That's a wrap - The Super Eight lineup for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 is now complete. India and Pakistan from Group A, Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe from Group B, England and West Indies from Group C, and South Africa and New Zealand from Group D. Now, let us take you through the two Groups of Super 8s. X - Zim, SA, WI and Ind | Y - NZ, Eng, SL and Pak. So that's it from this game. But worry not, the cricketing action continues as there are still five league matches to be played. Next up, India take on the Netherlands (who are eliminated) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. India have opted to bat first, and the first ball is just a few minutes away. So you can switch the tabs and follow all the live action from that game. From here, we take your leave. Cheers!
Pakistan into the Super Eights - Plenty of positives for Pakistan as they head into the Super Eights. Their batters showed plenty of intent, and their fielding was sharp, with just a few lapses. Their Super Eight campaign begins against New Zealand in Pallekele on Tuesday, 24th February, followed by a clash with Sri Lanka at the same venue on Saturday, 28th February.
The victorious captain of Pakistan - Salman Agha walks up for a chat. Starts by saying that it had to be a complete performance and goes on to applaud the way Sahibzada Farhan, who has been batting well, played. Further mentions that they were lethal with the ball, whether it be the pacers or the spinners. On Usman Tariq, Salman mentions that he has faced Usman in domestic competitions and feels that it is very hard to pick him and is happy that he is now doing well for the national team. On their next game against New Zealand, Salman says that if they keeping doing the same things that they have done in this game, they will do well. Ends by saying that they have the spin all-rounders and if needed, they can use the pacers in the middle over as well and chuckles a bit as he says you don't need to bowl much pace in Sri Lanka anyway.
The captain of Namibia - Gerhard Erasmus reflects on the defeat. He says it was encouraging to see a young player like Brassell charging in, backed up by Smit and Trumpelmann. However, he admits that they were unable to apply pressure with a few early wickets. Commenting on Pakistan’s spin attack, Erasmus says it’s a special skill to be able to turn the ball both ways as they do. He adds that Namibia will take that on board and work on improving their batting against such bowling. On the 2027 World Cup coming to Namibia, he shares his excitement about the growing cricket scene in the country, with plenty of games throughout the year, and says the team is looking forward to hosting the big event at home.
PLAYER OF THE MATCH - Sahibzada Farhan gets the accolade for his unbeaten 100 off 58 balls. Farhan says that he is that player who has played domestic matches regularly for the last 4 years and tries not to miss any of those matches. Feels that is why he is able to perform for the national team as well. Mentions that the wicket wasn't easy to start on and had a chat with Saim Ayub regarding that and was confident that if he took some time, he could make a big score. Reckons that the partnership between him and Shadab was crucial and he knew that Shadab could go big whenever he wanted but wanted to focus on building a stand first.
... THE PRESENTATION CEREMONY ...
Trial by spin - Pakistan pushed Namibia on the back foot and it was always going to be a herculean task for them to face the spin barrage. Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Saim Ayub, cleverly dished out the variations and trapped the batters at will. And the fact that Usman Tariq, the mystery spinner's introduction was delayed, just like it was against India. But the moment he was introduced, his cunning variations were too hot to handle for the batters as he broke the back of the Namibian middle and lower order.
Never truly in the chase - With a Mount Everest to climb, Namibia needed a positive start, and they did get one through Steenkamp and Frylinck. A bit of generosity from Pakistan came through a dropped catch as well, but Namibia couldn't capitalise on the start they got. Pakistan jolted the Namibians with quick wickets, reducing them from 32/0 to 49/4, with skipper Gerhard Erasmus gone as well.
One man army - Sahibzada Farhan pulled off a hero move for his team on the big day. Despite cramping up and needing some medical attention, he kept going like a trooper. At one point, he was on 30 off 27, but then just clicked into overdrive. From there, he went on a rampage to smash his maiden T20I century. That also made him only the second Pakistani to hit a T20 World Cup ton after Ahmed Shehzad back in 2014. Saim Ayub fell early, but the Farhan-Salman Agha duo set Pakistan on the right track with a brisk 67-run partnership in that middle phase. Then Shadab joined the party and added some solid fireworks of his own. Namibia couldn't stop the run flow as only Jack Brassell and Gerhard Erasmus were amongst the wickets, while the others were smashed to all parts of the ground.
Dominance personified - After being shellshocked by the Indians, the Men in Green have totally outplayed, outbowled and outbatted the Namibians at the SSC. And with this commanding win, PAKISTAN HAVE QUALIFIED FOR THE SUPER EIGHTS. They become the final team to seal the Super Eight lineup. Joy lights up the Pakistani camp as the camera pans to the dugout, where head coach Mike Hesson is all smiles. This is also Pakistan's BIGGEST win by runs in the ICC Men's T20 World Cups (as show on the on air graphic). Unfortunately for Namibia, being bundled out for 97 chasing 200 says it all in a day to forget. They just couldn’t battle Pakistan’s spin attack and were completely swallowed up without much resistance. Also, with this USA ARE OFFICIALLY ELIMIATED from this World Cup as Pakistan climb to the second spot in Group A.

