Pakistan were knocked out of the World Twenty20 as Australia kept their hopes of reaching the semi-finals alive with victory in Chandigarh.

After Steve Smith inspired Australia to 193-4, Shahid Afridi's side had to pull off their highest chase in a T20.

Khalid Latif led the charge with 46 but James Faulkner took four of his five wickets from six late balls as Pakistan finished on 172-8.

The Aussies must now beat India on Sunday to reach the knockout stage.
