This was applicable in all stages of the tournament. The bowl - out was used to determine the result of only one game in this tournament -- the Group D game between India and Pakistan on 14 September ( scorecard ). Within each group ( both group stage and Super Eight stage ), teams were ranked against each other based on the following criteria : Higher number of points If equal, higher number of wins If still equal, higher net run rate If still equal, lower bowling strike rate If still equal, result of head to head meeting.

After the match ended in a tie, the winner was decided out of a bowl out. India won the bowl out and qualified for the Super 8s as a result of this match. Super 8s This tournament 's Super Eight format was designed such that the top 2 seeds from each group was pre-decided at the start of the tournament. The actual performance of the team in the Group Stage played no role in determining if the team qualified into Super Eight Group E or F. For example, in Group C, though Sri Lanka finished with more points than New Zealand, for the purpose of the Super Eight groupings, New Zealand retained the group 's top seed position ( C1 ) while Sri Lanka retained the group 's second seed position ( C2 ). In case a third - seeded team qualified ahead of the two top - seeded teams, it took on the seed of the eliminated team. This only happened in Group A, where Bangladesh ( original seed A3 ) qualified ahead of West Indies ( original seed A2 ) and therefore took on the A2 spot in Group F. The other seven top seeds qualified. The eight teams were divided into two groups of four teams each. The two top teams from each Super Eight group qualified for the semi-finals.
