Muhammad Rizwan and Babar Azam flexed their bowling arms in the nets for Pakistan. While the team’s premium speedster Shaheen Shah Afridi was on the other end playing some beautiful strokes.
Pakistan reached the final with a thumping 7-wicket win over NewZealand. England meanwhile defeated India by 10 wickets in Adelaide on Thursday.
England’s massive 10-wicket win against India has helped them in setting up a T20 World Cup final clash against Pakistan. Both teams finished second from their respective groups in the Super 12s and their chances of securing a semi-final spot at one stage looked very unlikely.
But both sides made a terrific comeback not only to reach the semis but also to go all the way to the finals. The two teams last met in a World Cup final in 1992, which Pakistan won. England will be looking to set the record straight now by lifting the trophy at the iconic MCG in Melbourne.
