Furious fans slammed the Pakistan Cricket Team after the team got knocked out of the T20 World Cup 2024 for the first time from the group stage.
A washed-out match between Ireland and the USA eliminated Pakistan, as the USA advanced to the next stage of the Super 8 round of the tournament. Pakistan needed Ireland to defeat the USA and win their match against Ireland to progress to the next round.
The washed-out match due to rains in Florida gave one point to each Ireland and the USA, thus making the latter a strong contender for progressing to the tournament’s next stage. Pakistan will now play its last league match against Ireland on Sunday.
The fans were furious and disgruntled as they once again targeted the players, coaching staff, and management of PCB for such an embarrassing exit of the team from the tournament. Pakistani fans are questioning the selection criteria of the team.
Meanwhile, India has topped the game with six points and the USA is second with five points. Pakistan is third in the group, so even if they win their match against Ireland on Sunday, they still won’t qualify for the next stage.
Out of three matches, Pakistan only managed to win the match against Canada. Pakistan lost to the USA and India. Pakistani cricketers are garnering intense criticism on social media.
