Australia dumped Pakistan out of the World T20 and set up a winner-takes-all clash with hosts India on Sunday courtesy of a 21-run victory in Mohali. Steve Smith (61no from 43) top scored for Australia in a total of 193-4, the skipper sharing rollicking, 38-ball stands of 62 with Glenn Maxwell (30 from 18) and an unbeaten 74 with the soon-to-retire Shane Watson (44no from 28).Spinner Adam Zampa (2-32) then accounted for the dangerous Umar Akmal (32 from 20) and Pakistan skipper Shahid Afridi (14 from seven) as the 2009 champions were restricted to 172-8, James Faulkner (5-27) firing at the death to complete the best bowling figures by an Australian in T20Is.Pakistans defeat was their third in four games in Group 2 and leaves them unable to progress to the semi-finals, with the victor of this weekends Australia-India encounter - the sides currently locked together on four points - joining table-toppers New Zealand in the last four.Usman Khawaja (21 off 16) made a brisk start in his first match against the country of his birth, before being clean bowled by a Wahab Riaz yorker in the fourth over, two balls after pulling the searing left-armer for a sumptuous six over deep backward square. Wahab Riaz (R) bowled Usman Khawaja and David Warner David Warner (nine) - up a spot to No 3 in a rejigged Australia bating line-up that saw Aaron Finch drafted in to open and Watson drop from the top of the order to No 6 - fell in similar fashion two overs later, Wahab (2-35) rattling the top of his middle stump.Finchs dismissal shortly after, the burly opener bowled by spinner Imad Wasim for 15, saw Smiths men slip to 57-3, but the skipper and Maxwell powered on, the latter drilling a superb maximum over long-off just prior to being caught at long-on off Imad (2-31). Maxwells exit didnt disrupt the scoring, with Smith reaching his second T20I fifty from 35 deliveries - his other, an effort of 90, coming against England in Cardiff last August - and Watson nailing three sixes and four fours as Australia plundered 66 runs from the final five overs.Sharjeel Khan (30 from 19) started like a train for Pakistan, much like he did against New Zealand on Wednesday when cracking 47 from 25 balls, but his opening partner, Ahmed Shehzad (one) fell cheaply, top-edging an attempted slog off the recalled Josh Hazlewood to mid-off.Sharjeels enterprising knock, which featured nine boundaries, came to an end when he chopped Faulkner onto his stumps in the sixth over, though Pakistan rebounded in the seventh with Akmal walloping Watson for 17 runs, including for six over midwicket. Sharjeel Khan powered nine fours from his opening berth Akmal, though, came unstuck against Zampa, bowled middle pole after missing an almighty heave to leg, and Pakistans hopes diminished further when Afridi - perhaps in his final T20I - was stumped having launched the leg-spinner over the ropes the ball before.Afridis men looked beaten way before Faulkner dismissed top scorer Khalid Latif (46 from 41) and Imad (0) from successive balls in the 18th and, needing 30 from Faulkners final over, could only muster eight, with Sarfraz Ahmed (two) and Wahab (0) caught out in the process.Watch highlights of Australias game with Pakistan at 6.30pm on Sky Sports 2 and then catch their crunch clash with India, in Mohali, from 1.30pm on Sunday on the same channel.
