Pakistan’s Journey in T20 World Cup 2026
Pakistan had an early hiccup in the tournament when their match against Netherlands went down the wire. But it was Faheem Ashraf’s heroics with the bat that saved them. Faheem hit 29* off 11 including a 24-run penultimate over to eventually take his team over the line when they needed 29 off 12.
In the second match, Pakistan defeated USA by a good margin of 32 runs but suffered a defeat against India. The 61-run loss pushed them to the third spot in the points table in Group A making things tricky as USA were at two with same points and wins but with a better NRR. Pakistan needed a win or a washout to march ahead against Namibia and they etched a win against them easily to go through.
Covering sports for fun. Cricket in whites remains the first love—the kind that teaches patience, rewards nuance, and tells stories over five days rather than five seconds.
