<h2><strong>Pakistan out of T20 World Cup</strong></h2>

<p>Expecting Ireland to win against the USA in Florida, Pakistan’s hopes were dashed when the match was called off without a ball being bowled. The result meant that the USA surged to five points from their four matches while Ireland opened their account on the points table. However, Pakistan were the biggest loser&nbsp;on the night as they were unable to catch the USA on five points. Pakistan, even if they win against Ireland on Sunday will only reach a maximum of four points.</p>

<h2><strong>Another big name bows out</strong></h2>

<p>Pakistan will join Sri Lanka and New Zealand to get knocked out of the T20 World Cup. Like Pakistan, Sri Lanka’s fate was also decided by rain when their match against Nepal was called off, leading to points being shared. New Zealand on the other hand will have themselves to blame after&nbsp;losing&nbsp;to Afghanistan and the West Indies. England could also join the big trio if Scotland beat Australia in their final group game.</p>

<p>So far six teams have secured qualification to the Super 8 stage of the T20 World Cup including India, the USA, Afghanistan, South Africa, West Indies and Australia. India will be paired with Australia, Afghanistan and most likely Bangladesh in the Super 8 stage.</p>

<p>The USA qualifying for Super 8 is the seventh instance of an associate team progressing from the group stage&nbsp;to the Super&nbsp;8&nbsp;in T20 World Cups after Ireland (2009), Netherlands (2014), Afghanistan (2016), Namibia (2021), Scotland (2021) and the Netherlands (2022).</p>
