Cricket News : Venerable Malik talks after whirlwind 50 against Scotland

Pakistan remained the only unbeaten team at the cricket T20 World Cup and stormed into the semi-finals with an emphatic 72-run win over Scotland in their last Group 2 game on Sunday. The 2009 champions, who won all five of their group games, face Australia in the semi-finals in Dubai on Thursday, a day after England meets New Zealand at Abu Dhabi in the first semi. Shoaib Malik smashed 54 not out off just 18 balls -- Pakistan’s fastest fifty in a Twenty20 game - and captain Babar Azam (66) notched his fourth half-century in the tournament to lead their side to a strong 189-4 after winning the toss and choosing to bat. Scotland could only reach 117-6 and ended the tournament with five successive losses in the Super 12s.
