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

[LongHorn]

Rathnayakes main aim was to let India host semis

 

[globetrotter]

Naaa. Today They were lucky that SL didn't appeal. Otherwise they would have collapsed in heap much earlier.

Even ultra edge was hacked in NZ-SA match

 

[BunnyRabbit]

Drop everyone apart from openers and Abrar, Tariq and Mirza. Bring everyone else from the dometic regardless of how bad they are.
Younis, Malik, Sarfraz, Hafeez,Afridi all were pretty daring when it came to attacking with spinners. Agha is a coward.

 

[Katwalindian]

This is a road wicket.

Needed at least 260

 

[Kianig89]

So in this fake regime we've been humiliated in another world tournament,

 

[globetrotter]

Even ultra edge was hacked in NZ-ENG match

 

[Banda298]

Tariq failure with ball killed Pakistan chances , and wayward mindless bowling by Afridi.

He had gifted the match vs England few days earlier despite his initial 2 or 3 wicket burst. That pathetic last over was crucial in England coming to 6 rpo or less

 

[sweep_shot]

46 to win from 2 overs.

 

[Vikram1989]

Tariq is good only for sluggish pitches. He is too slow for any batting wicket.

 

[harshjoshi87]

So it's

South Africa v New Zealand at Kolkata
England v India/West Indies at Mumbai

 

[shah9425]

So in this fake regime we've been humiliated in another world tournament,

Everything is messed up
Here

 

[Blackbradman]

Pakistan finally got their opening order sorted but it was too late. They kept going with Saim .

They can play Ayub as a bowler , he can replace Nawaz/ Shadab

 

[Energy]

The way Nafay Agha Nawaz skied their wickets was simply unbelievable.

Agha always skies and gets caught inside the 30 yards circle. This guy is a proper softie with no substance as a batter.

 

[shah9425]

So it's

South Africa v New Zealand at Kolkata
England v India/West Indies at Mumbai

Hopefully England Vs West Indies

 

[Banda298]

Pakistan provides excitement, for good ro bad
NZ provides, plain vanilla, boring, mechanical cricket
They have never won world cup in T20 or ODI, always play boring, pretend to be "nice", and then surrender in front of big teams

NZ was robbed of world cup win by pathetic icc rules and British irish luck of ben stokes

 

[RidiculousMan]

Players who should be persisted with;

1. Farhan
2. Fakhar
3. Nafay
4. Faheem
5. Shaheen
6. Naseem
7. Mirza
8. Abrar
9. Tariq

Shadab and Nawaz is an interesting case. Shadab's bowling has been flat but batting is okay. Nawaz bowling has been okay but batting poor.

For the time being. I think Pakistan will need to move on from these two all rounders until they decide their direction and / or improve their game.

 

[psyoptica]

The way Nafay Agha Nawaz skied their wickets was simply unbelievable.

Agha always skies and gets caught inside the 30 yards circle. This guy is a proper softie with no substance as a batter.

When was the last time he delivered anything substantial for Pakistan

 

[sweep_shot]

Massive six from Shanaka.

 

[harshjoshi87]

Shanaka single handedly chased 70 off 26 against Australia in 2023 T20.

 

[Smbhayi]

 

[Katwalindian]

Pakistan went from ajmal, hafeez and afridi to these jokers.....

 

[chinaman00]

Trash Shadab

 

[shah9425]

This is pathetic full tosser

 

[Josh]

Salman exposing Shadab so that Shadab doesn't get captaincy from.Salman. Salman is a street smart leader.

 

[RexRex]

They have never won world cup in T20 or ODI, always play boring, pretend to be "nice"

What r they really like ?

 

[Katwalindian]

Hopefully England Vs West Indies

South africa vs England with England to win...... Astrologically they are predicted to win

Why is Babar crying? He gets more time to IG model and vacation like always.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Srilanka is not good enough to chase this much total..

You'd think so, but they are at home playing minnows

 

[saabir]

Shadab bowling 19th over .that's a brave call

 

[sweep_shot]

50 for Shanaka. Well played.

29 to win from 8.

