However nothing from the group stage will go into the Tremendous Eight stage. That’s, even when a crew wins all of the matches and goes to the Tremendous Eight with an important internet run price, they won’t get any benefit. Australian pacer Jos Hazlewood didn’t like this. So he raised questions concerning the format and internet run price of this yr’s World Cup.
Hazlewood stated, ‘It is extremely unusual that the online run price within the group stage is not going to be of any use within the subsequent spherical. It is most likely the primary World Cup I’ve performed in that format and set-up. A bit totally different from different World Cups.’
“No matter you’re employed laborious for within the early rounds, even in the event you’re unbeaten, you could have an important internet run price, that will not depend within the Tremendous Eights. It is a actually bizarre format. That is what is going on on this World Cup.’

Their internet run price elevated to three.580 within the massive win. However they won’t get any of those advantages in Tremendous Eight. Hazlewood’s remorse about this yr’s World Cup is there.
