June 12th, 2009 Super 8 Groups and Fixtures

How were the groups decided?

The top two ranked teams in each group are seeded 1 and 2. They will retain this seeding for the Super Eights stage, irrespective of whether they finish first or second in their group, unless they are knocked out by team 3 in their group. In this instance, team 3 replaces the position of the team they knock out. For example, South Africa won Group D and New Zealand came second, for the purposes of the Super Eights, NZ will still be A1 and SA will be A2. West Indies qualified instead of Australia, so West Indies became C1.

A1 - India
A2 - Ireland
B1 - Pakistan
B2 - England
C1 - West Indies
C2 - Sri Lanka
D1 - New Zealand
D2 - South Africa

Groups:

A1 - B2 - C1 - D2
India - England - West Indies - South Africa

A2 - B1 - C2 - D1
Ireland - Pakistan - Sri Lanka - New Zealand
