This is some garbage batting from Pakistan here. Afridi and go needs to bowl their heart out or this will be a repeat of the India match

Pak bowling is good but it's not that good to defend poor scores. These Pak games looks highly suspect.
Eng was coasting but all of a sudden slowed down on purpose lol.

SSA injuring himself changed the entire scenario lol.
I'd like to think that's karma for that outrageous Shakib wicket.

With these 120 130 scores you will never defend it even if you have insane bowling lineup. Pak lost once their batting innings ended. Against England you need minimum 160.

True, but you never know. Eng was choking there at the end before SSA went off, their rr was around 10 near end of the PP and somehow still allowed the rrr to go to 9. Ben Stokes slow batting almost cost them the match and if SSA was still bowling results could have been much closer or even an Eng loss.
Regardless, Eng are deserved winners. Pak had no business making it to the semis let alone the damn finals with that uninspiring batting line up, their openers score slower than ours in the PP ffs, and SA shockingly losing to Ned. Don't have to continue hearing about the '92 superstitions and something something about God's will

SSA makes the biggest difference in their bowling. He is not even fit but still bowled really well. BD need start learning how to play him.
At last this T20 tamasha comes to an end. Hopefully we can focus on ODI now.

To be fair Ifti Cha Cha almost picked up Ben Stokes wicket but Pak never really was in the game. In T20 picking up wickets don't mean much if you don't put up good scores. Just like in our match we only scored like 128, we never have a chance with that kind of scores.

Lol it was a series of very fortunate events/luck that allowed them to even make it to the finals. Unfortunately for them, to balance that all out, the bad luck had to strike in the finals

It was tense match really.
Pakas thought a miracle remake like 1992 World Cup would be made.
Blessing in disguise was the Afridi getting injured while taking the catch.
Alex Hales is garbage. The leprechaun Eion Morgan is unbearable behind the Mike.

I mean scoring 130 and expecting to win the final against a batting heavy England side was never going to happen. Some miracle needed to occur. What a pathetic display for a final match

England has good team, with world class players (Kane, Foden, Bukayo, Sterling, Bellingham).
Only Brazil, France and Portugal have better squad.
Brazil is favourite, France has issue in the midfield, Portugal is strong but their fate depend on how Ronaldo plays and how the team play with him.
All in all England has a serious chance
