How can Pakistan still qualify for the Super Eight stage of T20 World Cup?

Pakistan faced a setback in their T20 World Cup campaign, losing to India by six runs in a tense encounter in New York on Sunday at the Nassau County International stadium. 

This defeat has jeopardized their qualification for the Super Eight stage, but there's still a glimmer of hope for the Green Shirts.

The 120-run target set by a struggling Indian batting side proved to be a tough challenge for Pakistan's star players, who failed to make significant contributions in the crucial match.

Pakistan's road to the Super Eight has become incredibly challenging with two losses in two matches. However, specific match outcomes can still pave the way for their progression in the tournament.

Here's a breakdown of how Pakistan can qualify for the T20 World Cup Super Eight round:

• June 11: Canada vs Pakistan — Pakistan must win in this match.
• June 12: USA vs India — India's win is crucial for Pakistan's chances.
• June 14: USA vs Ireland — Pakistan needs Ireland to emerge victorious.
• June 15: Canada vs India — Another win for India is required.
• June 16: Ireland vs Pakistan — Pakistan must win this match convincingly.

In this scenario, India will directly qualify for the Super Eight. Pakistan and the USA will be tied on points, leading to Net Run Rate (NRR) becoming the decisive factor. 

Pakistan needs substantial victories against Canada and Ireland while hoping for losses for USA against India and Ireland with significant margins.
