The two teams have defied the odds after difficult starts and are now set to meet in the big decider at the MCG. It's going to be a belter, so long as the weather can hold off just enough.

Neither England nor Pakistan topped their groups. It was New Zealand and India who took those honours but both the Men in Blue and the Black Caps fell to these to sides, respectively, at the semi-final stage.

New Zealand were limited by some incredibly tidy Pakistan bowling before openers Mohammed Rizwan and captain Azam Babar swiftly did the damage with their bats. For England, it was a total dismantling of the world ranked No. 1 T20 team, India. The Men in Blue picked up a respectable 168 runs off their 20 overs but didn't manage a single wicket as Alex Hales and Jos Buttler smashed their way past that total with an astonishing four overs to spare.

Pakistan will be an entirely different prospect for England with bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi looking very much revved up to speed after carrying an injury into this competition. His captain will be urging him to strike deep into the long-batting England order, while Buttler will throw everything at breaking Pakistan's openers. The stage is set for a classic.

How to watch T20 World Cup from outside your country

Below we've got you covered with your official broadcasting options for major cricket loving countries (and the US!), but if you're outside your country of residence - whether that's Australia, India, the UK or anywhere else - and try to start streaming the T20 World Cup via your local broadcaster, you'll soon discover that you can't, as it's location restricted. But there is a way to tune in regardless.

A good streaming VPN can let you get around these digital borders, while also offering robust protection from cybercriminals and government snooping. They're also very easy to use.

How to use a VPN

Using a VPN is as easy as one-two-three...

1. Download and install a VPN - as we say, our top choice is ExpressVPN

2. Connect to the appropriate server location - open the VPN app, hit 'choose location' and select the appropriate location, eg: 'AUS' for Kayo or 9Now.

3. Go to the broadcaster's stream - head to your home broadcaster's site or app and watch as if you were at home - so that might be Kayo Sports or 9Now for Australian citizens abroad.
