The Pakistan team was eliminated from the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 after the match between the United States of America (USA) and Ireland was abandoned due to rain at Lauderhill in Florida.
With both teams sharing one point each, the fate of the Babar Azam-led Pakistan team was sealed on Friday.
As a result of the washout, the USA qualified for the Super 8s of the tournament for the first time.
This marks the first time in the history of the shorter format that Pakistan has been knocked out of the T20 World Cup in the group stage.
The Men in Green began their campaign with a shocking defeat to the USA on June 5 in New York.
They then faced India on June 9 and were defeated by six runs, making it two consecutive losses in the T20 World Cup 2024.
Chasing a target of 120, Pakistan’s batting order collapsed in the middle, resulting in a six-run defeat.
While Babar Azam’s men triumphed over Canada in their third game, they were relying on Ireland to beat the USA, who were placed second in Group A with two victories in their previous three games.
Pakistan will play their last group-stage game against Ireland on June 16.
