Big Doug Bracewell may just have knocked out the Proteas. They need everything to go right now.

Pakistan recovered from a sluggish start well with Mohammad Rizwan scoring 73. However, the last over (bowled by Matt Henry) was a wicket maiden. Could that turn the momentum?

Indeed it did, Martin Guptill smashing a near-ton to get the Kiwis home.

PAK 6/163 (20)
NZ 4/165 (17.2)
NZ win by 6 wickets
MOTM: Martin Guptill

The Kiwis will now play Australia in the semis.
 
Ah, was rooting for pakistan. Looks like South Africa are knocked out then. Been a decent run but with players like AB not firing, it was always going to be hard
 
We were well short of the needed total.
Was a fun tournament nonetheless.

WHAT A FINISH! Avishka Fernando scores a quick 60, then the middle over bowlers pull it back, but a last ball six by Lasith Malinga wins it for Sri Lanka!

World T20 Final
Australia vs Sri Lanka

Venue: Eden Gardens

Toss: SL win and choose to bowl

A disaster for Sri Lanka! David Warner has a good case to be Man of the Tournament, and he's only making that stronger by caning 35 from 10 and 50 from 23 here. Even worse, Malinga is out of overs.

1624059054978.png
While Isuru Udana's economy was awful, his wickets prevented Australia from scoring over 200.

Tight bowling from the likes of Zampa has put Australia in control here. The one issue, their main death bowler is bowled out...

For the next bit I'm just going to upload screencaps...

Niroshan Dickwella! He's turned the match around by scoring 58 from the last 4 overs with Shehan! Could there be a twist in the tail?

1624059274167.png
1624059288070.png
Advantage Sri Lanka! Dickwella clobbers Kane Richardson for 27 from the 16th. They need 33 from 4 overs

1624059339789.png
1624059358923.png
HUGE TWIST! Dickwella is run out attempting a two! Sri Lanka only need 20 from 18 but with a new batsman and one striking at 100, that could be a tough ask.

1624059408720.png
1624059424452.png
THE CLUTCH! Shehan Jayasuriya, maybe playing for SL for the last time, hits two fours from Cummins! The match is surely wrapped up!

AUS 5/189 (20)
SL 3/190 (18.3)
SL win by 7 wickets
MOTM: Niroshan Dickwella
MOTT: David Warner.

Thanks to all of you for making this tournament such a spectacular success. It's been a great first experience hosting. And also, what a final! I'll start my next league in a few days.
