Former champions Pakistan were eliminated from the T20 World Cup after the match between co-hosts USA and Ireland was called off due to rain.

India top the group with six points while the US are second with five points, which means third-placed Pakistan (two points) cannot finish in the top two even if they beat Ireland on Sunday in their final group game.

Only the top two teams from the four groups advance to the Super Eight. The US beat Canada in the tournament opener before stunning Pakistan in a match that went to a Super Over.
