The ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 has turned out to be a fascinating one so far. The league stage has produced some fascinating matches with fans getting to experience some memorable moments right from October 5, the day the ICC World Cup 2023 got underway. India have been dominant as expected and have lived up to the billing of being favourites, winning all nine matches. South Africa, Australia and New Zealand have finished in the top four as well. But what about Pakistan? Where did they finish on the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 points table? Most Runs in ICC Cricket World Cup 2023.

Pakistan has been unpredictable as always. They have failed to perform as a unit consistently with the batting, bowling and fielding not complementing each other per expectations. Captain Babar Azam has been under pressure and the injuries of some key players didn't help his case at all. Pakistan have been good in patches, showing glimpses of being a good team. Most Wickets in ICC Cricket World Cup 2023.

Did Pakistan Qualify for ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 Semi-Final? 

No, Pakistan failed to qualify for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 semifinals, much to the disappointment of millions of fans. The Green Shirts finished fifth on the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 points table, with a total of eight points from nine matches. A lean patch in the middle where they lost four games on the trot did not augur well for Babar Azam and co, who fell short on Net Run Rate (NRR) with New Zealand pipping them. What's worse is that they signed off from their ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 campaign with a heavy 93-run defeat at the hands of England.

The Green Shirts began the CWC 2023 well with two consecutive victories but then suffered losses to India, Australia, Afghanistan and South Africa. Moreso, some of these defeats were heavy ones which caused a massive dent to their NRR.
