A steady half century from Babar Azam and Shoaib Malik's 18-ball 54 - the joint-fastest in the T20 World Cup this year - helped Pakistan post 189 for four in their last Super 12 match against Scotland in Sharjah on Sunday.

Pakistan are eyeing early wickets against Scotland after Shoaib Malik hit a blistering knock of 54 not out off 18 balls as his posted a commanding total of 189/4 in their Super 12 game at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. Earlier, Pakistan got off to a steady start after winning the toss and opting to bat first. They lost Mohammad Rizwan, Fakhar Zaman and Mohammad Hafeez but continued to add runs on the board. Skipper Babar Azam hit a half-century, his fourth of the ongoing T20 World Cup, before departing for the score of 66 to give his side the platform for a big total. Pakistan have already qualified for the semi-finals at the back of some inspiring performances in the first four games. Scotland, on the other hand, will look to put on a fight and look for an upset win against the current tournament favourites. Pakistan need to avoid defeat in order to top the group ahead of New Zealand.

ICC Twenty20 World Cup | Shoaib Malik blasts 18-ball 54 as Pakistan scores competitive total

Veteran Shoaib Malik blasted six sixes in an unbeaten 18-ball 54 after Babar Azam's fourth half-century of the tournament as Pakistan posted 189 for four against Scotland in their final Super 12 match of the T20 World Cup in Sharjah on Sunday.

Thanks to Malik's blitz, Pakistan scored 43 runs in the last two overs, including 26 in the final six balls bowled by Chris Greaves. It was tournament's joint fastest fifty alongside K L Rahul's 18-ball 50 which also came against Scotland.

Babar, who once again donned the role of the accumulator, became only the third batter to score four half-centuries in a T20 World Cup after former Australia opener Matthew Hayden and India captain Virat Kohli, who achieved the feat in 2007 and 2014 respectively.

An excellent innings from Babar Azam. Despite the regular fall of wickets, Babar remained undeterred and continued a healthy strike-rotation, while punishing the occasional bad deliveries. He slams his half-century off 40 balls.
