Will pakistan be eliminated if they lose to India..!?

As the India-Pakistan match in the Champions Trophy is set to be held tomorrow, will pakistan be eliminated from the series if they lose to India? What are the chances for that team? Let's take a look at this. The Champions Trophy series, in which 8 countries are participating, is going on in pakistan and dubai in full swing. 2 matches in Group A and one match in Group B have been completed. In the first match of the Champions Trophy, pakistan lost to new zealand by 60 runs. As for the indian team, they are confident after bowling out bangladesh in the first match.

As these two teams are set to face each other tomorrow, this is a life-or-death game for Pakistan. If they lose, the team will have to pack up. As for the Champions Trophy, there is no room for mistakes. Even a single defeat can lead to the team's elimination. That is the situation that pakistan is currently stuck in. If we look at Group A, new zealand is currently at the top with two points. india is in the second place with two points. New Zealand's run rate is in a better position at +1.200. India's run rate is +0.408. What is notable about this is that bangladesh, which lost to india, is in a better position than pakistan in terms of net run rate.
That is, Bangladesh's run rate is -0.408. At the same time, Pakistan's run rate is much worse than this at -1.200. pakistan still has two matches left. A match against india tomorrow and a match against bangladesh on february 27. In this, if pakistan loses in the indian match and new zealand beats bangladesh in the match to be held on february 24, pakistan will be out of the Champions Series. At the same time, if pakistan beats india tomorrow, that team will have a chance to continue in the series. If this happens, the India-New Zealand match will become important. At the same time, even if pakistan loses to india, the semi-final chance is still a little tight for Pakistan. Then pakistan will need the help of india and Bangladesh. That is, if the indian team and bangladesh defeat new zealand, pakistan will get a semi-final chance. india has a high chance of defeating New Zealand. But we have to wait and see whether bangladesh will defeat New Zealand. bangladesh only lost to india after giving some competition.

What will happen?

Since anything can happen in cricket, if pakistan loses to india, all their attention will be on bangladesh in the new zealand match. It is noteworthy that if bangladesh wins this match, pakistan needs to defeat bangladesh in their own match.
