The Pakistan Cricket Team’s journey in the T20 World Cup 2024 hangs in the balance. Their shocking loss to the USA in the opening match has significantly hampered their chances of reaching the Super 8 stage.
With a potential early exit looming, a defeat in their upcoming match against India could force them to play qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.
The format for the T20 World Cup sees 20 teams divided into groups, with only the top two from each group progressing to the Super 8 stage. Pakistan’s loss to the USA puts them in a precarious position in Group A, which includes India, Canada, and Ireland.
Their next match against India on June 9th is crucial. A loss in that match will leave them with immense pressure to win their remaining matches and hope for favorable results elsewhere in the group.

Adding to the challenge, the USA, currently leading Group A, could further complicate matters for Pakistan. If the USA wins their upcoming matches against India and Ireland, they will solidify their position and potentially eliminate Pakistan from contention.
Pakistan’s only hope lies in combining their victories and favorable results in other Group A matches. They need to win all their remaining games and hope that the USA loses at least one of theirs.
