a miracle happened in Pakistan

 

The journey of the World Cup so far has been full of ups and downs for Pakistan. Defeated in the first match against India. In the second match, Zimbabwe beat by 1 run. Made a great comeback after two defeats and defeated a strong team like South Africa apart from the Netherlands.

 

Despite this, Semi's journey was difficult. Call it a miracle here or fate, or both, Pakistan got their support. South Africa lost to the Netherlands in the last match and the doors of the semis opened for Pakistan. Pakistan defeated Bangladesh in the last match.

 

There is concern about the team's opening partnership, as runs are not coming off the bat of captain Babar Azam. He has scored only 39 runs in 5 matches so far. Fans would like him to play big innings in the semi-finals.

 

Pitch report and weather

 

According to the Australian Meteorological Department, there is a 20% chance of rain in Sydney. However, the overall weather will be good. The wind can blow at a speed of 25 km per hour. This can benefit the pacers of both teams.

 

The team winning the toss first would prefer to bat on the Sydney Cricket Ground pitch. Looking at the batting lineup of both teams, one can expect a high-scoring match. It is easy to defend the score on this ground. It will help the fast bowlers in the beginning. Spinners can show their magic in the middle over.
