Pakistan scripted a clinical performance to progress in the T20 World Cup 2022 finals against New Zealand. The openers set the game rolling for Pakistan as Rizwan and Babar smoked Kiwi pacers all across the ground. Earlier, the Pakistan bowlers displayed a disiciplined show to restrict the Kiwis to 152 in the first semi final of the T20 World Cup 2022 in Sydney Cricket Ground. Apart from one runout miss, Pakistan were pretty rounded in the field. Shaheen got them off to a great start by having the last laugh against Finn Allen.
An unbeaten half century by Daryl Mitchell, guided New Zealand to 152/4 after 20 overs. Opting to bat first New Zealand lost early wickets as Kiwi openers departed early. Later, Glenn Phillips and Kane Williamson were dismissed before Mitchell smashed his fifty in 32 balls. For Pakistan, Shaheen Afridi scalped two wickets while Mohammad Nawaz scalped one wicket. Babar Azam's men will now await the winner of tomorrow's clash between England and India.
