Pakistan
first
restricted
New
Zealand
from
posting
a
big
total
after
the
latter
opted
to
bat
first.
Kane
Williamson-led
side
posted
a
below-par
152
for
the
loss
of
four
wickets.
While
Daryl
Mitchell
smashed
a
quickfire
fifty
and
Kane
Williamson
posted
a
slow
42-ball
46
but
that
wasn’t
enough
for
the
BlackCaps
bowlers
to
defend.
In
response,
Babar
Azam
and
Mohammad
Rizwan
shared
a
stand
of
105
runs
to
put
Pakistan
in
the
driver’s
seat
and
helped
their
team
clinch
an
easy
win.
From
a
back
door
entry
to
a
seat
at
the
main
table;
netizens
laud
Pakistan
for
entering
T20
World
Cup
final
In
the
second
semi-final
of
the
tournament,
India
will
take
on
England
and
many
are
hoping
for
an
India
vs
Pakistan
contest
in
the
final
on
Sunday
(November
13).
Former
Australia
cricketer
and
current
mentor
of
the
Pakistan
side,
Matthew
Hayden,
is
also
hoping
for
a
grand
finale
between
the
arch-rivals.
Reacting
over
Pakistan’s
one-sided
win
over
New
Zealand,
Hayden
said,
“Tonight
was
very
special.
That
fast
bowling
attack
you
saw
did
an
unbelievable
job.
I
don’t
think
we
have
seen
our
best
yet,
which
is
probably
the
scarier
part
for
whoever
faces
us
(in
the
final).
Could
be
a
truer
surface
and
a
nicer
batting
track
in
Melbourne.”
Talking
about
the
performance
of
Babar
and
Rizwan
and
the
batting
effort
against
New
Zealand,
the
51-year-old
said,
“Sky
is
the
limit.
You
can
never
beat
down
class.
Both
of
these
guys
have
done
it
for
a
number
of
years.
Haris
has
smashed
every
bowler
in
the
nets.”
T20
World
Cup
2022:
Babar
Azam-Mohammad
Rizwan
help
Pakistan
enter
WC
final
after
13
years
The
legendary
Aussie
batter
lauded
Pakistan
bowlers
for
their
effort
and
claimed
he’s
also
hoping
for
an
India-Pakistan
showdown
in
the
final,
“The
bowlers
had
to
adapt
to
this
pitch
and
bowl
slower
balls
and
they
did
so
well.
Haris
Rauf
is
bowling
consistently
in
the
150s
(kmph).
If
Pakistan
on
their
day
turn
up,
they
are
unstoppable.
Shadab
is
a
great
fighter.
To
win
any
tournament
you
got
to
fight.
I
would
like
to
play
India
in
the
final
purely
because
of
the
big
spectacle.”
