Guarantee,&#8221; Asif said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"5\"\/> <\/p>\n<div class=\"lOvcW vdo_embedd\">\n<div class=\"k7lcu\">\n<p>Special dinner for Team India at Gautam Gambhir\u2019s house in Delhi | T20 World Cup<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/>The United States had announced their arrival on the global stage during their maiden World Cup appearance in the 2024 edition, when they stunned Pakistan in a dramatic contest. <!-- -->Chasing a modest target, USA needed 15 runs off the final over, with Haris Rauf conceding 14 to push the match into a Super Over.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>Pakistan then faltered under pressure as senior pacer Mohammad Amir delivered three wides in the Super Over and leaked 18 runs. Pakistan could manage only 13 for one in response, handing USA a famous victory.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>Coming into the Colombo clash, the Americans will be eager to bounce back after losing their tournament opener to India and will view this fixture as an opportunity to repeat their heroics against Pakistan.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>Pakistan, meanwhile, had a narrow escape in their opening game against the Netherlands on Saturday. The 2009 champions were on the brink of another upset, needing 29 runs from the final two overs before Faheem Ashraf\u2019s late assault turned the match in their favour.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/>With only the top two teams from Group A advancing to the Super Eight stage, Pakistan cannot afford further stumbles\u2014especially after opting out of their February 15 fixture against India. A defeat to the USA, as in 2024, could once again derail their World Cup campaign at the group stage.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/><\/div>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/icc-mens-t20-world-cup\/pakistan-in-big-danger-ex-pak-star-guarantees-us-will-beat-pakistan-again\/articleshow\/128153394.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image credit: Getty Images Former Pakistan fast bowler Mohammad Asif has sounded a strong note&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1522,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[3199,4567,3193,4566,1125,1126],"class_list":["post-1521","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-babar-azam","tag-mohammad-asif","tag-pakistan-cricket","tag-pakistan-vs-usa","tag-t20-world-cup","tag-t20-world-cup-2026"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1521","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1521"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1521\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1522"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1521"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1521"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1521"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
