Babar Azam-led Pakistan finally got off the mark in the T20 World Cup with a seven-wicket win over Canada, in New York, on Tuesday (June 11). In a 107-run chase, Pakistan rode on Mohammad Rizwan's 53* after Mohammad Amir's 2 for 13 restricted Canada for 106/7. With this, Pakistan keep their T20 WC hopes alive and have a bleak chance of reaching the Super 8. However, they are at the mercy of Florida's not-so-promising weather ahead of their final game versus Ireland, on Sunday (June 16).

It is to be noted that Florida will host three matches in Group A&nbsp;comprising Pakistan. Pakistan will, thus, face Ireland at the Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground in Lauderhill, Florida on Sunday and need full points to proceed ahead, along with some other favourable results. However, the weather forecast isn't ideal in Florida for the upcoming games.&nbsp;

If rain plays spoilsport for Pakistan, Babar &amp; Co. will be knocked out of the 20-nation tournament. At present, they only have two points&nbsp;with a Net Run-Rate of +0.191&nbsp;following defeats versus USA and India along with a win versus Canada.&nbsp;

So far, Florida has hosted only one game in the tournament. On Tuesday, Nepal and Sri Lanka's face-off got washed out at the Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground in Lauderhill, Florida where not even a single ball was bowled (without a toss). In fact, the officials called off the match more than two hours before the cut off time for a 5-over contest. Thus, Pakistani fans will hope for a major turnaround in Florida's weather for the upcoming days and pray for their side's win to enter the next round.

T20 World Cup: Pakistan’s Super 8 chances at the mercy of Florida weather! Here's why

It will be a do-or-die contest for Pakistan in the T20 World Cup as they&nbsp;take guard&nbsp;against Canada on Tuesday (June 11) at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. The contest will be key for the Men in Green who could face elimination from the tournament if results go against them. Even a washout could see their chances get affected, with both India and the USA benefiting from the same. Here are the details on why a washout favours India and the USA in the T20 World Cup.

<h2>India, USA in pole position</h2>

As things stand, before the Pakistan-Canada match, India and the USA occupy the top two spots with four points each and are in pole position to enter the Super Eight stage. Pakistan can only reach a maximum of four points in the group stage even if they win their remaining two matches. However, if rain plays spoilsport as it did during their match against India, then they will be on the brink of elimination.

Points will be shared in case the Pakistan-Canada match ends in a washout, meaning Pakistan will have one point after three matches and could reach a maximum of three points even if they beat Ireland in their final group match. With three points, Babar Azam’s men will be unable to catch both India and the USA in the points tally and thereby will face elimination.

A defeat for Pakistan against Canada will also see them getting knocked out of the group stage with one match to go. This result also means that Canada will give themselves a good chance of reaching the Super Eight. However, a washout will mean they could also reach only a maximum of five points and will need a helping hand to reach the Super Eight.

<h2>What happens if India-USA match ends in washout?</h2>

In case the&nbsp;India vs USA match on Wednesday ends in a washout, then also Pakistan face elimination. With the match assumed to be washed out, both India and the USA will attain five points each after three matches as points will be shared. This will mean that&nbsp;Pakistan and Ireland won’t be able to finish in the top two and get eliminated. In case, Pakistan beat Canada and the India-USA match ends in a washout, the trio of Pakistan, Canada and Ireland will get eliminated with one match still to be played.

It will be a do-or-die contest for Pakistan in the T20 World Cup as they take guard against Canada on Tuesday (June 11) at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.
