Pakistan and England will fight it out to be T20 World Cup champion in the tournament final at Melbourne's MCG on Sunday night.
It's been an engrossing T20 World Cup, surely the best of the eight editions, but the final between England and Pakistan could end in a major anti-climax ...
Only twice before in ODI or T20 World Cup history has a final been contested without one of these countries - in the T20 World Cups of 2009 and 2012. But with some luck, as results unexpectedly fell their way, Pakistan have qualified for the final and are peaking perfectly after thrashing New Zealand in a one-sided semi-final. There were plenty of upsets along the way as the gulf between power countries and smaller nations has seemingly narrowed in a format that is a leveller. There is a reserve day for the final on Monday but it’s not looking much better with 8-15 mm of rain predicted although less likely in the evening. Back then, just over two weeks ago but feels an eternity, captain Babar Azam looked crestfallen at the post-match press conference and even his rallying cry intended to lift his dejected teammates appeared forced. Worse case scenario is that both teams will share the trophy if it’s a washout.
