    heres the rules for the tiebreaker should we finish level with the windies for 4th

    The team with the most wins in the Group matches will be placed in the higher position.

    If there are teams with equal points and equal wins in the Group matches then in such case the team with the higher net run rate in the Group matches will be placed in the higher position (refer to 21.10.5 below for the calculation of net run rate).

    If following the net run rate calculation above there are teams which are still equal, then the team with the higher number of wickets taken per balls bowled in the Group matches in which results were achieved will be placed in the higher position.

    If still equal, the team which was the winner of the head to head match played between them will be placed in the higher position.

    In the highly unlikely event that teams cannot be separated by the above this will be done by drawing lots.

    Given the healthy NRR that the windies have at the moment, it is unlikely we'll qualify ahead of them should we match them on points/wins.

    They could get hammered by England/India bringing the NRR into equation, but its a long shot.

    Well if we beat the Windies and the Netherlands and the Windies lose the rest of their matches then we will finish on 6 points and they will finish on 4. It really all comes down to Ireland v West Indies.
