Pakistan were gifted the third position in the ongoing ICC U19 World Cup after their third-place match with Afghanistan was abandoned due to rain without a ball being bowled on Thursday.

Pakistan finished on the first position in their group D with four points (net run-rate: 1.404) from three matches courtesy two wins and one defeat.

Afghanistan, who were in the same group as Pakistan, had four points as well, but were second in the group due to their lower net run-rate (0.333).

This led Pakistan to bag the third place in the tournament due to a better position in the group matches.
