Pakistan (212/8) crash out of T20 World Cup 2026 after a narrow 5-run consolation win against Sri Lanka (207/6) in their last Super Eight clash

[Ramsay]

Just one more wicket. Pakistan are back in this.

 

[shah9425]

Need wicket of shanka and pawan

 

[Major]

Bowled him. Pakistan are still in the game.

SL - 101/5 (12 overs).

47 from 48 (Pakistan's equation).

Lol no they are not. Semi spot is gone now. Sri lanka will cross over 47 runs easily

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Tariq to get smashed in the last 2 or will he make a comeback?

 

[KingKhanWC]

Lanka the land of hospitality

 

[mango_bite77]

47 off 48, now please keep attacking field and dont let them take easy singles. Let them take risk

 

[JattMaula]

Srilanka is on course with their script

THey have been good stuntmen since 2011.

 

[jnaveen1980]

4 batsmen got bowled

 

[Devadwal]

They won't score 147. Likh ke le lo . 143 ke around all out honge

 

[Josh]

I think Lanka is also playing for 148 only

They should have a super over ..of Lanka gets out for 148

 

[Kianig89]

We have mucked it up even after 200+ .

 

[LongHorn]

That out was very suscpicious lol, if I was NZ I would be angry at Liyanake

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

Shadab hiding in difficult situation

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

45 more to defend, 5 wickets left
Game on

 

[globetrotter]

Lanka is new minnow of asia

 

[chinaman00]

They are missing a slip. At least two wickets missed.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Tariq to get smashed in the last 2 or will he make a comeback?

You have to back him to clear the tail .

Rathnayake hopefully goes for glory

 

[Hyder]

Quarter final at stake. Agha g has no emotions no proactive approach. Just blowing bubble balloons. Not what u need from your captain atm.
We are behind you now you are captain. Just show us you got this

 

[Major]

I think Lanka is also playing for 148 only

Paisey kum milay hai. Maqvi negotiating

 

[Kianig89]

Agha is an uninspiring timid and insipid as Captain , Harsh words but that's what it is

 

[ads101]

Honestly if Sri Lanka go for the win here we win this comfortably lol as they’ll just have to slog out. But they won’t.

Only a few more wickets left though, we can bowl them out.

 

[shah9425]

Misfield

 

[rpant_gabba]

Lol no they are not. Semi spot is gone now. Sri lanka will cross over 47 runs easily

Keep the faith. The cheque will clear.

 

[Asif321]

Imagine if they get 150 all out gosh

 

[Deewana Mastana]

You have to back him to clear the tail .

Rathnayake hopefully goes for glory

He isn't getting much spin

 

[JaDed]

The police guy is like get out of here gore

 

[hamzie]

Lol Sri Lanka playing for the same target as us hahahah

 

[Hyder]

We needed tariq for the tail ig

Hope he gets a wkt here though

 

[shah9425]

Tariq so far disappointment

 

[mango_bite77]

Naseem at shot midwicket

Brain needs to be studied

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Agha is an uninspiring timid and insipid as Captain , Harsh words but that's what it is

That description goes for the entire team

 

[Devadwal]

Imagine if they get 150 all out gosh

Chill. Match is already decided. Pakistan vs South Africa semifinals ki tayari Karo.

 

[JaDed]

42 from 44 for kiwis

 

[KingKhanWC]

Shah sleeping in the field.

Catches will come domt drop

 

[Rana]

Tariq clearly is a defensive bowler, he doesn’t like to force the issue

 

[gazza619]

Sufiyan Muqeem would have been handy here. Wish he was Saqi’s damaad

 

[ads101]

Apart from abrar, we’ve been appalling in the field and bowling. And yet still we could well win this. Shows just how bad Sri Lanka have been this innings frustratingly.

 

[CricVet]

Usman needs to mix the pace..trying to bowl every ball 2 slow to use the slowness of the pitch

 

[sweep_shot]

SL - 106/5 (13 overs).

