Chasing 159 to win, the US was in command throughout the chase before the Pakistan bowlers came back at the death and choked the flow of the runs. Needing 15 to win off the last over, Aaron Jones was dropped by Shahen Afridi at mid-off. He made them pay big time as he hit a six in the over and Nitish Kumar hit four off the last ball when the US needed five to win to force the match into the Super Over.
In the Super Over, Mohammad Amir, the best Pakistan bowler in the match earlier, bowled seven extras and the US ended up making 18 in it. Chasing 19 to win, Pakistan could only muster 13/1 and lost the match by five runs.
Earlier, a disciplined US bowling attack restricted Pakistan to 159.7 with no Menin Green batter touching the fifty-run mark. Babar Azam top scored with 44 as he became the leading run scorer in T20 internationals by overtaking Virat Kohli during this innings.

Pakistan vs USA LIVE Score Updates, T20 World Cup 2024: USA win Super Over by five runs
In 2007 it was Bob Woolmer, Inzamam's Pakistan and Ireland was the opposition in the West Indies. This time it is Babar Azam, Gary Kirsten and the USA the opposition and the Caribbean and the USA as hosts.
Ball 6 That is just a single and Netravalkar and the USA have done it and they have beaten Pakistan and yet again, another South African coach has bottled down another Pakistan team in another World Cup in the Caribbean.
Ball 5 Shadab doesn't get the connection right and he runs two. Now unless and until the last ball is a no or wide there seems to be no way Pakistan can win in this Super Over. Will we have another one?
Ball 4 Four!! Edeg and that would run away for a four past the keeper and the short third. 9 needed off the last two balls now
Ball 4 Wide again. So that would mean 13 off 3 now
Ball 3 We have an umpire review for a fair catch as the USA fielder seemed confident. The third umpire doesn't seem to have conclusive evidence to rule against the on-field decision of out. So that would be out and now it is 14 needed off the last three balls
Ball 3 Wide. Too much outside off
Ball 2 Four!! In the gap this time it is four runs
Ball 1 Iftikhar is on strike and Netravalakar bowls. It would be dot ball to start with
So Iftikhar Ahmed and Fakahar Zaman it is for Pakistan to win the game. Can they 19 needed to win?

Pakistan vs USA LIVE Score Updates, T20 World Cup 2024: PAK need 19 to win in Super Over
Over Summary: 4 2 1 2wd 1 2wd 2 3 wd 1w; USA 18-1 after 1 Overs
Harmeet Singh (0), Aaron Jones (11); Mohammed Amir 1-0-18-0
Ball 6 Single off the last ball and it means that Pakistan would need 19 to win the Super Over and the match. Or at least 18 to force another one.
Ball 6 3 Wides Bowls yet another wide does Amir and they run two more. This means three off the ball without it being a ball also, This was wide outside off
Ball 5 Two runs are run and the frustration on Pakistani faces increases it is already 14 off the over with a ball to go.
Ball 5 2 Wides. Once again bowls the wide down the leg to the left-hander and a single is taken. Amir is frustrated to the core by himself
Ball 4 Single and that is 10 off the first four balls
Ball 4 2 Wides. That would be two wides down the leg and it was brilliant on the part of USA to sned a left-hander against Amir
Ball 3 Nails the yorker and that would be seven of the first three balls
Ball 2 Two off the second ball and it is advantage US here because expecting Pakistan batters to get over 10 in Super Over is too much
Ball 1 Four!! Mohammad Amir the best bowler of Pakistan tasked to bowl the Super Over and he gets hit for a four first ball

Pakistan vs USA LIVE Score Updates, T20 World Cup 2024: Nitish Kumar forces Super Over
Over Summary: 1 1 1 6 1 4; USA 159-3 after 20 Overs
Nitish Kumar (14), Aaron Jones (36); Haris Rauf 4-0-37-1
Dropped. That was a regulation catch for Shaheen Afridi and Aaron Jones though he was out, not to be. 12 needed off 3 balls now
Wow, what a miss that was from Afridi as Jones has now deposited Rauf for a six here and now it is 6 needed off two to win.
Nails in the yorker again does Rauf and it is five needed off 1 ball to win for the USA and cause the upset. Four and we go for a super over.
Nitish is on strike and Rauf bowls a low full toss and the match is tied. We are going into the Super Over here. Just missed the target by a whisker.

Pakistan vs USA LIVE Score Updates, T20 World Cup 2024: US needs 15 runs off 6 balls to win
Over Summary: 1 L1 0 1 0 3; USA 145-3 after 19 Overs
Nitish Kumar (8), Aaron Jones (28); Mohammad Amir 4-0-25-1
Huge appeal for LBW on the second ball here as the ball hit the pads of the batter Nitish Kumar. But that hit the bat first confirms the Snicko and it was also pitching outside leg, Pakistan lost their second review.
Two off the first three balls here and now 19 needed off 9 to win for USA. Jones connects, but only for a single as Aamir continues to nail the yorkers.
Amazing from Aamir. He knew the batter was going to move in his crease and he bowled it outside off and cut out the ramp shot., Dot ball again. Three off the last ball and that would mean 15 to get off the final over.

Pakistan vs USA LIVE Score Updates, T20 World Cup 2024: US needs 21 runs off 12 balls to win
Over Summary: 0 4 1 0 1 1; USA 139-3 after 18 Overs
Nitish Kumar (5), Aaron Jones (26); Shaheen Afridi 4-0-33-0
Shaheen Afridi into the attack now. Pakistan need the wicket of Jones or maybe not as that will bring Corey Anderson to the crease.
Four!! Wait a minute, Jones says no need to say anything I can do this. Hits a four on a low full toss.
Nitish Kumar is saved as Instead of hitting it with his foot, Afrid went on to pick the ball and then removed the stumps. Five off the first three balls here.
Play and a miss from Nitish and that would be a dot ball. Round the wicket yorker darted in by Afridi.
Gets another one right. Makes it six off the first five balls with Jones facing the final one. Just a single off the last ball would mean 21 off the last two overs. Can the US do it?

Pakistan vs USA LIVE Score Updates, T20 World Cup 2024: US needs 28 off 18 to win
Over Summary: 1 0 1 Wd 1 1 1; USA 132-3 after 17 Overs
Nitish Kumar (4), Aaron Jones (20); Naseem Shah 4-0-26-1
Too short and that has been called a wide. Otherwise, the first three balls from Naseem were well bowled. So far five off the first four balls here.
Naseem has nailed his yorkers brilliantly. Pakistan must now think about how they let Monak and Gous run away with the show. Six from the over. 28 needed off 18 to win now.

Nitish Kumar (2), Aaron Jones (17); Shadab Khan 3-0-27-0
Shadab Khan has been brought into the attack in the 16th over and he has been hit for a huge six by Aaron Jones. Was that a mistake by Babar? It is 10 from the first five balls and the USA needed only nine runs per over.
11 from the over eventually and the co-hosts now need 34 off 24 to win the match. Not a tough ask.

Wicket!! Finally, the wicket for Pakistan and it took them 8 overs to get this one. Pitched on middle and off and Gpus gets beaten by sheer pace. This brings last-match hero Aaron Jones on strike for the USA.
Way too wide down the leg and Pakistan let those balls go away now, They hardly have 50 runs to defend with six overs yet to go.
