USA Cricket Team Upsets Pakistan in T20

The USA cricket team achieved a remarkable upset by defeating Pakistan in their T20 World Cup 2024 opener, a match that ended in a Super Over after both teams scored 159 runs. Pacer Ali Khan expressed confidence in the team's ability to replicate this success in the future, stating that they are capable of beating any team, including Pakistan, when at full strength. The USA's performance, which included a strong start and a decisive Super Over where they set a target of 18 runs, led to Pakistan's elimination from the tournament as they managed only 13 runs. Despite this victory, Pakistan struggled throughout the tournament and failed to progress beyond the group stages, finishing with just four points. The USA's win not only boosted their morale but also showcased their potential in international cricket, as they advanced to the Super Eights alongside India. However, their later matches in the Super Eights did not yield the same success, resulting in last place in their group.
