The marking A1& A2, B1& B2 etc are based on the rakings of the teams. As per the group B Rankings: Srilanka(#1), India(#2), Bangladesh(#3), Bermuda(#4).
Lets see few combinations:
If SriLanka and India qualify for super8 no matter who stands first in the group , Srilanka will be B1 and India will be B2.
If India and Bangladesh Qualify: India will be B2 and Bangladesh will take position of Srilanka: B1
If India & Bermuda qualify: India will be B2 and Bermuda will take position of Srilanka: B1
If SriLanka and Bangladesh Qualify: SriLanka will be B1 and Bangladesh will take position of India: B2
If Srilanka & Bermuda qualify: SriLanka will be B1 and Bermuda will take position of India: B2
If Bermuda and BanglaDesh Qualify: Bangladesh will be B1 as its ranked 3 in group and Bermuda will be B2 as its ranked #4.