 

[shah9425]

Smash this full tosser
Loving it

 

[harshjoshi87]

Sri Lanka in Kohli zone now

28 off 8

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

AGHA OUT!

HESSON OUT!

 

[ads101]

If Shadab could bowl the last over too, Sri Lanka might actually have a chance.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Good riddance at the end for Shadab.

Also great that management is finally getting exposed for not playing Faheem as 3rd seamer.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Honestly even if 170 was the score to stop NZ, on this pitch it wasn't possible.

 

[jnaveen1980]

28 in 7 required.. i remember 28 in 8 required

 

[sweep_shot]

28 to win from 6 balls.

 

[batandballbattle]

dhammad sab's head already in the PSL

 

[RidiculousMan]

If Shadab could bowl the last over too, Sri Lanka might actually have a chance.

It's actually a travesty to bowl spinner the last 2-3 overs. We saw it yesterday too with England and New Zealand.

But Shadab desperately needed this spanking

 

[shah9425]

AGHA OUT!

HESSON OUT!

Asap

 

[srh8119]

Like i said, a parchi team and board from top to bottom with that joker, waste of life Naqvi as chairman

 

[Kianig89]

So we might lose this ,SL pity us ! They are snatching their drawstrings

 

[Deewana Mastana]

24 off 5

 

[saabir]

Smash this full tosser
Loving it

Hahhaa..which genius ask him to bowl 19th over

 

[Banda298]

Srilanka is not good enough to chase this much total..

Haha .. they r still fighting ...very much capable of chasing it

 

[sweep_shot]

Four.

24 to win from 5.

 

[shah9425]

This clown can smash only associates

 

[globetrotter]

Super over hoga

 

[Smbhayi]

Why is Babar crying? He gets more time to IG model and vacation like always.

Unfortunately gemini think he's the face of Pak cricket team

 

[Deewana Mastana]

What a shot Shanaka

 

[sweep_shot]

Six.

18 to win from 4.

 

[ads101]

Can not believe they have come that close to our total. It’s embarrassing.

 

[globetrotter]

18 runs in 4 balls

 

[chinaman00]

Unfortunately gemini think he's the face of Pak cricket team

He’s the face of failure.

 

[harshjoshi87]

Four.

24 to win from 5.

You desperately want your 3rd class team to win this, dont you?

 

[srh8119]

And i dont understand this mentality of having a stable team and captain to carry through till an icc event, even when you are worfully useless like the agha ji

 

[Kianig89]

Hence proved even 70/0 in PP, won't win you games until you have a sane head as skipper

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Shaheen ko iss ke baad aik lambi chutti pe bhej do

 

[shah9425]

This is our odi captain
Pathetic joke

 

[Katwalindian]

This is pathetic full tosser

It should be his last game

 

[JattMaula]

97 meters!

 

[saabir]

Wow shanka doing Kohlis

 

[sweep_shot]

Another six.

12 to win from 3.

 

[globetrotter]

Back to back sixes

 

[ads101]

Over 200. Is a joke.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

12 off 3

2 more sixes coming up

 

[harshjoshi87]

Shanaka is playing heck of an innings

 

[shah9425]

Let's go shanka

 

[chinaman00]

Shaheen, Babar and Naseem have all regressed and refused to grow as players.

 

[batandballbattle]

supporting this team only serves to raise my BP I swear

 

[MSaad1237]

LOL.......

 

[Deewana Mastana]

One more 6 left

 

[Katwalindian]

Can not believe they have come that close to our total. It’s embarrassing.

Pakistan should learn from NZ to how to ball to these Lankan jokers

 

[sweep_shot]

Another six.

6 to win from 2.

 

[saabir]

Wow what a game.. entertaining stuff on weekend

 

[ads101]

Wow we’re losing this.

 

[globetrotter]

3 sixes wow..... Shalaka magneficient

 

[Kianig89]

Some Phuddu Keyboard Warriors here defended Agha as batsman and captain at length with symbolism of intentions and intents

Sab pani mai beh gya @Raja Ishtiaq

 

[harshjoshi87]

6 6 6 vs premium fast bowler
