In their last World Cup group match against England on Saturday, Pakistan must go all out, even though the task of qualifying for the semi-finals seems nearly impossible.
Following their victory over Sri Lanka, New Zealand holds the fourth and final knockout spot with 10 points and a net run rate of +0.743.
Currently fifth in the table with eight points and a net run rate of +0.036, Pakistan faces a daunting challenge. To secure qualification, they need to defeat England by approximately 287 runs when batting first or chase the target with about 284 balls to spare.
