T20 World Cup 2024: India Defeats USA to Secure Super 8 Spot, Impacting Pakistan’s Qualification Hopes

This win guarantees India a spot in the Super Eight, as they now have 6 points with one game remaining in Group A. With India’s win, Pakistan’s chances of advancing to the next stage now hinge on the outcome of the United States vs. Ireland game on June 14.

If the USA loses, Pakistan can qualify for the Super Eight by defeating Ireland and accumulating four points. However, if the USA wins, they will advance with 6 points, and Pakistan will be eliminated from the tournament, as they can only reach a maximum of four points.

In Wednesday’s game, Arshdeep Singh’s impressive bowling figures of 4 for 9, the best by an Indian bowler in the T20 World Cup, helped Rohit Sharma’s team restrict the USA to 110 for 8. In response, Suryakumar Yadav’s unbeaten fifty guided India to victory in 18.2 overs.
