Australia into WC T20 final

In an unbelievable finish, Mike Hussey snatched a berth in the final for Pakistan in a match-turning 60 not out off 24 balls as he smashed 22 runs in the last four balls of the 20th over to set up a final date with England on Sunday.

Brothers Kamran and Umar Akmal both scored fifties as defending champions Pakistan set Australia an imposing 192 to win their World Twenty20 semi-final here on Friday.

Pakistan, sent in by Australia captain Michael Clarke after rain delayed the scheduled start and threatened to bring the Duckworth-Lewis system, thought to favour the side batting second, into play, made a fine start.