उस्मान तारिक To विलेम माईबर्ग OUT!
OUT! EDGED AND GONE! That's it, it's all over for Namibia and Pakistan are officially through to the Super 8s, the final team to do so. Usman Tariq bowls this one a bit flatter and bowls it short and wide. Willem Myburgh goes for the cut but there's a bit of an extra bounce. He ends up edging it behind, where Usman Khan takes another sharp catch to his right. It is reviewed but UltraEdge confirms the thick edge and PAKISTAN WIN BY 102 RUNS.
Is Willem caught behind? The on-field decision is OUT, and he goes upstairs for a review. UltraEdge shows a faint spike when the ball is next to the bat. Usman Tariq finishes off with career-best T20I figures of 4/16, including a maiden in 3.3 overs.

उस्मान तारिक To बर्नार्ड शॉल्ट्ज OUT!
OUT! TIMBER! Another wrong'un from Usman Tariq and he has three wickets to his name, just like Shadab Khan. Tariq brings out the googly, landing it slightly full and around off. Bernard Scholtz leans ahead to drive on the off side but is beaten in the flight. The ball turns back in to clatter into the middle stump and Pakistan are now just on wicket away from the win.

शादाब खान To जेन ग्रीन OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Looked like a decent hit from Zane Green but that's a terrific catch in the deep from Saim Ayub. Shadab Khan tosses the ball up, full on middle and leg. Green sits down to sweep and batters it flat over backward square leg. Saim runs in from the deep and puts in a lunging dive to snaffle it with both hands. Difficult to pick it under the lights and the replays confirm that it is a fair catch. Namibia are now 8 down.
Is that a clean catch? The umpires have sent it upstairs for a review to check the legality of the catch. Saim dived forward in the outfield to scoop the ball before the grass. But are his fingers completely under the ball? The third umpire, Kumar Dharmasena, deems it a clean catch after checking a couple of angles. A superb catch by Saim Ayub as OUT loads on the giant screen.

Would you believe it? A third triple of the over, 11 coming off it in total. On middle and leg, tucked away wide to the left of Babar Azam at short fine leg. Faheem Ashraf from deep square leg hurries to his right and manages to put in a slide and just keep the ball in play. Easy three this time for the batters.

Short ball around middle, 83.2 kph. Willem backs away and chops it off the inside edge to backward point. Nawaz and the keeper appeal for LBW, but the umpire denies. After a lot of pondering, Pakistan go for a review. But the first replay itself shows that it hit the bat first. They lose the review. Mark Howard, on air, jokingly says that never listen to the bowler. To which Waqar Younis laughs it off.

उस्मान तारिक To रूबेन ट्रम्पेलमैन OUT!
OUT! BOWLED! Totally outfoxed and Usman has his second wicket. Another googly, flighted above the eyeline of the batter. Full and around off, spins back in very sharply. Ruben Trumpelmann gets half forward to push it away, but is completely outplayed by the variation as the ball sneaks past his inside edge and crashes back onto the stumps. Looking at the replays, it is a bit different than a regular googly and Waqar Younis on air describes it as a carrom ball bowled in the form of a googly.
13.2

उस्मान तारिक To रूबेन ट्रम्पेलमैन
A lengthy appeal for LBW, but not given. Dishes out a googly, full and on the leg stump line. Ruben Trumpelmann is sucked onto the front foot, tries to block, but the ball spins back in sharply, beats the inside edge and thuds the front pad before rolling away. Pakistan do not review it as it is possibly going down leg.
DRINKS! Namibia are going down in a hurry now. They went from 32/0 to 49/4 and now they have lost a couple of quick wickets again, derailing any sort of progress. The mantra for Pakistan seems to be 'spin to win' right now and they are doing a fine job of consolidating a place in the Super 8s. With every passing over, it seems like USA's campaign is coming to an end and the focus will now be on whether Namibia can get to a decent total or not as they look to finish their campaign on a positive note. With that said, Ruben Trumpelmann walks out to bat now.

उस्मान तारिक To जे जे स्मित OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Tariq strikes now. He holds the pause, sees the batter shuffle wide outside the off stump and follows the batter. Pitched on a length, outside off, cramping the batter for room as JJ Smit tries to drag it leg side with a slog sweep. Ends up badly mistiming it off the top edge. The ball spoons up over mid-wicket and Shadab Khan tracks back a few yards, keeps his eyes locked on the ball and takes a fine running catch. Namibia are 81/6.

