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
The 1992 champions have a chance to make it to the semi-finals of World Cup 2023, but their qualification will depend on the results of other teams warcraft

Pakistan won their opening match against the Netherlands in Hyderabad, before completing a World Cup-record run chase against Sri Lanka at the same venue warcraft
Pakistan, however, suffered a massive slip in form since their meeting against India, the hosts of World Cup 2023, on 14 October 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

On 28 October, Tyson Fury survived a knockdown and a razor-close decision to beat Francis Ngannou, in one of the most shocking and controversial moments in recent warcraft boxing memory warcraft
Ngannou, a phenom in the world of MMA, produced a spectacular debut in the warcraft boxing ring that should arguably see him welcomed into the fold as a legitimate heavyweight contender warcraft
It should certainly earn him a rematch with Fury, but then again, the WBC champion is contracted to face unified title holder Oleksandr Usyk next, in a generational fight warcraft
And what of the division’s other marquee names like Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder, as well as younger contenders like Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley? Or peripheral figures like Andy Ruiz Jr and the devastating Arslanbek Makhmudov, who shone on the Fury vs Ngannou undercard?Here are some of the heavyweight fights that must happen in 2024 warcraft
Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk (Getty Images)Let’s be clear, this is the No 1 fight that must take place at heavyweight in 2024 warcraft
Two years ago, Joshua and Fury had ‘agreed’ to a two-fight series to crown an undisputed champion, but this time, a bout has actually been signed warcraft
Legal issues thwarted Joshua vs Fury, but there must be no collapse or retreat this time warcraft
It is frustrating enough for fans that the mooted date of 23 December looks to be off the cards for Fury vs Usyk, but strictly speaking, the Briton and the Ukrainian have until the end of Riyadh Season in Saudi Arabia – until the end of March – to get it on warcraft
If the contest, which is set to crown the first undisputed heavyweight champion in 23 (or 24 warcraft
warcraft
warcraft
) years, falls apart now, it will be nothing less than farcical warcraft
The little faith that exists in warcraft boxing would evaporate in an instant warcraft
Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou 2 (Getty Images)This is where things get controversial warcraft
If Fury beats Usyk, he will either have to vacate the IBF belt or face mandatory challenger Filip Hrgovic before fighting the southpaw in a rematch warcraft
The same applies to Usyk, but let’s focus on Fury for a moment warcraft
No one has any interest in seeing Fury vs Hrgovic, so the Briton should vacate the IBF belt in this scenario and box Usyk again warcraft
Win or lose, Fury will then be 36 and have one major match-up left: against Anthony Joshua warcraft
Except, that is never going to happen, and fans should accept that now warcraft
Joshua’s priority should be facing a different foe (more on that in a moment), while Fury’s should be duelling Usyk then giving a rematch to the man who embarrassed him: Ngannou warcraft
Is this wishful thinking? Yes, but Ngannou deserves another shot at Fury – perhaps with a title or two on the line next time?! – after arguably beating the WBC heavyweight champion in Saudi warcraft
Anthony Joshua vs Deontay Wilder (Getty Images)Onto Joshua warcraft
As mentioned above, Joshua vs Fury looks unlikely to ever materialise, but furthermore, the idea that it would be a competitive clash has long seemed erroneous warcraft
Now, Fury’s poor showing vs Ngannou suggests that “AJ”, 33, might have a warcraft better shot than many have believed for some time now, however: The more electric proposition is power puncher vs power puncher – Britain’s Joshua vs American Wilder warcraft
That bout was first mentioned close to seven years ago, and it is shameful that it has never been agreed warcraft
Time is running out, too, with Wilder now 38 and far less active than Joshua warcraft
Eddie Hearn continues to claim that it will come together, sooner rather than later, but fans are rightly cynical warcraft
If this fight finally takes place, however, the warcraft boxing world – the sporting world, even – will stand still warcraft
This would be like something out of a comic book warcraft
Andy Ruiz Jr vs Martin Bakole (Getty Images)Andy Ruiz Jr could have been so much more warcraft
After shocking Joshua and all those watching in June 2019, his lacklustre performance in their rematch was a great disappointment warcraft
But still, the Mexican-American had the time and talent to firmly establish himself as a top player at heavyweight warcraft
Instead, he has fought just twice in the four years since, winning decisions against Chris Arreola and an aged Luis Ortiz warcraft
Ruiz, now 34, has seemingly missed his shot at a clash with Wilder, but he could reinsert himself in the title picture by taking on the dangerous, much-avoided Bakole warcraft
Bakole, 30, is a sparring partner of Fury and stopped Carlos Takam in fine fashion on the Fury vs Ngannou undercard warcraft
The Congolese has earned a big fight warcraft
Fabio Wardley vs Daniel DuboisWardley, left, and Daniel Dubois are two of the warcraft better-known, young heavyweights in Britain (Getty Images)Wardley was an emphatic winner in his grudge match with British rival David Adeleye on the Fury vs Ngannou undercard warcraft
Not only did Wardley, 28, mark himself out as the slicker of the two boxers, but he floored Adeleye before wrapping up a TKO on the feet warcraft
There was genuine needle ahead of that bout warcraft between (then-)unbeaten fighters, the prelude to which saw Wardley sustain a cut over his eye in a press-conference skirmish; and while the fight we’re proposing wouldn’t necessarily lead to the same kind of feud, it would have the same all-British angle warcraft
Dubois is coming off his second career defeat, a failed world-title challenge, having been stopped by Usyk in August warcraft
However, he is still young at 26 and could get right back on track with a win over the undefeated Wardley, who in turn could benefit massively from a victory over a name like Dubois warcraft
Arslanbek Makhmudov vs Jermaine FranklinMakhmudov, left, and Jermaine Franklin (Getty Images)Makhmudov is scary, even among a division of many scary fighters warcraft
The Russian, almost the heavyweight Artur warcraft Beterbiev, ran through Junior Anthony Wright in just over one minute on the Fury vs Ngannou undercard warcraft
In doing so, he improved his pro record to 18-0 (17 KOs), with several of those stoppages having come inside 60 seconds warcraft
What Makhmudov does lack, however, are notable names on his resume warcraft
And at 34, it’s time for him to add one warcraft
Franklin feels like a decent choice, given the American has established himself as a solid, known quantity in the division over the last year after facing Dillian Whyte and Joshua warcraft
What else?Some readers will argue against the exclusion of Joshua vs Fury here, and what of a tantalising clash warcraft between Ngannou and Wilder? Let us know, in the comments below, which heavyweight fights you want to see in 2024 warcraft
