T20 World Cup Final 2022: Ben Stokes kept his composure with an undefeated half-century as England won the Twenty20 World Cup for the second time by defeating Pakistan by five wickets on Sunday at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. English turned the tables on the south Asians with excellent death bowling and with Stokes finishing on 52 not out in a chase of 138 for victory, thirty years after losing the 50-over World Cup final to Pakistan at the MCG.Pakistan looked capable of defending the total when they dialled up the pressure but Stokes and Moeen Ali turned it around with some big hits in the last five overs. Earlier, it was Sam Curran who led the way for England with figures of 3/12.
Both teams were unchanged from their semi-finals.
England skipper Jos Buttler had won the toss and opted to bowl first in the game.
England (Playing XI): Jos Buttler(w/c), Alex Hales, Philip Salt, Ben Stokes, Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, Chris Woakes, Chris Jordan, Adil Rashid.
Pakistan (Playing XI): Babar Azam(c), Mohammad Rizwan(w), Mohammad Haris, Shan Masood, Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Mohammad Wasim Jr, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, Shaheen Afridi.
The T20 World Cup 2022 final will be played on Sunday at the historic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) between Pakistan under Babar Azam and England under Jos Buttler (November 13). Given that both teams have improved in the midst of the competition and appear to have found their best playing XI, the game is predicted to be a nail-biting contest. With Mark Wood's declaration of being healthy for the championship, England has gained significantly. The competition got off to a rocky start for Pakistan and England alike. In reality, Pakistan dropped both of its opening games against Zimbabwe and India.
The Australian MET department reports that there is a 100% possibility of precipitation on Reserve Day on Monday, November 14, as well as Sunday, which is when the final will be played. On Reserve Day, additional time may be played to decide who will win the T20 World Cup 2022 championship.
