Pakistan 116 for 1 (Azam 55*, Latif 34*) beat West Indies 115 (Bravo 55, Taylor 21, Wasim 5-14) by nine wickets Scorecard and ball-by-ball detailsThe surface in Dubai was cracked, but there seemed to be more cracks in the batting line-up of the World T20 champions. Imad Wasim exploited all those cracks and rolled West Indies over for 115. In the process, the left-arm spinning allrounder became only the second Pakistan bowler, after Umar Gul, to take a five-for in T20Is. Pakistan then merrily skipped to the target with 34 balls to spare to hint at a white-ball revival, having secured their second successive nine-wicket win in T20Is.The portents were clear from the first over, after Pakistan had opted to bowl. Taking the new ball, Wasim had Evin Lewis top-edging a catch to deep midwicket. In his next over, he accounted for Andre Fletcher and Marlon Samuels to leave West Indies at 16 for 3. A raft of balls fizzed through and thudded into the pad, drawing appeals from an ever-present slip and captain Sarfraz Ahmed. Looking at the scorecard, it may have appeared that Wasim was bowling magic balls. Truth be told, he didnt turn them much. Instead, he relied on accuracy and drift to run through West Indies.Fletcher attempted a low-percentage slog across the line and was bowled. Samuels technique of camping back in the crease was exposed again when he was trapped plumb in front by a full slider. Wasim alternated between a good length and a full length, and kept attacking the stumps. West Indies kept losing wickets.Mohammad Nawaz, the other left-arm spinner, joined the fun when Johnson Charles stepped away outside leg and missed a fast, skiddy delivery. Debutant Nicholas Pooran guided Hasan Ali, the medium-fast bowler, behind in the next over, before Wasim returned and stabbed away at West Indies.When Wasim dismissed Carlos remember the name Brathwaite, he ensured his name would be remembered too, as he became the first Pakistan spinner to pick up a five-wicket haul in T20Is. He finished with figures of 4-0-14-5. He had only bowled only one genuine loose ball: a half-tracker, which was square-cut for four by Samuels.At 48 for 8 in 12 overs, following the run-out of Sunil Narine, West Indies were in danger of being bowled out for their lowest T20I score. Dwayne Bravo and Jerome Taylor, however, strung together 66, the highest ninth-wicket partnership in T20Is.Taylor first upset Pakistans rhythm when he raced down the track and lofted Nawaz straight over his head for the first six of the match. Bravo, becalmed till then, drove Sohail Tanvir inside-out over extra-cover for six and followed it with a flicked four to rejuvenate the innings.They hit a higher gear when they took three fours in the 16th over, bowled by Ali. This meant West Indies passed their previous-lowest score of 79. Tanvir, however, ended the stand when he yorked Taylor for a run-a-ball 21. He ended the innings when he undid Bravo for 55 with a legcutter three balls later. With only Bravo and Taylor logging double-digit scores, the recovery would not be prove enough for West Indies.Sharjeel Khan set Pakistans modest chase in motion with three fours and a six before his old enemy resurfaced: tendency to pull balls that arent short enough. He was bowled by a length-ball dart from Samuel Badree for 22, but the wicket only served to alter the margin of victory rather than provide West Indies with any real hope.The advent of dew did not help West Indies cause either. Their misery was compounded by slipshod fielding. Taylor dropped Babar Azam on 12 at the edge of the long-leg boundary. Azam proceeded to seal the chase with back-to-back fours, the first of which snuck through Bravos legs to the third-man boundary and gave Azam his maiden T20I half-century.Opener Khalid Latif complemented him, contributing 30 in an unbroken 88-run stand for the second wicket. West Indies had managed all of 12 boundaries in their innings. Azam and Latif alone hit 13. While West Indies seemed to be missing their Champions - Andre Russell, Chris Gayle and Lendl Simmons - Pakistan found their own amid roars of Champion, Champion from the sizeable crowd.

This is good or evil; fairytale or nightmare.Thats how the AFL grand final appears to the average punter.In the good corner, the Western Bulldogs: downtrodden, blue-collar battlers from suburban Melbourne, seeking just their second premiership, and first since 1954.In the evil corner, Sydney: the silver-tail Swans, perennial finalists who steal star players from rivals, chasing a sixth flag - and third in 11 years.Every sport needs heroes and villains. And the AFL showpiece delivers them.Its not Sydneys fault that everyone - bar their own supporters - want them to lose.The same fate would have befallen any club who played the Bulldogs in the decider.The underDogs are in their first grand final since 1961. The Swans are contesting their fifth since 2005.And the Swans, with Hawthorn and Geelong, have shared nine of the past 11 premierships - neutral fans cherish a break.The outsiders, the underDogs, have come from seventh in this finals series. The favourites, the Swans, finished top.The underDogs play with dash and dare, attacking in a style which captivates the neutral supporter.The Swans strangle opponents with an often dour defensive-first mantra. Respected? For sure. Loved? Nup.Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge gives his underDogs licence to get off the leash. Swans coach John Longmire tightens the chains.But thats the off-field narrative. Of course, this premiership will be decided on the field.In the Sydney corner, there are shining stars everywhere.Theres Lance Franklin and Kurt Tippett - two players Sydney pinched from rivals on multi-million dollars deals.Do the underDogs have players capable of controlling them? Particularly Franklin.dddddddddddd He has been there, done that with Hawthorn, and looms as the ace in the grand final pack.Theres Dan Hannebery and Josh Kennedy - Sydneys premier midfielders who are prolific ball-winners who rarely have their colours lowered.Theres renowned Swan defenders Nick Smith and Dane Rampe; theres the brilliance of Isaac Heeney and Gary Rohan, who can run like the wind and swing a game in the blink of an eye.Just how can the underDogs contain them?By doing what they have done all through this finals series.Play on the edge. Attack the ball and opponents with the ferociousness of, well, a starving Bulldog eyeing its next meal.Stick to their system. Its a system which Beveridges Bulldogs have deployed with magnificent effect in these finals with stunning triumphs - on the road against West Coast; ending Hawthorns reign; pipping Greater Western Sydneys upstarts, again on the road.The underDogs will turn to their game-busters who, in number, fall well below Sydneys.But top Dog Marcus Bontempelli has risen to every challenge - is there a better 20-year-old footballer in the land?Also emerging are terrier midfielders Luke Dalhaus and Tom Liberatore. Then theres Jake Stringer.Hes no Franklin just yet. But if he gets on fire, theres no stopping the devastation.Much depends on how the underDogs handle the early heat - Sydneys past two finals have been won by quarter-time.The opening looms as decisive. Can the good hold sway against the villains? Or will the fairytale rapidly turn into a nightmare?
