“Definitely happy, the team is playing very well, winning is always good. We didn’t bowl well, made some basic mistakes, myself and Rizwan started well with Nawaz finishing it off. We will learn from this and think the middle-order stepping up is good for the team. We will have to field better though, that’s one area where improvement is needed, we’ll try to give our 100% in tomorrow’s final” said Pakistan skipper Babar Azam who scored 55 in the game.
