Hyderabad: Pakistan has been riding their luck lately as South Africa’s defeat to the Netherlands confirmed Pakistan’s spot in the semis. Yesterday, the Netherlands beat South Africa by 13 runs to knock the latter out of the mega event. It came as a surprise to many as the South African team was considered one of the tournament favourites after beating India. The turn of events helped Pakistan miraculously move into the next stage of the event.

Initially, not many had given Pakistan a chance to qualify for the semis as they lost their crucial match to Zimbabwe in the tournament. But Pakistan beat the Netherlands, South Africa, and Bangladesh in the Super 12 stage to keep them alive in the T20 World Cup.
