Guest Hiten. Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 What a amazing play by Afridi. He not only bowled good (which he is getting better at) but for the first time I have seen him play sensibly. One more roar from his side and Pak will the be reigning champions. Slow starters or not this team has picked up momentum at the very right time and Afridi is fulfilling the expectations that Pakistan demands from his side. Pakistan have made it to the finals consecutively and it says something about their side. RSA are chokers and there is no denying. For all the talk about they are shedding the chokers tag is bullocks and they need to start performing in a crunch games where their skills and pressure handling is tested. They are a complete fail side when it comes to semis Link to comment
veer Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Umar Gul was the match winner.. he choked them big.. cant believe kallis or dumminy didnt come out of crease to disrupt his yorkers... good game.. chalo finally some good days they gonna see.. congrates!!.. Link to comment
Guest Hiten. Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 It was Shahid Afridi vs SA and SA choked. Well done Pakistan. SL vs Pak is very much on the cards for the finals. Link to comment
Shehezaada Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 great win PAK! But I'll be cheering for the lankans or West Indies in the final. Link to comment
Shane Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Amazing performance by Pakistan.. Even I didnt rate them that much before the tournament but Boy they proved me wrong... Amazing bowling by Umar Gul and new kiddo M. Aamir.... Yorkers after Yorkers around 145km/hr... Amazing spell of pace bowling... combine that with the efforts of Ajmal and Afridi... It seems like they are here to win ..Will bring great joy to their country in the bad times....Best of luck Pakistan!! Hope you guys win the tournament !! Shoaib Akhtar was Brilliant. :nice: Link to comment
Guest Hiten. Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Lankans will have an upper hand against Pakistan but it won't be a prudent move to write off Pakistan based on their previous performances against the Lankan side. I am 80% certain SL will make the finals but the other 20% depends on Gayle fares for Windies. A quick start is a must for Windies as M & M will dry the runs during the middle spell. Link to comment
Guest gaurav_indian Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 The post sounds Pakistan written all over it :haha: Give credit where its due.They played brilliantly in the last couple of matches. Link to comment
Pak_Forever Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Thanks guys! Afridi once again going to be the Man of the Tournament! Had this guy used his head most of his career, then he would have been one of the best cricketers! Hope now he keeps it up! Looking forward to Pak vs W.I. final! Link to comment
Ram Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Saffies are capable of choking EVEN on air. :mad: Link to comment
The Outsider Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 It's going to take something special from SL or WI to stop Pakistan now. Murali and Mendis have not really troubled the Pakistan middle order all that much to be called trump cards in their head to head encounter. It would come down to Jayasuriya or Dilshan playing a special knock to win against Pakistan. For my money, Pakistan are favorites now and truth be told I would grudgingly tip my hat off if they pull it off given the events of the past year in the country. Link to comment
Nash Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Final chokers of last time.. REM SL should come and remind them last Final there is always a L after W... :eyedance: Pak gonna get his L Link to comment
10020348 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Thanks...Boys...:p Inshallah...that was Afridi's reply for final...and I hope that we play some gud cricket in final.... Link to comment
ali0786 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 It was more of a good performance by Pakistan than a choke by RSA..but oh well we're in the final! Hopefully we can pull it off this time around. Link to comment
10020348 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 whether they loose or win ...doesnt matter in final...cuz I wasnt expecting them to win today.....So whtaever happens in final we R with You Pakistan Zindabad Link to comment

Jabu Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Gul bowled well…... every :bowwow: has a day. Link to comment
veer Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 the only way to counter pakistan is .. gather as many runs in 1st six overs as you can.. ajmal, afridi, gul.. wont give that much.. DILSHAN is the only one in those other two who can counter these three bowlers.. ... the guy is a BRILLIANT improviser.. and one of the most under-rated.. Link to comment
Mamu Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Excellent team chemistry ! No question ! Couple of games and they have changed completely. Finally Afretard comes good -- i think it is his bowling tho ! much more than his batting that won the game and they are certainly going to win it all ! Link to comment
