ICC changes rule midway through T20 WC

The ICC has amended the seedings offered to the teams and now the group standings will determine whether Bangladesh will face the teams of Group 1 or Group 2 on qualification.

The (ICC) previously announced that Sri Lanka and Bangladesh will play the teams of Group 1 and 2 respectively if they qualify for the Super 12s, irrespective of their group standings in the first round.

But it has changed the rules midway through the tournament.

“On Super 12 qualification – the teams that finish top of the standings in Group A and Group B will take the position of A1 and B1 in the Super 12s.”

“Therefore A2 and B2 will be taken by the second-place teams in each group respectively. It is not done on Round 1 group seedings,” a media advisory published yesterday said. (Agencies)
