Pakistan will play New Zealand in the T20 World Cup semi-final clash tomorrow at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG).

The 28-year-old practiced separately for an hour and a half, during which mentor Matthew Hayden was also present.

The side did not have any cricket activity on the ground before the semi-final.

It must be noted that Pakistan will be playing its sixth semi-final of the T20 World Cup, the most by any cricket team.
