The team has won only one of the three matches played. Now they have to face India in their next match, against whom they will have to put in every possible effort to win. Also, to reach the playoffs, Canada will not only have to win this match but also have to keep the margin of victory big so that their currently minus net-run rate (0.439) can be corrected.
