    By IANS News March 01, 2026 • 07:40 AM View: 239

    Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka’s fighting knock of 76 runs was not enough as Pakistan edged past the hosts for a five-run victory in their final match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 at the Pallekele International Stadium in Kandy on Saturday.

    Despite the narrow win, Pakistan were knocked out of the tournament. After scoring 212 while batting first, Pakistan needed to restrict Sri Lanka to 147 runs to go past New Zealand on Net Run Rate. However, Sri Lanka finished on 207, falling short of the target but still ending Pakistan’s campaign.
