Australia, on the other hand, cemented their semi-final spot on the basis of their net run rate. They reached the target of 158 with 22 balls still remaining in the last game against the West Indies, which ultimately got them a semi-final ticket. With 4 wins and a loss, they finished second in the Group 1 standings with 8 points. David Warner will be the key man for them.
