Bangladesh had a strong start to the innings, with 70 runs at the midway point, but they came apart totally in the second half. Shanto played a good hand with his 50, but no other batter ever supported him.

Then, as Pakistan applied pressure to the batsmen in the last overs, Shaheen Afridi’s first four-wicket haul in a Twenty20 match of his career, and what a game to do it. Today was the first day of the tournament that he appeared at his best. For Pakistan, everything has actually come together fairly nicely.

The hosts Australia have been eliminated from the semifinals. Australia lost because of an inferior net run rate; New Zealand, England, and Australia all finished with seven points.

India is now in first place in the points standings in group 2 and has advanced to the semifinals. Pakistan defeated Bangladesh in today’s final super 12-round match, and the winners moved on to the semifinals.

Pakistan qualified for the T20 World Cup semi-finals after defeating Bangladesh:

In the first 10 overs, Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam had trouble centering the ball. Early on, Rizwan was given a break when Bangladesh wicketkeeper Nurul Hasan dropped a catch due to a student error. The Bangladeshi bowlers made it difficult for Pakistan to find boundaries, but the two batsmen were unable to change their approaches and fell after the 10th over.

Pakistan has advanced to the semifinals despite suffering painful defeats to India and Zimbabwe, being 43/4 against South Africa, another sluggish start from the openers today, and despite everything else.

Masood brings them in while flicking this wide of a superb leg and sprinting back for two. The audience erupts in a loud cheer. They were given the chance earlier in the day thanks to a significant favor from the Netherlands, and Pakistan seized it. Bangladesh will be eliminated from this group, leaving India and Pakistan.
