There was a time when we were at the top of the points table."
In the ongoing T20 World Cup in Australia, the
Pakistan cricket team has fallen far behind in the race for the semi-finals.
The three matches played on Sunday were crucial for
the Pakistan team to reach the semi-finals, in which two matches brought
Pakistan close to the semi-finals, but India's loss in the match between India
and South Africa eliminated Pakistan from the competition. .
After India's defeat by South Africa in the match in
Perth, Pakistan team is not completely out of the tournament according to the
statistics, but to go to the semi-finals, Pakistan team needs a miracle.
How likely is it now for the Pakistan team to go to
the semi-finals?
After the match between India and South Africa,
Pakistani fans are once again looking at their team in the midst of
disappointment.
In this regard, TV host and manager of Islamabad
United Rehanul Haq writes on the social media website Twitter that "All
the hopes of the Pakistani team are now on power, the first situation is that
Pakistan wins its remaining matches and South Africa's Netherlands. If the
match is canceled due to rain, then India will beat Zimbabwe.
Rehan-ul-Haq further writes that the other situation
is that Pakistan wins both their matches and India's matches are rained out.
Pak's Requirements from Qudrat:
Scenario 1: Pakistan wins both their games, SA vs
Netherlands is a washout or Netherlands wins, India beats Zim
Scenario 2: Pakistan wins both their games, both of
India's matches are washouts. https://t.co/i95mXOePMJ

In his second tweet, Rehan mentioned another
possible scenario and said that 'There is also a scenario if Bangladesh beats
India, then it will come down to net run rate as Pakistan and India will have
equal points, but I don't. Saying it will happen, just telling the situation.'
Pakistan's realistic chances of reaching the semis
are now over. The only way they can qualify is: if they win their next two
games and the low-ranked teams like Zimbabwe, Bangladesh or Netherlands create
some upsets. Or they need some big help from weather. #T20WorldCup

Cricket statistician Mazhar Arshad said about
Pakistan going to the semi-finals in the T20 World Cup that 'Pakistan's real
chances of going to the semi-finals are over now, the only way we can go now is
to play our next two matches. Win the matches and upset the smaller teams like
Zimbabwe, Bangladesh and the Netherlands or the weather will help us a lot.'
If we're not defending 48 off 18 and we're not
chasing 43 off 29 then we're not a semifinal team.
It's time to move on. #T20WorldCup

Disappointing comments from users are also being
seen on Twitter as the chances of Pakistan team reaching the semi-finals are
reduced.
"If we can't defend 48 runs off 18 balls and
score 43 runs off 39 balls, then we are not a semi-final team, now is the time
to move on," says Mossad Afzal.
Reminiscing about the T20 World Cup to be held in
2021, Hania writes that 'There was a time when we were at the top of the points
table.'

Hamza Sheikh writes that "The loss to Zimbabwe
will always hurt us. I think we should think about the 2023 World Cup now. Only
by winning the World Cup can these wounds be healed."
