Pakistan crashed out of the T20 World Cup 2024 after the game between Ireland vs USA was called off due to a waterlogged outfield in Lauderhill on Friday.

Pakistan hopes were hinged on the USA team losing to Ireland for them to have a chance of qualifying.

However, the start of Friday’s match was delayed as ground staff battled to remove standing water in the outfield.
