By IANS News February 28, 2026 • 10:07 AM View: 632

The qualification situation for Pakistan in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 is clear, direct, and completely within their control after England’s four-wicket win against New Zealand has completely changed the Group 2 standings in Colombo.

After winning against New Zealand at the R. Premadasa Stadium, Harry Brook’s England completed the Super 8 stage unbeaten in Group 2 and have made what looked like a slim chance for qualification into a straightforward equation for Pakistan going into their last match.
