What if pakistan beats australia

Pakistan are undefeated in the T20 World Cup and were the first team to reach the tournament's semi-finals after their consecutive victories against India, New Zealand, Afghanistan, and Namibia in the Super 12 stage. Pakistan will face Scotland — who have exited the tournament — this Sunday in Sharjah.

However, despite the Men In Green being the first ones to book their place in the semis, it is still unclear whom they will be up against. There are two groups in the Super 12 stage. The team which ends at the top of each group will play the team which ranks second on the other group's points table. Australia not out of match yet. This Pakistan team has way too many match-winners. This time, it is Shadab Khan. Shades of Imran Khan's team of but this one fields much better.

Time running out for the Aussies, they need 68 off In T20Is in , Australia are averaging No Full Member nation has a worse record in that time by either metric.

The new batter is Wade. Australia need 74 off Warner in the thick of things. First a six of a double bounce, which from the way he played I'm sure was something he'd practiced. Then, not reviewing a ball that seems didn't hit his bat. No matter who wins, I'm going to remember those two moments. Shadab gets his fourth wicket!

Australia lose half their side! Maxwell looks for a boundary with a reverse sweep but finds the fielder in the deep. David Warner was as quick to leave the crease as DisneyPlusHS is to jump into an ad break as soon as a wicket falls. Bhai replay ka toh wait kar lia karo. Most subscribers still prefer a live match I feel nocareforthesubscriber.

Australia have Maxwell and Stoinis at the crease, they need 82 off When in doubt, review just review. Wait what, elite honesty? Replays suggest that there was no edge in the Warner dismissal, in fact there seemed to be clear daylight between bat and ball.

Australia had a review but Warner walked straight off. Incredible moment in the game! Huge moment in the game as Shadab gets Warner! The leg-spinner has picked three wickets and is playing a massive role for his team. Warner 49 off 30 slashed at it and got an edge, Rizwan completed a fine catch. Pakistan on top! Maxwell tapped it towards cover and set off for a single but Zaman got to it quickly and released the throw. Langer with his hand covering his face in the dugout.

Wonder what the owners of SRH are thinking as they watch Warner roaring back into form Smith departs for 5 off 6 as Shadab gets his second wicket. The new batter is Maxwell. Hafeez starts his spell with a delivery that bounces twice, Warner steps out and muscles it over mid-wicket for six. Gavaskar in commentary says he has never seen anything like that. Steve Smith's T20 strike rate in his first ten balls is just , the lowest of any recognised batter in Australia's squad.

Shadab strikes in his first over! Marsh mistimed it, the ball went high, it was swirling, but Asif got under it nicely to complete the catch in the deep. Marsh walks back for 28 off 22 as Smith comes to the crease. He dropped one short and Marsh pulled it comfortably for four.

Pakistan need to pull things back quickly. Of course, Pakistan could also turn to Hafeez to offset the damage if any from Hassan. Rauf joins the attack, bowls it short and Marsh pulls it for six. Babar did not look pleased with that effort. Warner goes after Imad! The left-arm spinner dropped it slightly short and the left-hander went bang, a huge six over mid-wicket.

Australia will need to put the pressure back on Pakistan. Before this match, Aaron Finch had fallen to a left-arm pacer only twice in his T20I career avg Shaheen Shah Afridi nailed him with the very first ball.

Match-ups don't work against the exceptional talents! Just five off it. Keeps the pressure on. However, it goes, I don't think from here on this game can quite live up to the standards set by Shaheen Shah Afridi's first over. Struck Marsh on the toe and took a review too. By Web Desk.

What a beginning for Afridi. Malik plays all around a straight ball and loses his middle stump. Does what he was required to. Launches the ball into the night sky and into the long on stands. He goes big again and this time, he slogs the ball over deep mid-wicket for 6.

Only Smith can answer that. Zaman miscues a big hit and Smith drops a regulation high catch. How costly will that be for the Aussies? The move fails to work as Asif Ali is gone for a duck while trying to hit a six.

Into the slot from Starc and Zaman uses phenomenal bat speed and bottom hand to tonk the ball over long on for six. A low full toss and Zaman goes down the ground and almost takes out the umpire.

The ball holds up just perfectly for Rizwan as he clubs the ball over deep square leg for 6. The physios are out for the mandatory concussion test as Starc's bouncer strikes Rizwan on the grill.

It was flat and fast from Zampa and a cap-less and Helmet-less Rizwan sets the crowd on fire again. More runs and he is turning it around here. The leg spinner beat the bat and the keeper to run away to the third man fence for 4 byes.

He is gone and Zampa gets the big fish. After 2 dots and three singles, Azam looks to clear long on but fails to. Mitchell Marsh has been introduced into the attack.

And he is welcomed by a boundary by Azam. He gets to T20I runs with a swipe through deep mid-wicket for 4. Azam is the fastest batter to get the landmark. It just keeps getting better. A full-toss on the pads from Cummins and Rizwan times the flick to perfection. Maxwell puts in a desperate dive at deep square leg but fails to save the boundary.

He sweeps Maxwell behind deep square leg for 4. This man's class can light up anyone! Just fractionally four from Hazlewood and Babar Azam, on the up, creams the ball through cover-point for 4.

Inside edge! Rizwan has a nervy moment on the very first ball. The ball edges towards Wade, who does well to keep it just one. He timed the ball perfectly to cover the previous ball but this time, he puts it away off his thigh pad as Starc goes straight and Babar Azam collects four through fine leg. Pakistan openers Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan have taken guard. Mitchell Starc to open Australia's attack. Right, then!

We are just a couple of minutes away from the start. The team and the officials have walked out for the national anthems. This will be the first time in this tournament that PAK will be batting first in Dubai. Batting first- 2 wins Batting second- 3 wins.

T20 World Cup Pakistan vs Australia Live: Finch's good toss form continues, if that's a thing you like to believe in. Fifth toss won by Aaron Finch in six matches this tournament; chased on all five instances and won the previous four. I didn't feel like I had the rhythm or the smoothness in my run-up coming over here but I think it has progressed through the tournament.

I have been feeling good in the last week or 10 days. It the tournament has been interesting. There's a great feeling amongst the group, it has been pretty chilled as it has been a bit longer to the lead-up to this game.

Excited to be here, a big opportunity for us and looking forward to a good show. You have to pay attention to their top order but at the same time we have to focus on what we do well, it is 20 overs and at certain stages they are going to put a partnership or come hard at us and are a different team to say an England side who like to come hard from ball one.
