Bradman99 Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 ^ It sets it up well too. Australia-England or India-Pakistan would be epic finals
Karan114 Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Got the feeling.. I reckon Australia will beat West Indies.. And if India bat first I think you will post a big total and Sri Lanka will struggle to chase it down. Only need to win by 20 runs' date=' right ?[/quote'] Why do you think Lanka will struggle to chase down any total against our attack? And 20 runs is not a small margin in T20s anyways. We are losing this for sure. Agree about you guys beating the WI though - so it will be Aus and Lanka going through.

Lord Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 ^ It sets it up well too. Australia-England or India-Pakistan would be epic finals or Australia- India?:two_thumbs_up:
Lord Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Well India are due a good performance aren't they ? 20 runs is not that much. it is actually with our bowling attack.
King Tendulkar Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Why the criticism of the thread? He made a bold prediction and it came true.:cantstop:
Karan114 Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Well India are due a good performance aren't they ? 20 runs is not that much. Saying we are due a good performance would be like saying Australia (or England for that matter) are due a bad one. :winky: It doesn't work like that, we have out of form (and on certain pitches technically deficient) batsmen and a bowling attack that is not good enough, in form or otherwise. Anyway, a few overs of Jayawardene smashing our bowlers to all parts and even any slight optimism will be obliterated.
SSJ4Kakashi Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Yuvi will hit six sixes tonight!!!:yay::yay: Well...maybe not six in a row but he will perform today!

Likewise Australia have enough quality to keep their performances going.

achilles Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Outsider... This is the exact title I thought of to start the thread with, when I logged in 2 mins back. Congrats Pakistan. You guys atleast have the nerve to perform and fight your way to the semis while we indulge in sycophancy and after 9 mnths of training, still can't master the short ball. People might make fun of you people, but today is the day when you can maybe laugh your hearts out at us. And we deserve it. May you get to the Final and win it. For cricket. For the people of Pakistan.

Oh please, they didn't perform, they got lucky with so many results going in their favor. As for their win over the one decent team thats worth of any attention, more like SA ***ed up. I would have backed them to *** up if they played that same game but the opposition was someone else.

riya Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Yep Pak played much better cricket than India,they chased the target in a better way to keep their runrate in check.Their bowlers were disciplined.We played like we just wanted to finish this damn thing off.
cricket786 Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Nice thread. :) hope we do well against Aus now, though it's going to be real tough.
Pak_Forever Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Awesome Pakistan. It's '09 all over again. We will beat the unbeaten and strongest team so far in this tournament just like we did against SA in '09 and then WC glory it is. :yay::two_thumbs_up::yay:
