Following their defeat against India, Pakistan faces the threat of elimination from the T20 World Cup. Pakistan has slipped to third place in the Group A points table and must win its next match to reach the Super Eight stage. India, on the other hand, topped this group and advanced to the Super Eight. Interestingly, India also has one match remaining.
India's Biggest Win Over Pakistan
The Indian team performed brilliantly against Pakistan in the T20 World Cup. India defeated their arch-rivals by 61 runs in the match played in Colombo. India scored 175 for seven in 20 overs, led by Ishan Kishan's half-century. Pakistan were all out for 114 in 18 overs. This is India's biggest win by a margin of runs against Pakistan in T20Is. India surpassed its 2012 record for most runs won against Pakistan in T20Is. This is India's biggest win against its arch-rival. Previously, India had defeated Pakistan by 11 runs in the shortest format of the game, but now the team has surpassed this record after 14 years and set a new standard.
Group A Points Table Status
Pakistan's defeat was so severe that the team fell below the United States in the Group A points table. Pakistan has slipped to third place with four points from three matches, with two wins and one loss. While the United States has fallen to second place with four points from four matches, with two wins and two losses. Pakistan must win the match against Namibia at all costs to qualify for the Super Eight. India has maintained its dominance at the top of Group A with six points after three wins from three matches.
Can Namibia pull off a major upset?
The United States has played all four of its matches in Group A and is currently in second place behind India.
Pakistan's loss to India has dealt a blow, as it must now win its final match at all costs.
Pakistan's final match will be against Namibia on February 18th. India and the Netherlands will also play on the same day.
It is almost certain that the team that will advance to the Super Eight from Group A will be either the United States or Pakistan.
The Netherlands has two points, and if it wins its final match, it will have four points.
If Namibia defeats Pakistan, Pakistan will remain in third place with four points, ending its journey in the group stage. Net rain rate will also play a key role in this process.
If India wins against the Netherlands, the United States will remain in second place and advance to the Super Eight.
If Pakistan wins against Namibia, it will have six points, and the United States will be eliminated from the tournament. Even if the match between Pakistan and Namibia is washed out due to rain, Pakistan will still be able to advance to the next round.
