Australia (177/5) defeat Pakistan (176/4) by five wickets to qualify for the ICC T20 World Cup Final

[shah_1]

No shame if Australia play well and win this

Cummins and Zampa two overs in last 5 overs was the key

 

[Kianig89]

Wickets req the old school mantra

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Need wkts to slow them down

 

[imshally81]

Hasan Ali The Destroyer on...

 

[pillionrider]

This umpires call needs to be scrapped, if your out your out!

Except that, he was not out.

 

[UzmanBeast]

Need a wicket here.

Warner the prized scalp because our bowlers generally struggle bowling to lefties.

Getting both would be great.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

We messed up in Last few overs 190 was needed here. Also Pak Need to use their brains

 

[shah_1]

Poor ball

 

[Kianig89]

Customary boundary in every over

 

[Shafi]

pathetic captaincy!!! Hasan will leak 20 runs

 

[Zeshan547]

Aussies gonna murder Hasan Ali, he may never recover from this phainty.

 

[hamzie]

hassan ali picking up from where he left off

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

If hasan Ali bowls filth Then no hope. Need him on fire today

 

[Aman]

So many bad balls

 

[Noman]

Hafees is needed

 

[saeedhk]

Poor bowling!

 

[Jabo]

we had a good run

good run isn't good enough

we almost bottled it against NZ/AFG

nevermind the other 2 teams we played
that's why we needed go out & win to shut all that talk down

 

[castortroy]

Did say wining the toss wins matches

 

[m.shah]

Bye bye Pakistan.

 

[Kianig89]

Predictor favoring Aus now

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan 15 runs short here , Asif Ali not batting will make the difference

 

[Aman]

Yeah, this pitch is too good. Pakistan are going to have to have 2 bowlers step up to win this.

 

[sweep_shot]

Poor delivery from Hasan.

 

[Rana]

Pakistan looking poor out there

They are still favourites but this is terrible bowling

 

[Saj]

Excellent batting from Australia.

Hitting the bad balls for boundaries and working the singles.

 

[Major]

Win predicter has placed us to lose now

 

[sweep_shot]

Pakistan 15 runs short here , Asif Ali not batting will make the difference

Asif Ali got to bat. He was out for a golden duck.

 

[Kianig89]

Take Shaheen overs away and it's a no contest

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan lack a genuine spinner , and that was always going to hurt at some point

 

[mosh101]

Pakistan look like they cant find any wickets.

Aussies in full control

 

[pillionrider]

Someone should tell Hasan Ali to take it easy with that thing he does, cleaning his tongue or something. Looks disgusting on camera.

 

[UzmanBeast]

Need to stop bowling poor deliveries.

Keep things tight here.

 

[shah_1]

Warner is truly back in form

 

[sweep_shot]

50 is up (5.3 overs).

 

[Sherazkhalid]

oh well guess both top teams will be out. Pakistan was slow in their innings. Thought 175 be good enough but seems like we need 210 here.

 

[Ab Fan]

The greatest IPL batsman of all-time, David Warner is giving nightmares here to our Padosi fans.

 

[angrypathan]

Far out Australia are absolutely cruising here

 

[imshally81]

Finally a dot ball..

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Needed 200

 

[cric_4life]

Bring in hafeez

 

[Shafi]

Hasan will cost us this game. We will learn by hard way.

 

[m.shah]

Hasan bowling trash as usual.

 

[Aman]

Is the Final being played here?

 

[Forward Defensive Push]

The greatest IPL batsman of all-time, David Warner is giving nightmares here to our Padosi fans.

clutching on to the last straw there

 

[emranabbas]

Only SSA bowled well

 

[ARK Rafay]

Needed 200

Yep. Pitch looks so flat

 

[castortroy]

Aussies always turn up against us

 

[sajsultan]

pakistani bowling just doenst have it.. today.. and runs are not enough..

 

[Justcrazy]

52 . 1

6 overs


excellent start by Aussies , ahead in the game.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Bowling that 4th over with imad was a game changer

 

[imshally81]

Not a bad over by Hasan

 

[emranabbas]

Hasan will cost us this game. We will learn by hard way.

Hassan Ali is bowling way better than rauf

 

[ARK Rafay]

Is the Final being played here?

Yep

 

[Saj]

If they don't get Warner out in the next couple of overs, this match is gone.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Overs 9-10 were slow where Babar fell and then 19th over. Could have been easily 190 plus here.

 

[m.shah]

Shadab and Hafeez's bowling will decide this match.

 

[sweep_shot]

Australia - 52/1 after 6 overs (target: 177).

Good Powerplay for Australia.

 

[jattafridi]

Hafeez should bowl

 

[Aman]

Aus need to choke, only way I can see that is some quality spin and Afridi putting on the squeeze.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Warner will cause havoc now

 

[UzmanBeast]

Bring on Shadab Khan with Mohammad Hafeez for a bit.

Make each batsman play to one side of the boundary, and bowl dots.

Slowing the run-rate is the only way to get out of this, the wicket is such that a fault of the batsman is the only thing to yield a wicket.

 

[shah_1]

Wicket

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Never should’ve bowled Imad for the 4th over. Finch was already gone

 

[imshally81]

Out

 

[Ab Fan]

Shadab Khan will do a Shahid Afridi of 2009 WT20 semi final. Let the battle begin.

 

[Zeshan547]

No more imad plz as long as Warner is there, get two overs from hafeez to make that up.

 

[sweep_shot]

Shadab in the attack.

 

[hamzie]

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssss

 

[Justcrazy]

Shadab in now , Pakistan need quick wickets

 

[Devadwal]

Shaheen should have ball one more over in Power Play. Here Shadab with big wicket

 

[Forward Defensive Push]

Get out |Marshhhhhhh

 

[Aman]

Marsh out!

 

[jattafridi]

Yes out

 

[JibranAnsari]

Pakistan hardly do well when they dont get the PP right.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Arguably two of the best Aussie batters out here now

 

[Thephenom]

That is OUT!

 

[sajsultan]

Yep. Pitch looks so flat

lets face it they are a better side then us.. outside of afridi none of our other bowlers compare to Starc and Zampa.. Zampa completely shut us down.. they will be hitting every bowler at around 10 runs per over and keep Afridi between 6-8 and try to win by 1 to 2 overs.. had we hit Zampa for 40 instead of 20 we'd have put 200... he was damn near unhittable.. and Cummins 19th over really hurt us too

 

[Forward Defensive Push]

this match is giving me nightmares and headaches

 

[shah_1]

Maxwell will come in

Another dangerous batsman

Australia has good batting depth

 

[Aman]

Need to tie Smith down now and push the RR up.
