It’s all come down to this. Three and a half weeks of amazing highs and debilitating lows later, the T20 World Cup has undulated to its climax, the explosiveness of Pakistan coming up against the ferocity of England. It will take a brave man to predict which way the pendulum will swing, given the very nature of the format and the extraordinary turn of events in Australia since Namibia stunned Sri Lanka in the opener on October 16, though the one forecast everyone will be wary of is that for sustained bursts of rain on Sunday as well as reserve-day Monday.
Both teams have taken the harder route to the title round, overcoming massive setbacks early on to find themselves within one win of joining West Indies as two-time winners of the World Cup.
