Only one second-placed team will qualify for the semi-finals.
Due to Indonesia and Myanmar's withdrawals, Group B is left with only two teams. Thus, the second-placed team from Group B will not be included to determine the best runner-up team.
Result against fourth-placed team in Group A was not considered for this ranking.
