Pakistan vs Australia, 2nd Semi-Final

Series : ICC Men's T20 World Cup

PAK
176/4 (20)
AUS
177/5 (19)

Australia won by 5 wickets

Babar Azam (Pakistan Captain): We started well in the first half. We had the total that we wanted. The bowling was good in the first half but we didn't hit our mark in the second innings. The catch was a turning point. It could have been a different scenario then. As a player, you have to be ready for anything that comes your way. I am pleased with my team's performance in the tournament. When you play so well in the tournament, you have to do it on the day as well. You can't relax and be complacent. The boys have played really well. They fulfilled their roles and put in performances, which will bode well for the future. The support that we had was immense. We always enjoy playing in UAE. They always support us and we enjoyed that very much.
