If someone was going to turn a game like that, it was probably him. His three maximums off Saeed Ajmal were matched by Matthew Wade in Dubai, who went one better by getting three in a row off Shaheen Shah Afridi to seal a stunning chase of 177.<\/p>\n<p>Wade was a more unlikely hero than Hussey. Not that he is not a capable batter, but he had only ever topped 30 on one occasion in a chase in T20Is, and that came when opening. He did not have anywhere near the pedigree of Hussey when it came to finishing.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, it was his batting partner Marcus Stoinis who seemed the more likely match-winner, and for Wade, the all-rounder was the man who turned the game when he took 13 off Haris Rauf in the 17th over including a six and a four.<\/p>\n<p>That brought the required rate down to just over 12 an over from the last three, the sort of numbers that have become easily attainable, particularly with the rapport between the batters that Wade and Stoinis possess.<\/p>\n<p>They did just that, Stoinis finishing unbeaten on 40 and Wade a blistering 41 from just 17 deliveries.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about how the pair have become such good finishers, Wade explained: \u201cIt\u2019s confidence, confidence in your ability to finish the game. To be able to bat with Marcus has been awesome, I\u2019ve played a lot of cricket with him at Victoria early on in his career so I\u2019ve seen him grow into the cricketer he is today.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know if I can hang with him for four or five overs, he\u2019s going to find the boundary, he\u2019s too big and strong not to. The reason that he and I worked well towards the back end is that we know each other\u2019s game so much.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrying to keep calm is probably the biggest thing towards the back end. That\u2019s quite easy for me because I look down the other end and I see his big rig ready to send it out of the park. It might not be as easy for him at the other end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Where Hussey produced a virtuoso solo performance to stun Pakistan over a decade ago, this time it was a joint effort from the next generation of Australian finishers.<\/p>\n<p>The hope for Australia now is that history does not repeat itself once more. In 2010, Hussey&#8217;s heroics did not lead to a title as England won the final. With Wade and Stoinis, perhaps this is the year that Australia end their wait for an ICC Men&#8217;s T20 World Cup crown.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dubai: For the second day running, a seemingly doomed chase proved anything but as Australia matched New Zealand in getting home with an over to spare thanks to some spectacular late hitting against Pakistan.
