Pakistan, the 2009 champions, recovered from a poor start to score 159-7 but the US plundered 14 runs from their final over to finish on 159-3 and send the match to a Super Over.

As the tournament co-hosts made 18-1, helped by two wides from Pakistan, before restricting their opponents to 13-1 to seal a famous victory, the men in green were all over the Internet with netizens trolling them.
They joked over Pakistan team’s fitness training at a military camp saying ‘Military training ke chakkar mein cricket khelna bhool gaye'(it did not benefit them at all)”.
The team had undergone a military drill for better fitness two months ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
Pakistan won the game from bottom list . Just because of very well commando training. By the lumbar 1 trainers 😉👍🏻💯✅#PakvsUSA pic.twitter.com/TbkmVcRvov
So if Pakistan looses against India, they might be out of the tournament if USA beats Ireland.

Even if USA does not beats Ireland, all they need is a better run rate.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had called 29 players to take part in the fitness camp at Abbottabad’s Army School of Physical Training (ASPT) in Kakul.
Video clips showed players scaling nets, clearing hurdles and sprinting with tenacity.
