VICTORIA, Australia (TheSportsNEXT) September 28, 2012: A quirk of the scheduling system is that it is based on rankings from a year ago, not on who finishes 1st or 2nd in each group and hence we have a situation where all of the unbeaten sides (Australia, India, Pakistan and South Africa) are in the same super 8 group, with only 2 of them going to make the quarter finals, while the other group features the 4 sides that have all lost a match (England, Sri Lanka, New Zealand and West Indies).
