Today, Pakistan’s cricket team is facing Sri Lanka in Colombo, with the aim of securing their place in the final round, provided the match is not affected by rain.
This match is crucial for Pakistan as it is essentially a semi-final against Sri Lanka. India has already qualified for the final with two consecutive victories in the Super Four stage.
Sri Lanka and Pakistan have each won one and lost one of their Super Four matches. While both teams have defeated Bangladesh, Sri Lanka has a slightly higher net run rate (NRR) than Pakistan, which could be a deciding factor if the match results in a tie.
