Following a one-sided clash at the R. Premadasa Stadium, India has officially become the first team from Group A to qualify for the Super 8s.

In a dominant performance on Sunday, February 15, the defending champions crushed arch-rivals Pakistan by 61 runs, maintaining their perfect record in the tournament.

The victory has significant implications for the standings. While India sits comfortably at the top, Pakistan’s heavy defeat has seen them slide down the table, leaving their qualification hopes hanging by a thread.

Group A: India Punch Super 8 Ticket; Pakistan Slump to Third

India’s clinical defense of 175/7 was led by a disciplined bowling attack that bundled Pakistan out for just 114. Consequently, Pakistan’s Net Run Rate (NRR) took a massive hit, allowing the USA to move into the second spot.
