B2 means the team that finishes second after the group B matches and D1 is the team that finishes first after group D matches! So, it's not necessary that D@ will be India and D1 Pakistan.
So, it could be Sri Lanka Vs Pak,WI Vs Pak, or WI Vs India. Provided of course, that bangladesh, Bremuda, Zimbabwe or Ireland don't cause an upset. ;)

It is like this. two teams who qualify for the super eight stage from a group would be given 1st and 2nd position according to their ranking as on march 2005 ( According to ICC ). So india will remain B2 even they top their group as india was below SL as on mar'2005

Team names for the Super Eight stage are indicative based on the top two teams from the Group Stage qualifying. If these two teams do qualify they will be seeded in position 1 or 2 as specified regardless of whether they finish first or second in their group. For example, if South Africa wins Group A and Australia comes second, for the purposes of the Super Eights, South Africa will still be A2 and Australia will be A1. If, for example, Scotland qualifies instead of Australia, Scotland will become A1

Thanks Sandeep. This will also help. But I was looking for wallpaper. Thanks anyways...Cheers
Lots and lots of posts on this message board convey the fact that people are not only grossly misinterpreting whats being written here, but are also ridiculing rediff. Well, guys (those of you who dont understand): A1, A2, B1, B2 are just labels. The teams that will fit those labels are already decided and does not depend on the standings at the end of Pool stage. India will be B2 irrespective of the fact that they finish first or second in the group. However, if they fail to qualify, then the "B2" tag will go to the other team that will qualify in its place.
This is done just to help people, television producers and sponsors to predict and plan when and whom their team would be playing in the super eight stage if it qualifies.

Man it is almost confirmed that India will play Pak on the same day. Except(this probability is very very rare) if either of minnos manage to beat India and then become one of the top 2 team in the league, then India will come back home. thats why India is definetely going to play Pak Cheers
