After 44 entertaining matches, it is down to Pakistan and England, who will square off at the Melbourne Cricket Stadium for the T20 World Cup trophy Sunday.
The two former winners ¬– Pakistan in 2009 and England in 2010 – will be facing each other in the tournament decider for the first time since the famous 1992 ODI World Cup final, where the Men in Green lifted the silverware.
Ahead of the highly-anticipated final, cricket greats have made some interesting predictions about the tournament winner.
Here is what they have to say:
That means playing with an attacking mindset. Good luck; the whole nation is praying for your success.

My personal opinion, man to man, England must surely take the Cup home! BUT, the beauty of Sport tells us it’s just not that simple! Gonna come down to who wants it most, along with the the rhythm and beauty of the game. Who knows?!
