Team News:
Australia is by no means easygoing, in fact, Pakistan is a bit unlucky to face them in the semis. England or New Zealand would have been better teamed for them to play with.
The Pakistan team is currently in great form as they have won all their five T20 international games recently. Australia, on the other side, has also been in tremendous form throughout the tournament. 402 of the 640 runs they have scored in this tournament have come from the top three batsmen.
Pitch and conditions:
This track has been used three times before this World Cup, and all have produced good scores. Apart from the dew in the evening, which is common in Dubai, there is little concern regarding the pitch.

Pakistan also has an incredible record in the UAE. They have won 16 consecutive T20s in the UAE. The last time they failed was in a Super Over against England in November 2015.
