Of them, Saurashtra will play Tamil Nadu, while the three others will wait for the pre-quarter-finals to find out their opponents.

They will be joined by Jharkhand, who finished third in Group C with 20 points. Hyderabad, third in Group A, also had 20 points, but Jharkhand pipped them on net run rate (+1.064 to +0.513).
