Australia, who were not even given a seeding at the outset of this T20 World Cup tournament are now, not only favourites to defeat defending champions, Pakistan in this semi final, but they are also favourites to win the Cup itself. VC Bet Bookmakers in fact make the Aussies 2/5 odds on to win the semi-final and 11/10 to win the tournament.
All that said, Australian skipper, Michael Clarke will be acutely aware that Pakistan, are in exactly the same position this year as they were when winning the tournament last year, meaning that his side will have to be at their belligerent best to beat them in this match.

Australia, like England, went through their Super 8 Group unbeaten, looking imperious in the process. In Shane Watson and David Warner, they have potentially the best opening pair in T20 World cricket and if these two can get them off to yet another big start then Pakistan will struggle to match them. Both Watson and Warner are quoted at 11/4 by VC Bet to be the top Australian Batsman in the match.
However, Pakistani captain, Shahid Afridi, is a wily player and has the bowlers at his service who can make life very awkward for the big hitting pair. Indeed, Saeed Ajmal would be an excellent bet at around 3/1 to be top Pakistan bowler in the match.
2010 Twenty20 World Cup Odds Comparison.
Australia have once again shown that their fielding is probably the best in the world and while there are some question marks over the depth of their batting, their all round ability, we think, will be the main difference between the two teams. This is why we think that they will get through this match and would take the odds of around 6/4 for them to meet England in the final.
We also think that Afridi is a difficult man to keep out of a game like this which should mean that punters could rely on him to finish as top batsman for his side with odds of 5/1 provided by Victor Chandler
