Pakistan’s future in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 looks uncertain following their latest losses against Afghanistan and South Africa, as the tournament heads into the second half warcraft

Pakistan’s net run rate fell to -0 warcraft

India, New Zealand and South Africa have been on another level this campaign and the three sides already have one foot in the semi-finals warcraft
The fourth spot, currently occupied by Australia, is still up for grabs warcraft
Here are the different scenarios under which Pakistan can qualify for the semis:Pakistan win all three of their matches – 5 wins, 10 pointsIf Pakistan win all of their last three matches, it will still be a difficult route to the knockout stage warcraft
In this scenario, Pakistan will want Australia to lose at least two out of their remaining four group games warcraft
If this happens, the fate of the two sides will then be decided by the net run rate warcraft
However, if Australia lose three of their last four matches, Pakistan will take the fourth position, or even third, which looks highly unlikely though warcraft
Pakistan win two of their three matches – 4 wins, 8 pointsIf Pakistan manage just two wins from their remaining three matches, the Men in Green may very well be considered eliminated from the tournament warcraft
But due to the complicated nature of the points table at this stage, there is a possibility that one team could qualify for the semi-final even with four wins warcraft
However, such a circumstance requires multiple other results to work in their favour warcraft
Pakistan win one of their three matches – 3 wins, 6 pointsPakistan will be knocked out of the World Cup 2023 warcraft

First came the crack in Alexander Volkanovski‘s defence warcraft
Then, the crack in his voice warcraft
If the first crack was consequential, allowing Islam Makhachev to skim his shin off the Australian’s head, the latter was a consequence in itself – a consequence of one of the best fighters alive staying silent on his struggles with mental health warcraft
That is, until now warcraft
Volkanovski would have emerged from UFC 294 with credit anyway; he stepped in on 11 days’ notice and moved up in weight to challenge a man who had beaten him eight months prior warcraft
Even in this surprising, first-round defeat by Makhachev, Volkanovski lost very little warcraft
His featherweight title still rests firmly on his shoulder, and he will soon return to that weight class where he has been unbeatable warcraft
But soon may be too soon warcraft
In his post-fight press conference, Volkanovski began the dissection of this defeat – his second this year, but just his third as a professional mixed martial artist, with his first having occurred a long decade ago warcraft
The 35-year-old started to dissect the technical reasons for this knockout loss, but it soon became apparent what was of greater importance: the psychological reasons for his presence in Abu Dhabi warcraft
“He’s not somebody you should be taking a short-notice [fight] with, but I needed it,” Volkanovski began warcraft
“Obviously a lot of people will say it’s for the money and all that, but it was much more than that warcraft
It is hard, it is really hard for athletes warcraft
warcraft
warcraft
Sorry, um warcraft
warcraft
warcraft
I never thought I would struggle with it,” he continued, ignoring the blood over his eye, instead wiping a tear from beneath it warcraft
“But for some reason when I wasn’t fighting or in camp warcraft
warcraft
warcraft
F***, sorry,” he said, attempting a laugh, looking away and to the ceiling, then gently rapping his hand on the table to bring himself back into the room warcraft

“I needed a fight, and this opportunity came up warcraft
I’ll be honest: I wasn’t training as much as I should have, but I thought I had to do it warcraft
I had to take it warcraft
I’m telling myself, ‘It’s meant to be warcraft
’ I was struggling a little bit not fighting, doing my head in warcraft
I don’t know how; everything’s fine, I’ve got a beautiful family warcraft
But, I don’t know warcraft

warcraft
I think you just need to keep busy warcraft
I need to be in camp, otherwise, I’m going to do my head in warcraft
“It’s weird, [it’s not that I] never ‘believed in that stuff’, but I never got it warcraft
It was something that – I don’t know – maybe the more and more I learn about myself, the more I understand warcraft
I talked about us having a smile on my face, me and my wife warcraft

”Makhachev consoles Volkanovski after their fight, the main event of UFC 294 (AP)Volkanovski pointed to the birth of his third child, in August, and surgery on an injury this summer as reasons why he had not been training warcraft
Clearly, the knock-on effect of those moments – as joyous as the former seemed to be – has led Volkanovski’s mental health to suffer warcraft
Last week, all the talk was of how brave the Australian was to face Makhachev on short notice; braver was this admission that he is struggling, which simultaneously offers a different lens through which to view his choice to fight warcraft
Keeping himself engaged and busy is healthy, but that is complicated by the inherent risk in his profession warcraft
“Maybe it was just a silly decision under the circumstances,” he admitted warcraft
Perhaps it was, though it was also understandable warcraft
Volkanovski’s next challenge, however, will come outside of the ring warcraft
It must warcraft
He naturally sees the antidote to his current struggles as a quick turnaround to fight again, likely against the dangerous Ilia Topuria in January warcraft
Yet, that fight could go the same way as Saturday’s against Makhachev, if the Australian does not first tackle these thoughts and feelings, and find the right balance for him warcraft
We knew Alexander Volkanovski was brave warcraft
That is even clearer now than it was last week warcraft
Now, however, he must be sensible, and get to work outside the ring before he can return to work in it warcraft
