I agree in theory, but it isn't definitive. You could have 3 teams tied on the same points, same head to head, so you would need to go to something else after that.
Yes, they sold tickets for the semis and the final alongside the regular matches, applications closed over a year ago. There will be returns on the official ticket site as people work out who is playing who. It's case of constantly refreshing, looking for availability.
The Windies have performed well below par in this world cup. Before the tournament began a lot of pundits were tipping them to push for fourth spot at least. Their overall approach has been too casual.
Yes, it can only be proportional representation because there isn't any profiling happening. But nine times more India supporters in England than England supporters in England wanting match tickets? Surprising.
I'm a Blackcaps supporter so had a lot of success in the ballots. A lot of my England supporter friends applied for tickets across a variety of matches and the ballot allocated precisely NONE. England matches are invariably harder to get tickets to, yet the Indian's and Pakistanis do somehow...
How is it that the Indian supporters are able to hoover up all the tickets? It's not like England fans aren't ticket savvy. The Pakistan game was the same.
