Right then. Pakistan will face Australia and New Zealand will lock horns against England in the semi-finals. But, there is still one more game left in the Super 12s. On 8th November, India will take on Namibia. Both these teams would want to finish the competition with a win. The match will start at 6 pm Local (2 pm GMT). Do join us there. Till then, take care and goodbye.

The winning skipper, Babar Azam, says that they are playing as a unit and that's why they are playing consistent cricket. Mentions that their plan was to bat well and credits Malik for his finishing and also his terrific knock. Tells that they will try to keep this momentum and make sure they play like this against Australia as well. Adds that it feels good to play in front of the fans and the way they come here for them feels amazing.

Kyle Coetzer, the Scotland skipper, is in for a chat. He thinks that they bowled brilliantly today in the Powerplay. Mentions, when you have a batting lineup like Pakistan have, the batters are going to find the boundary but he is proud of the fight his side put in. He hopes that they have inspired a few kids back at home and they will try to take the Scottish side upwards from here. Mentions that they are going to take the experience away from here and will make sure that they study Australian pitches before the next T20 World Cup. Ends by saying that they are really happy to get this exposure and this will be crucial to their learnings.

Shoaib Malik wins the Man of the Match award for his gun-blazing effort with the blade. He says that he had in his mind to get at least 150 and not lose many wickets early on. Mentions, he took a couple of deliveries to assess himself and then managed to build on the slow start. Adds that winning is a big thing, the side will take a lot of momentum going deep into the competition. Ends by saying, he seems to be fit to play the game and wants to keep challenging himself.

Stay tuned for the presentation.

A brilliant bowling show yet again by Pakistan. Their bowlers have been sensational in the competition and this game was no different. All the bowlers delivered and Pakistan were always in control of the situation. Shadab Khan continued his brilliant form and took 2 wickets while giving only 14 runs. The rest of the bowlers did their job well too. Babar Azam would be very happy with the way his team has played in the Super 12s and they should be immensely proud of being the only unbeaten team so far.

Scotland were never in the chase. They did not get off to a great start and they were always behind the required rate. Dealing with this quality bowling attack proved to be too big a challenge for them. All their batters, with the exception of Richie Berrington, faltered and the game was practically over before the death overs. Berrington got to his fifty but had no other batter support him in the middle. In the end, they fell short by 72 runs.

Pakistan are unbeaten! What a run this team has experienced in the competition. To finish unbeaten in the Super 12s is no small feat and they should be mighty proud of themselves. Scotland, on the other hand, are on the other end of the spectrum as they finish their World Cup without a single win in the Super 12s. They did show a lot of promise in the earlier round but failed to deliver in the Super 12s. But, they will learn a lot from this and will hopefully emerge a stronger side in the future.

Is that caught behind? The umpire takes it upstairs to confirm. The soft-signal is not out. The replays show the ball bounces in front of Rizwan. The third umpire denies to have a look at the UltraEdge after seeing this. Not out.

Hasan Ali (3-1-22-1) comes back into the attack.
