South Africa, England, West Indies, Australia, Sri Lanka, and Zimbabwe progress from Groups B and C.
The teams will play two matches in the Super Six stage against their opponents from the corresponding group who finished in a different position in their group.That means India (toppers of Group A) will face off against New Zealand (second position in Group D), and Nepal (third position in Group D).
The top two sides from the two Super Six groups will then progress to the semifinal stage.The two semifinals are scheduled to be held on 6 and February 8.The final is set to take place on February 11, with all three knockout games set to take place in Benoni.
