Kolkata Knockout Scenarios

The Win Scenario: An outright win of any margin will take India to 4 points, securing their qualification.
The Rain Factor: While the forecast is currently clear (34°C during the day, cooling to 26°C), a washout would be disastrous for India. Since there is no reserve day for this fixture, a “no result” would see both teams share a point. In this case, the West Indies (+1.791 NRR) would advance over India (-0.100 NRR) based on their superior Net Run Rate.
