WESTBURY — Pakistan defeated Canada by seven wickets Tuesday to preserve its slender hope of moving on at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup.
The Pakistanis still need to beat No. 11 Ireland , improve its run rate and hope the 18th-ranked United States loses its remaining two matches to achieve its goal of moving on. Top-ranked India and the U.S. meet Wednesday with the winner assured of advancing and the loser still in a good position to join them.
"It was difficult to bat, especially early on. Not a good toss to lose," said Canada captain Saad Bin Zafar."But I believe Pakistan bowlers bowled really well." Canada lost the in-form Nicholas Kirton, run out for one in the seventh over, in a miscommunication with Johnson, who accounted for 34 of Canada's first 50 runs.
The hard-hitting Canadian opener reached his 50 with a six the next over. But Johnson was bowled by Naseem Shah five balls later, exiting at 52 with Canada at 73 for six.
