Pakistan World Cup 2024 dream comes to an end after the USA vs IRE match was called off due to inconsistent rain and a wet outfield in Lauderhill, Florida.
In the game between USA and IRE, heavy rain and thunderstorms were predicted by the weather forecasts but only rain came in the morning. The match referees check the pitch and field many times.
There was a chance that a game between these two teams would happen but the toss was delayed many times just because of the wet outfield and the match was ultimately called off as the rain started again around 1:30pm local time, right after the fourth inspection, and ended Pakistan’s dreams of making it to the Super 8 of the T20 World Cup.
The USA vs Ireland match was canceled without a ball being bowled, so both teams got one point each. This point helped the USA reach the Super 8 of the T20 World Cup with five points, making it impossible for Pakistan to catch up.
India and the USA have qualified from Group A, while Pakistan, Ireland, and Canada will go home after finishing their group matches.
The USA won against Canada and Pakistan in their first two World Cup matches. Pakistan lost to the host team and India. Pakistan has one more match against Ireland, but it won’t matter since they are already out of the tournament. Pakistan World Cup dream is no more.
In the last two World Cups, Pakistan reached the semi-final in 2021 and lost to Australia. In 2022, they made it to the final but lost to England at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).
