Mohammad Rizwan, “Luckily, the fifty was in the semifinal. Babar and I were struggling but we worked hard and believed. We kept fighting. When we finished the powerplay, we knew one of us had to bat deep as it was a tricky pitch.”
Here are some of the best fan reactions on this game.

Shan Masood scores the winning runs as Pakistan record a seven wicket win to make it into the finals of the World Cup 2022. What a journey it has been for the for the Men in Green who made it to the semi finals of the tournament on the basis of a massive upset that saw South Africa lose to Netherlands on the final day of the Super 12 stage.
The Pakistan batter is angry with himself as he fails to finish the game for his side. Pakistan need just 2 runs off the last over to make it into the finals of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022. Finn Allen take the catch to get the third wicket.

The Pak star hits it straight to the fielder off a high full toss which was checked to be a no-ball. However, New Zealand managed to run him out at the non-striker’s end. Either way the full toss stands as Rizwan is declared out caught by Ferguson.

The Men in Green have managed to score 47 runs off the first five overs with Babar Azam 19 (16)and Mohammad Rizwan 27(14) playing with a lot of aggression. Looks like they want to wrap up the game in a hurry.
Such a slippery format t20 is, you think you're in control after 10 overs when opposition is at 50 or 60 with 2, 3 or even 4 wickets down yet they can end at 150-160+ after completion of innings and that's the beauty of this format..#PakvsNz #T20Iworldcup2022 #Askthepavilion

Devon Conway fails to keep hold off the ball after the Pakistan skipper edges it straight back to the wicket-keeper. The missed chance could prove to be quite costly for the Kiwis. 7-0 after the first over!
Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam are at the crease for Pakistan with Trent Boult set to bowl the first over for New Zealand. He will be eager to provide his side with a good start.
A fighting innings from Daryll Mitchell propels the Kiwis to a 150+ score after a slow start to their innings. Pakistan will be very happy with the target and back themselves.

New Zealand have the lowest dot ball percentage in this World Cup as they have managed to take singles and keep the scoreboard ticking. The same skill is on display in the semi final but it eventually hurts them. Shadab Khan with a brilliant piece of fielding makes a direct-hit at the bowler’s end as Conway falls short of the ground! The opener departs on the last ball of overplay as the Black Caps are 38-2 after 6 overs.

However, the third ball works for the Pak speedster as he manages to trap the NZ opener straight up. No review to save Allen this time around. Kiwis lose their first wicket. 6-1 after the first over.

New Zealand vs Pakistan Live Updates, ICC T20 World Cup 2022 Semi Final 1, Ball To Ball Commentary, Match Details And More: The culmination of the Super 12 phase of the ICC T20 World Cup ended on Sunday and witnessed a dramatic upsets as we head into the two semi-final fixtures of the tournament. The first clash in the final four sees Asian giants Pakistan square off against New Zealand at the Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney. This fixture is set to be played on 9th November 2022 and handed a kick-off time of 7:00 PM local time, which translates to 1: 30 PM IST.
New Zealand will head into the game as one of the most consistent sides in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022. The Kiwis started off the competition with a massive win over Australia in their tournament opener. However, their next clash against Afghanistan was abandoned without a ball being bowled due to rain.
The Black Caps bounced back in the winning ways against Sri Lanka before suffering a 20-run loss to England in their fourth outing. In the end, a 35-run win over Ireland in the 37th Match of the Super 12 stage was enough to seal a top spot in Group 1 and cement a semi-final slot for the Kiwis.
Pakistan had the worst possible start to the tournament, having lost two of the opening encounters. The Men in Green suffered back-to-back losses against India and Zimbabwe, which made their chances of qualification quite slim. However, consecutive wins against Netherlands, South Africa, and Bangladesh saw Babar Azam’s men progress further in the tournament.
Kane Williamson (c), Tim Southee, Ish Sodhi, Mitchell Santner, Glenn Phillips, Jimmy Neesham, Daryl Mitchell, Adam Milne, Martin Guptill, Lachlan Ferguson, Devon Conway, Mark Chapman, Michael Bracewell, Trent Boult, Finn Allen.
