You want to go out gracefully or wish a Pak win over Aus

[Asim]

Youdont want to support PAK na? OK... Dont pray for victory of Pakistan, but you can pray purely for defeat of AUS without even mentioning PAK ;) so logically you will suport your team cause as well as mantain your self-respect. I understand your situation, as our team too been 10s of time in this situation, dont know why they are through into Semis so easily this time ;)

The way I see it, its a matter of pride. I can't fathom how a team that excelled in ODI cricket for last 1 ~ 2 years is reduced to a situation where its progress is dependent upon other results going their way, that too coming from a team we regularly mock with utter disdain. Pak have ther own reasons for beating Australia. We will do whatever is in our power to stay afloat. If at the end of the day, that translates to a passage to the semi -finals, I will take it.

When a fate of a team rests in some other teams performance rather than their own, it shows how dismal they have been in the tournament. I sincerely hope Aussies beat Pakistan and we are shown the door rightly, so that we accept we were pathetic in this tournament and go back on rectifying our mistakes.

If at the end of the day' date=' that translates to a passage to the semi -finals, I will take it.[/quote'] thank god for that.

[Params7]

Australia is pretty much guaranteed to win now. They'll be going with their best, Pak will be resting some players for semis, where they will lose. So lets just focus on IPL and vs Australia - our pathetic bowling that needs to go through some rapid changes.

[Cricketics]

If Pakistan beat Australia by 40-50 runs (quite possible at Centurion where chasing teams have lost heavily)' date=' India will need to beat WI only by 50-60 runs - again quite possible.[/quote'] I would love to see that happen but with the kind of luck we are having and the weather for India-Windies game also not being good, I believe we won't make it. Pakistan can defeat Australia for sure.. But they won't in this tournament.

[Captain of Bhangra]

Nope, sorry, we only have ourselves to blame for our own predicament. I won't be changing the habit of a lifetime. I will accept we're out, and hope that New Zealand (the only one of the 4 remaining teams that I don't despise), somehow win the tournament...

[riya]

What is there to think.Pack up please! As for the CT I just forgot the whole tournament.I am not worried about the Pak-Aus result too. As for the Pakistanis, no thanks.

[punjabi_khota]

Cheer for Pak and face them in the finals. Then hand them a soul crushing defeat. But looking at how Pak shits their pyjamas facing OZ (haven't won a test match against them since Hamo was born), it seems unlikely. :yay:

[Sooda]

No, i dont care if we dont get through, I want Aus to RIP pakistan to shreds, then again whoever meets em in the Semi- DITTO P.S -Cob!!!!!!! Good to see you here man

[punjabi_khota]

I want us to have the best shot at the trophy. So I do hope Pakis beat OZ by a big margin, and then we get to meet them in finals. Inshallah :P Why would any indian fan want us to be kicked out just to see Pakis lose is beyond me. And too in somewhat inconsequential game for pak.

[yoda]

I bet Pak will intentionally lose to the aussies (not that they have to try hard).

Doesn't make any sense - why would they want to face Anderson, Broad, and Onions at the Wanderers over NZ/SL at the Centurion in the semi finals?

[AI786]

haha this is great, india now have been shamed and left to rely on pakistan, the one's they cuss out all the time, now the fans pride is at stake, the team they hate so despretely they hafto to support to beat australia lol.

[yoda]

[yoda]

haha this is great' date=' india now have been shamed and left to rely on pakistan, the one's they cuss out all the time, now the fans pride is at stake, the team they hate so despretely they hafto to support to beat australia lol.[/quote'] you do realize that we don't have to support anyone for the results to happen one way or the other, right? :finger:

[yoda]

I want Australia to Loose. :D

+1 :--D

[jusarrived]

I want India to qualify , cos unlike some people here ..i think we have a good side ..most teams have bowling issues ..& there is no other team which is capable of chasing 300 consistently..we flattered once dose mean we deserve to bow out . but I cant see Pak beating the ozs , even if some how they do withour luk our match against WI might get rained off

[goose]

How exactly do you plan to lose a game of cricket? Are folk suggesting Pakistan will throw the game? You think Younis Khan will be advocating that in his team talk? If anything Pak will have licence to play with freedom. From a betting viewpoint, putting money on India winning this CT is a great punt i reckon.

[davidcooper]

i want pakistan to thrash australia- but it wont happen
