All eyes set on #PAKvsAUS semi final; Check out cricket pundits predictions
All eyes are set on the second semi-final of the ICC’s T20 World Cup Pakistan vs Australia to be played tonight at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium at 7 pm PST.
Team Pakistan has been so far unbeaten in 16 consecutive matches of the ongoing tournament.
The one other plus point is that Green Shirts have not lost even a single T20 since 2016 on UAE soil.
However, Pakistan does not have an enviable record against the Kangaroos in the ICC event’s knock-out contests.
Both teams have clashed 17 times in ICC events; of them, Australia won 10 times and Pakistan seven times.
While six of these matches were for the T20 World Cup and both teams won three times each.
For tonight’s match, cricket pundits are of the view that the Babar Azam-led side is in the best form and will win tonight. And we say InshaAllah.
Well, the cricket great Brian Lara backs Babar Azam-led Pakistan to beat dangerous Australia in Semi-Final!
“Australia is a very dangerous team. They’ve got a strong lineup that can beat anyone. But Pakistan has the bowling & batting prowess to keep them at bay & make the finals,” Lara tweeted.

Mike Atherton "I'm going with Pakistan, they've got the best & most varied bowling attack in this competition. Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, the spinners, the kind of combinations they have. They've got the best attack & I think they'll win the semi-final" #T20WorldCup #PAKvAUS

Give your 100% & stay positive & aggressive. Kamyaabi denay wali Allah ki zaat hai. Shabaash & good luck. #PAKVSAUS
Pakistan has never beaten Australia in any ICC tournament's knockout match. Since Pakistan is on a spree of achieving feats and breaking jinxes, let's pray and hope that we INSHALLAH beat Australia and end this jinx as well.#PAKvAUS #PAKVSAUS #SemiFinals #T20WorldCup
