42nd Match - Ireland v Pakistan (15th March)

[smash84]

thank you ahmed ****ing shahzad, useless batsman, useless fiedler

 

[Sarun]

let's keep things realistic

Only Pak is likely to eliminated at earlier stage.

Though then again who knows how they will perform on a given day!

 

[Zinzan]

yessss keep dropping them pls

Guppy, Kane & Bmac would have snared that chance.

 

[smash84]

i had forgotten pakistan's useless fielding too

 

[smash84]

Agree, once the shine goes this could be a tough afternoon for them unless Afridi puts a spell of the Irish.

afridi has been worthless this tournament though. Can't expect any wickets from him

 

[smash84]

and crap, wahab seems off his radar today as well

that was a strange first ball

If there's one thing we've all learnt about Afridi, it's when you expect him to do well he won't and vice versa.

shot

and lolbad fielding

 

[_Ed_]

Sheesh. Porterfield's leading from the front, and in some style.

yes, he does. This is going to be a long match for pakistan. And elimination at the end

 

[Zinzan]

Gorgeous stroke

 

[Pratters]

Porterfield superb man.

well, nobody expected him to do well this wc and he hasn't lol

 

[Zinzan]

IDK just have a feeling he'll cause problems for the Irish today, I do hope you're right & I'm wrong.

 

[Flem274*]

afridi will love the irish mediums. i can just see ireland having pakistan in all sorts and then that jammy bugger smoking 70* to win the game.

 

[Sarun]

Probably with his batting (if he does indeed cause problems).

 

[_Ed_]

Fantastic from Sarfraz. Should have played in the whole tournament.

 

[Sarun]

Looks like WI's winning margin will ensure this matches now a winner take all.

 

[Flem274*]

can't believe the windies are in the knock outs.
