Pakistan finished the campaign at fifth place in the standings with 4 wins from 9 games.
It was Pakistan’s fifth loss in their nine league games and the Men in Green finished the campaign at fifth place in the standings, just above Afghanistan on the basis of a superior net run rate.
After this disappointing result, skipper Babar Azam admitted that the team made mistakes in every department throughout the tournament.
The 29-year-old also expressed his interest in leading the national team during its rebuilding phase in white-ball cricket.
"We will sit together and take stock. We'll take positives from this and discuss mistakes. I'm keen to lead the rebuild," Babar said at the post-match presentation ceremony.
Pakistan failed to make it to the Cricket World Cup semi-finals for the third consecutive time.
"Yes, very disappointed with the performance. If we had won the South Africa match, it could have been a different story. But yes, have made mistakes in bowling, batting and fielding," the captain added.
According to Babar, spin bowlers’ inability to take wickets in the middle overs dented his team badly.
"We conceded a few too many runs. We bowled a few loose deliveries towards the end. And our spinners' aren't taking wickets, which doesn't help. That has a big effect because you need to take wickets in the middle overs."
Coming to the match, the Three Lions piled up a massive 337/9 on the board after opting to bat first. Ben Stokes starred with the bat for England as he scored 84 off 76 balls while Joe Root (60) and Jonny Bairstow (59) returned with vital half-centuries.
In reply, Pakistan’s innings folded for 244 in 43.3 overs. It was a listless batting display as only one batter managed to hit the 50-run mark. Agha Salman was the top scorer with 51 off 45 balls.
