Pakistan vs South Africa SCG Attendance 30,351 2022 T20 World Cup November 3 Sydney Match Report

A fine all round performance from Shadab Khan kept Pakistan’s slim hopes of semi-final qualification alive as they beat South Africa in front of a 30,351 strong crowd at the Sydney Cricket Ground. The Islamabad United star smashed a quickfire 52 (22) with the bat and added 82 in 6 overs with Iftikhar Ahmed after Pakistan had been reduced to 95/5 in 13 overs.

Shadab’s first over with the ball also saw him pick up Temba Bavuma and Aiden Markram, and that double wicket over was crucial as it came just before rain interrupted play. The two wickets saw South Africa fall way behind on DLS, and when it resumed, they were left needing 73 off the last five, an almost impossible task given that four of them were to be bowled by the Pakistani quicks.

Earlier, Pakistan won the toss and decided to bat, but again lost Mohammad Rizwan cheaply. Muhammad Haris, only playing because the injured Fakhar Zaman had been ruled out of the tournament, however gave the innings some much needed impetus as he hit 28 in just 11 balls. Haris was particularly severe on Kagiso Rabada, hitting the latter for two sixes and a four in the same over. Anrich Nortje however trapped him in front, and the wickets of Babar and Shan Masood followed immediately after, leaving Pakistan at 43/4.

South Africa had however left out Keshav Maharaj to include Tabraiz Shamsi, and Pakistan slowly started to wrest control back in the period that the spinner and Rabada were bowling. Mohammad Nawaz looked good in his 22 ball 28, but was LBW to Shamsi- there was an obvious inside edge but he chose not to take the review as Ngidi had run him out anyway.

The result sees India take a major step towards the semi-finals- an important victory for them after losing to South Africa in Perth a few days ago in front of over 44,000 fans.

New Zealand Black Caps vs England Gabba Attendance 22,547 T20 World Cup Brisbane November 1 2022 Super 12 Match

England gave their hopes of qualifying for the semi-finals a huge boost, and at the same time, dented that of hosts Australia, as they beat New Zealand in front of a 22,547 strong crowd at the Gabba in Brisbane.

The result now means England, New Zealand and Australia all have 5 points with one game to play, but the hosts’ inferior net run rate, coupled with the fact that England play their game against Sri Lanka later and will know exactly what to do, puts them in a weak position ahead of the final round of games.

The Gabba pitch seemed to assist spin more than pace, and it was reflected in the NZ bowling effort, where Mitch Santner and Ish Sodhi were both economical, but the rest (Boult, Southee, Ferguson) all went for over 10 an over.
