Mohammad Kaif on Pakistan Super-8 qualifications Chances: As the matches are being played in the ninth edition of the T20 World Cup (T20 World Cup 2024), the excitement of the tournament is increasing more and more. At the beginning of the event, 20 teams were in the race to win the trophy, but now 6 teams are out of this race. Pakistan is also on the verge of being eliminated from the tournament from the group stage. Meanwhile, former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif has given a surprising statement about the hopes and performance of the Pakistan team to qualify for the Super 8.
Whether Pakistan will qualify for the Super 8 in the T20 World Cup or not will be decided by the match between USA and Ireland today. Before this match, Kaif, while talking about Pakistan's chances of reaching the Super 8 during a Star Sports show, said, 'Pakistan's luck is very strong. We have seen many times that their players are not in form, the team's performance is poor and the media as well as former cricketers are after them, despite this they qualify. But this time the USA team is ahead of them.'
He said, Pakistan has lost its first two matches in the tournament. Neither their batting nor bowling is in form. They lost the first over due to their bowling, in which Haris Rauf hit a four in the last over which led to the Super Over. After this, Mohammad Aamir bowled a lot of wide balls in the Super Over. In the second match, Pakistan had to chase 120 runs, where their batting flopped. If your batting, bowling and fielding are bad, then Pakistan should be blamed. One should not have much hope of them reaching the Super 8.

It is worth noting that if USA wins against Ireland in today's match, they will qualify for the Super 8 and Pakistan's journey will end. However, if this match is cancelled due to rain, USA will still reach the Super 8 with 5 points.
