  • Pakistan’s Super Eight journey has been below-par and their solitary point came from a rain-affected match against New Zealand
  • Pakistan have to beat Sri Lanka by 64 runs or chase down the tournament co-hosts in 13.1 overs to advance into the semifinals

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan will take on Sri Lanka in their must-win Super Eight clash today, Saturday, at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in a bid to reach Twenty20 World Cup semifinals.

New Zealand failed to clinch a place in the T20 World Cup semifinals when they lost to England by four wickets on Friday, leaving Pakistan a last chance to qualify.

Pakistan have to beat Sri Lanka by 64 runs or chase down the tournament co-hosts in 13.1 overs to advance into the semifinal stage.

“A Kandy contest to savour as Pakistan strive for a #T20WorldCup semifinal spot and Sri Lanka aim to end their campaign on a high,” read a post on T20 World Cup’s official X account.

Pakistan’s Super Eight journey has been below-par and their solitary point came from a rain-affected match against New Zealand. England have already qualified but completed their Super Eight stage three-for-three unbeaten.

The match will begin at 630pm Pakistan time.
