    Some good fielding from Pakistan, a great catch!

    Feel for Pakistan but Matthew Wade has done really well there! Come on the Kiwis on Sunday!

    My goodness, please don't let the Aussies win it. Will be cheering on NZ in the final.

    That was Afridi's Chris Jordan moment. Goes to show it can happen to anyone. When you're in the moment and you lose it completely, you just can't seem to be able to shake it off and do something different.

    Reminds me of Stokes all those years ago.

    What a brilliant match. If Hasan Ali had taken that piss easy catch that would have been game over. Then a few balls later it's over anyway with Wade hitting three quick sixes. I feel for Afridi as it was clearly playing on him that his team mate cost him a wicket and the team a final with his butter fingers. One of my favourite bowlers to watch is Afridi.

    I just watched this over here on ESPN+. Three Home Runs*** off the those three balls to win the game. Awesome!

    Matthew Wade was played low down on the roster but hit some home runs in to the end zone to win them the touchdown and a place in the World Series.

    Does whoever win the Final become World Champions, like every other domestic competition over here?

    (Obviously, they do, as it is a World Cup, but I just wanted to be facetious).

    two cracking semi finals, both swinging 1 way then then next and sure the final will provide entertainment
    think the aussie big game mentality will win though but really hope for NZ win and chasing will be their strength again

    It's going to be a nightmare chartered flight to Australia with the Australia team for our test players who are still in Dubai if Australia win this.

    Brilliant knock from Kane. Could be a match winning innings. Well poised match now.
