Canada vs Pakistan 22nd Match ICC T20 World Cup 2024
Former T20 World Cup champions Pakistan are gearing up for a must-win match against Canada at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium. Babar Azam and his squad need a decisive victory to stay in contention. Meanwhile, Canada is riding high after a win over Ireland in their last game.
Pakistan has had a rough patch, losing their last two matches in the tournament. Their recent defeat came against arch-rivals India, where they couldn’t chase down a modest 120-run target. This puts Pakistan in a tight spot, requiring them to win their remaining matches and boost their run rate to advance.
On the other hand, Canada started their campaign with a loss to the USA but bounced back strongly with a historic win over Ireland—their first ever in an ICC T20 World Cup. With this momentum, the Canadian team is confident and eager to upset Pakistan’s chances of reaching the Super 8 stage.
The pitch at Nassau County Ground offers a bowling track with a lot of help for the pacers as there is a good amount of seam and swing movement which becomes a nightmare for the batters. The average innings score is around 110.
