In Group-A, still many group matches are balance, so it’s difficult at this stage to say about who will qualify for Semi’s. However in Group-B, the situation is quite interesting. The fight to qualify for Semi’s is majorly between CCD, SHM and FCC. All these three teams are looking forward to play their last league match. For CCD & SHM it will be a Do or Die match to stay in tournament. To keep at top of the table FCC also must be ready with their game plans.
