I won't even mind to see a bowl-out here.

Bowl-outs are dire. I may come to enjoy Twenty20, but not that abomination!

Game set and match to Pakistan, Australia shouldn't have lost this game.

 

[Sanz]

Exciting game this. Might come around on the whole Twenty20 concept!

Have you watched one yet ?

 

[Nate]

Bracken - dire.

 

[Chubb]

Great knock from Misbah-ul-Haq- I thought he was a young batsman but now i find out he's 33- where have Pakistan been keeping him?

 

[Fusion]

Have you watched one yet ?

Yeah a few. Didn't really interest me. The Pak/Ind game was the first one I followed start to finish and thought it was fun.

Fair play from Pakistan, outplayed Australia with both the bat and the ball. Thoroughly deserved the win and if they play like this and sort out their opening issues, they may well have a big chance to take the whole thing.

Huge match between Australia and Sri Lanka on Thursday.

Echoed.

Great win by Pak. I really didn't think they had a chance today. Excellent innings by Haq, well played!

18.3 Bracken to Misbah-ul-Haq, SIX, Bracken bowls a slower ball on off stump, Misbah gets under it and smashes it high over the long-on boundary, that's a massive hit, it's measured at 111 meters, the biggest of the tournament

Heh 111 metres, that's insane.

You have to wonder why this guy was as Chubb says.

I think Australia has got some serious problems batting first in this format of the game, they just don't seem to able to set up target.

Assuming SL beat Bangladesh tonight (dangerous!), does this mean that SL vs. Aus will be a straight fight for a quarter final place?

I'd love it if we knocked the Aussies out!

Yeah, must do. Should be quite a game.

 

[SJS]

Fabulous batting by Misbah and malik.

Fantastic win !!

Congratulations Pakistan

 

[pup11]

Really poor captaincy from Gilly, he had no clue what was going on out there.

 

[pup11]

Australia vs Sri Lanka is going to be a virtual quarter-final now, i just hope Ponting is fit for that game.
Without him this Australian team just doesn't look the same.

 

[SJS]

It was fantastic to see a couple of Indian tri colours goingaround alongwith half a dozen Pakistan flags as Misbah was hitting his boundaries.

Something for some of the hot-heads here to learn from ?

He dit get chances 6 or 7 years ago but always failed.

Heartiest Congratulations to Malik and company on beating the aussies,I really had no hope they would do it tonight .
