No Ind-Pak Semis

Once England beat Pakistan by two wickets, it was clear that India and Pakistan will not meet in the final four stage. As per the tournament's pre-decided seedings, the toppers of Group 1 will take on the runners-up of Group 2 in the first semi-final. And, the winner of Group 2 and the runner-up from Group 1 will take part in the other semi-final. England have topped their group, which means Pakistan would take on the winner of Group 1, which will certainly not be India after their loss against South Africa. 

In fact, if India finish runner up in their group, they would take on England. Pakistan have one more Super 8 game to go and that is against Sri Lanka. On the other hand, India will take on Zimbabwe and West Indies in their remaining two Super 8 games. The Men in Blue are primed to win both their remaining Super 8 games.