शादाब खान To अलेक्जेंडर वोलशेंक OUT!
OUT! STUMPED! Clever bowling from Shadab as he gets his second wicket. A perfect leg spinner wicket. A flighted, full delivery outside off, a teasing leg break that drifts away. Alexander steps out, looking to launch it downtown, but misses connecting as he loses his shape, trying to hit it too hard. Usman reacts instantly, collecting to his right and whipping the bails off in a flash. Alexander is caught short and Namibia are 79/5, chasing 200.

A big appeal for LBW, turned down. Probably hitting outside the line. Shadab brings out the googly, tossing it up on a good length and bowling it just outside off. Alexander Volschenk doesn't read it and tries to block but the ball darts back in and hits the front pad. No review is taken.

Gerhard Erasmus waits back to dab it fine but ends up deflecting it behind. Usman moves swiftly to his right and pouches it nicely. 32/0 has now become 49/4 for Namibia.

FOUR! Too short and punished right away. Poor start from Shadab, bowling it very short and outside off. Gerhard Erasmus stays back and scythes it away between backward point and short third for a boundary.

मोहम्मद नवाज To लौरेन स्टीनकैंप OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust and Namibia are in deep trouble right now. Tossed up, on a length and aroud middle. This one grips a bit and turns away. Louren Steenkamp goes deep in the crease and looks to slog across the line and against the turn, instead of looking to hit down the ground. Steenkamp completely miscues it up in the air and the ball comes down to the right of the bowler. However, the keeper, Usman Khan, calls for it early and pouches it safely as well.

Flighted up, on a nagging length and around off. Steenkamp hangs back and chops it down to point.
A profitable Powerplay for Pakistan. Namibia are 40/2. At the same stage, Pakistan were 47/1. Mohammad Nawaz is introduced into the attack. He replaces Salman Mirza.

Flighted ball, bowled full and outside off, Steenkamp drives it along the turf to covers.
DRINKS BREAK. A couple of quick wickets have brought Pakistan right on top of the game. They didn't have a good start as they dropped an early catch, and served a few looseners as well, but have recovered well. There have been flashes of intent from Namibia, but they are pushed for a massive reconstruction job now as Gerhard Erasmus arrives at the crease at number 4. It is on the Namibian captain to steady the ship and take the game as deep as possible with a stable partnership in this middle phase.

सैम अयूब To निकोल लॉफ्टी-ईटन OUT!
OUT! JAN NICOLE LOFTIE-EATON IS RUN OUT! Seemed like a well-judged single to begin with but unfortunately for Namibia, it is a run out and they didn't need that one bit. Loftie-Eaton backs away early and Saim Ayub follows him with a flatter delivery from around the stumps. Loftie-Eaton taps it straight to extra cover and sets off for the single. Salman Agha picks it up and throws it to the bowler. Saim whips off the bails and the smart replay confirms that the batter is short of his crease. Namibia are now 39/2.

सलमान मिर्जा To जैन फ्राइलिंक OUT!
OUT! BOWLED! A bit of a relief in the Pakistan camp as Mirza provides the first breakthrough. He goes at pace, lands it full and attacks the stumps. Jan Frylinck shuffles to the leg side by exposing the stumps, attempts to carve it through the off side, but the ball nips and skids back in, beats the bat, and crashes into the stumps behind. A corker of a delivery from Mirza. Namibia are 32/1, chasing 200.
Salman Mirza (1-0-5-0) switches ends, replacing Faheem Ashraf.

BEATEN! Peach of a delivery by Ayub. Dishes out one more carrom ball, on a fractionally fuller length, outside off. It grips, spins, and bounces away from the batter. Louren Steenkamp is sucked onto the front foot, tries to push it away inside out, but the ball spins past the face of the bat. Usman Khan collects the ball to his right and whips the bails off in a flash, but Steenkamp drags his back leg inside in time.

Nips back in and stays a bit low on the bounce, on a length, on middle and leg. Jan Frylinck is rushed on the back foot, tries to pull, but the ball beats the inside edge and pings on the thigh pad.
Also, Shaheen Afridi is on the field as a replacement fielder, probably on for Sahibzada Farhan, who might be off the field for a knee injury. Remember, you cannot go off the field for cramps under the current laws of cricket.

IN THE AIR... DROPPED! Nawaz has put down an absolute dolly. A short ball just outside off, cross seam. Jan Frylinck goes on the back foot and pulls it off the toe-end. Nawaz dives to his right from deep square leg, gets both hands down and lets it slip. That was a routine chance and the one to be taken. They get a couple of runs.

Short in length, nipping back into the batter. Louren is taken aback by the extra bit of bounce, tries to pull but the ball hits his right shoulder and flies flat to the left of short third. Salman Mirza flings himself to that direction, tries to take it airborne, but shells it in the end. They get a leg bye. Regardless, a fantastic effort by Mirza.
