Afghanistan and Ireland deserve to go into the quarterfinals over England, Bangladesh and West Indies.

And this is the reason i wont mind IND losing if this allows IRE entry in Quarters. 😆😛 Really hope UAE v WI is a washout. AFG should have won v SL but jaya was just too experienced for AFG bowlers. One more year with consistent top level cricket for AFG and they will surely be no 9/10 with IRE being no 8/9.

I'm hoping India loses too (although by a small margin and only due to some spectacular bowling from Ireland - don't want India to lose its form). Ireland would actually give some fight in the quarterfinals. They can take out Pakistan, West Indies etc and I reckon would give a good fight to New Zealand (given Ireland is #4 in this group).
