[ad_1]
The Pakistan National Cricket Team is on the brink of group-stage elimination in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 following losses to the United States (USA) and India. Pakistan’s chances to advance to the Super 8 stage hinge on the upcoming match between the United States and the India National Cricket Team.
The Rohit Sharma-led team will take on the United States of America at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Wednesday, June 12. Both teams remain unbeaten in the ongoing T20 tournament. The winner of the upcoming match will advance to the Super 8 stages of the marquee event.
The United States of America started their World Cup campaign by defeating Canada in their first match. The Monank Patel-led team then beat Pakistan in a Super Over to secure their consecutive wins. The co-hosts are currently in second place in the five-team table with four points and a net run rate (NRR) of +0.626.
The Rohit Sharma-led team occupies the top spot in the table with a superior net run rate. The Men in Blue recorded a comfortable victory against Ireland in their T20 World Cup 2024 opener. The Indian team successfully defended a 119-run target against their arch-rivals Pakistan in their second match of the event.
What Happens if India-USA World Cup Match Gets Washed Out
The upcoming match between the United States cricket team and the Indian cricket team is crucial, as the winner will secure a spot in the Super 8. Meanwhile, the loser of the match has to win their final group stage match. However, rain might disrupt the match at the Nassau County Stadium in New York.
If the match is abandoned due to rain, both teams will earn a point each. In this scenario, India and the USA would advance to the next round with 5 points each, while Pakistan’s chances would diminish. Pakistan would have only 4 points, even if they win against Ireland in their final group-stage match.
Pakistan secured a crucial victory over Canada after losing to the USA and India in the T20 World Cup. Similarly, Canada will face a similar situation with India. Canada is in fourth place in the Group A table with two points and a net run rate of -0.493, while Ireland sits at the bottom of the table with zero points.
If the match between India and the United States of America is canceled due to weather, the campaigns of Pakistan, Canada, and Ireland, who cannot score more than 4 points, will come to an end in the T20 World Cup 2024. Fans of India and the United States of America would hope for uninterrupted action in New York.
