Team standings with some interesting equations

How the teams stand in the HunFord Open:

With the major chunk of matches getting over, the teams are looking forward at the semis of the two events in the HunFord open starting next week. But still we have 2 day of tennis left for the league matches which in itself promises to bring a lot of excitement. So how do the teams stand with 2 days of tennis more to go?

We start with Event 2. Group C has finished all its matches and we already have the semi finalist from group C. After winning both their league matches, Supriya and Nagesh finish at top, while Shaunak and Prajeet after their victory over Swamy and Vinit have registered the second place for semis from Group C.

Vinu and Apurva sealed their berth in semis winning both their league matches and finishing at the top of group D. This means Shaunak / Prajeet now face Vinu and Apurva in one of the semis.

With once more crucial match to go in group D, the second spot is still for sale. Mayank/Noble and Aditya/Sonu need to fight it out for this place on Friday and winner of this battle face Nagesh and Supriya for the second semifinal of event 2.

The more the number of teams in a group, the more complex scenario they present to you and this is what Group A and B have in store for you. Tanmay and Lopa can make this very simple by winning their last match of group A. This would mean Tanmay and Lopa finish at the top, while Ajeet and Vinayak finish second in this group ensuring the semi final berth for both these teams. But Soppin and Harpal can spoil their party by beating Tanmay and Lopa and making the scenario a bit complicated. The key then would be the score by which they defeat Tanmay and Lopa. Interestingly, a 6 – 3 victory of Soppin / Harpal over Tanmay / Lopa sees both these teams through to semis, while Ajeet / Vinayak can just feel a bit unlucky. A score worse than 6 – 3, i.e. 6 – 4 or above, would mean Soppin / Harpal even though they win the match but would not be able to make to semis as Tanmay / Lopa and Ajeet / Vinayak would have better win / lose ratio. Similarily a 2 – 6, 1 – 6 or a 0 – 6 loss by Tanmay / Lopa would show them the exit door. Interesting this seems like and IPL run rate calculation .
Considering the current form of Raj / Sampath and Nishanth / Kanchan, they should be through to the semis. However, Rebecca and Akhil can still spoil their party after clinching a crucial victory over Rajesh and Malini. With still 3 more matches to go for group B, there is a lot at stake for these teams to play for.
So guys the Game is still on….