42 from 42 (Pakistan's equation).

 

[Kianig89]

We lacked a plan as bowing unit sadly, the field placings have been awful. Agha planning was all to restrict SL below 147 . The baffoon did not realised if they bat 20 overs they will easily pass 147

 

[Rana]

Sri Lanka ain’t even trying to win

 

[Hyder]

They arent going for the win. Just trying to mess with our qualification

 

[jnaveen1980]

When batsmen don't attack Usman looks a bit off. I think on flat decks he will be hammered

 

[Kianig89]

Though SL is gifting wickets to keep us interested

 

[saabir]

Look alike Srilanka not going for win. They are playing to spoil the pakistan,s party ..that's strange strategy

 

[Devadwal]

Agha is an uninspiring timid and insipid as Captain , Harsh words but that's what it is

NAQVI is captain of today match.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Let’s

Don't cheat on your friends with PP.

Haha.
We had some great conversations on many topics but in between i sneak out to check scores

 

[KingKhanWC]

He isn't getting much spin

Not giving air .

When he does …

 

[Hyder]

Sri Lanka ain’t even trying to win

Exactly. They just targeting 147 lmao

 

[shah9425]

Cmon idiots show some energy

 

[Rana]

What’s the point?

They need 14-15 an over and they are not even trying

 

[KingKhanWC]

Afridi must return …

 

[sweep_shot]

Rathnayake has a very weird stance. But, it is effective against spinners.

 

[Hyder]

Had we scored 240.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Exactly. They just targeting 147 lmao

Loser strategy

 

[CricVet]

Need a wicket in this over

 

[gazza619]

SL not going for win but targeting 147. They are not our brothers anymore

 

[Major]

Get rathnayake out plz

 

[Suleiman]

Mankad on hai yaar

Can we take some Ashwin inspiration and do what needs to be done?

Sorry Lanka Bros, no hard feelings

 

[RexRex]

SL are running those singles hard instead of going for the target. They want Pak out so bad lol.

 

[hamzie]

Exactly. They just targeting 147 lmao

Insane

 

[Devadwal]

Wicket is coming in next 6 balls

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Why would Sri Lanka target 147. That makes no sense at all. I don't buy it.

Their purpose is to win the game, not let one rival team or the other go through

 

[jnaveen1980]

I think Lanka is also playing for 148 only

If they really wanted to do that none of them needed to gift their wicket away. They could have done with 3 down

 

[adi_62941]

Where is shadab full tosser

 

[amvbfm]

Sri Lanka won’t win and Pakistan won’t qualify. Had a feeling since the start that this will be a frustrating night for us. Will probably end at 160 all out

 

[Major]

Keep the faith. The cheque will clear.

Cheque bounce hogya bhai.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Why would Sri Lanka target 147. That makes no sense at all. I don't buy it.

Their purpose is to win the game, not let one rival team or the other go through

May be after they get there Pakistan will lose their guard thn they can pounce?

 

[JaDed]

PCT needs a wicket

 

[pillionrider]

SL not going for win but targeting 147. They are not our brothers anymore

At least you have your cousin @Bhaijaan

 

[ads101]

Had we scored 240.

Not the batsmen’s fault. Is still a good total. Bowlers and fielders haven’t even done an average job here. If they had think this match was in the bag. They can’t expect they’re batsmen to hit 240, and then perform like that.

 

[RexRex]

Mankad on hai yaar

Should definitely try it. Nothing wrong in it.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

That's smashed into the crowd

6 shanaka

 

[hamzie]

33 runs left......

 

[Major]

Garbage bowling

 

[sweep_shot]

Six. Shanaka is a good hitter.

Anyway, that was a poor delivery and was there to be smashed.

 

[shah9425]

It's over

 

[CricVet]

6 on a nothing ball

 

[JaDed]

Nawaz back to his trash

 

[mango_bite77]

Treatment for garbade useless mediocre Nawaz
