Group A Group B Group C Group D
India (1) Pakistan (2) Australia (3) New Zealand (4)
Bangladesh (8) England (7) Sri Lanka (6) South Africa (5)
Ireland (9) Netherlands (10) West Indies (11) Scotland (12)
The teams in the Super Eight will be designated as A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 C2, D1, D2 depending on which group they qualified from. If the top two seeds from a group qualify, they will be seeded 1 and 2 respectively for the Super Eight regardless of which team actually finished first and second in a group during the first round.
For example, if Bangladesh are first and India are second in Group A, Bangladesh will still be A2 while India will remain A1 for the Super Eight because India were seeded 1 while Bangladesh were 8. However, if the third seeded team in the group knocks out a higher seed, it will take the place of the knocked-out opponent. For example, if Bangladesh and Ireland qualify from Group A, then Ireland will be A1 for the Super Eight stage. If India and Ireland qualify, then Ireland will be A2.
During the Super Eight, the teams will be split into two groups of four - A1, B2, C1 and D2 are in the first group, while A2, B1, C2 and D1 are in the second. Each team will play the others in its pool with the top two from each group qualifying for the semi-finals.
- If two teams in a group have equal points at the end of the super8, the one with more wins will be placed higher.
- If they have equal points and the same number of wins, then the team with the higher NRR will be ranked higher.
- Should net run-rate also fail to separate the sides, then the one with the higher number of wickets taken per balls bowled in the stage will be preferred.
- And if the teams remain in a deadlock, then the winner of the group match between the sides will prevail.
- If all of the aforementioned tie-breakers fail, the teams will be separated by drawing lots.
