After the embarrassing defeat against America and India in the T20 World Cup 2024, Pakistan got its first win against Canada in the last match. This victory has kept Pakistan’s hopes of reaching the Super-8 alive. But the weather in Florida has increased the tension of the team at this time. In fact, due to floods in Florida, an emergency has been declared in Fort Lauderhill.

The matches in Florida are scheduled to be between USA vs Ireland on June 14, India vs Canada on June 15 and Pakistan vs Ireland on June 16. Heavy rain is predicted in all three matches. If Pakistan’s match against Ireland is cancelled, the team may have to face heavy losses.

If USA vs IRE match is cancelled then Pakistan will be out of the tournament

India has confirmed its place in the Super-8 by defeating USA by 7 wickets in the last match. Only one team from Group-A, either Pakistan or USA, can reach the Super-8. USA is currently second in the points table with two wins in three matches and 4 points, while Pakistan is third with one win in three matches and 2 points.

USA is going to play its last match of the group stage round against Ireland on 14 June in Florida. If the team wins this match, it will reach the Super-8. On the other hand, even if the match between USA and Ireland is cancelled, Pakistan will be out of the T20 World Cup and USA will reach the Super-8.

After the match is cancelled, both Ireland and USA teams will get 1 point each. In this case, America will have 5 points. And even if Pakistan wins its last match, it will have only 4 points. In this case, the team will not be able to qualify.

This is how Pakistan can reach Super-8

Even if America loses the last match against Ireland, the team’s hopes of qualifying for the Super-8 will remain alive. The team just has to pray that the Pakistan-Ireland match gets cancelled due to rain. On the other hand, Pakistan will also have to pray that Ireland defeats America. And by winning the match against Ireland, they can reach the Super-8 on the basis of net run rate.
