zen Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 Exclusive report from St Lucia Pak vs Aus Hailed as the world's best T20 team by Pakistani fans, the Pakistani team has a lot to live up to its reputation. The team made its 3rd successive T20 WC semi-final entry showing its prowess in the format. But this time the road to the final wouldn't be that easy as the team takes on Australia, which has beaten Pakistan in some 11 or 12 consecutive games. Pakistani coach Waqar Younis couldn't confirm the exact number of consecutive losses against Australia. Asked about the team's preparation for the big game, Younis said "the bayz are prepayring hard fur the game and I am wary can-fidant in my bayz ability". Younis pointed to captain Afridi and said he would fill in the rest. Afridi was just coming out of a practice session. He took a red round thing out of his pocket and bit it but before I got suspicious he straight away explained that he was having an apple. I asked him about the his and team's preparation. Afridi said, "I have shed out more sweat than my Abu's tears." I quickly remarked that would signal danger to the opposition. Afridi in his confident way nodded and said "I am can-fidant in my Bayz aabilitee to upset any team on their day". I asked "Isn't Pak the top seeded team in this world cup, so it would be Aus that would be causing the upset if it won?". Afridi impressed by my presence of mind gave me a flying kiss and said "Carrect" Soon Kamran Akmal joined us. He had just finished his catching session. Afridi asked him how did it go and Akmal smiled and said "Cat 100%". Afridi seemed pretty impressed and said to him, "you cat 100% here, so cat 100% in the match too" Kamran gave him a thumbs up! I went up to the bowling power house to see how they were preparing. Sami, Aamer, Asif and Razzaq were firing in balls towards a lone stump. I asked Aamer that would he like to bowl the 5 wkts over to Aus again to which he said, "if the kaptaan makes me field near a bunch of girls then I would be maatiwayted". Asif looked happy in the sun. I asked him why hasn't he fired in the tourney so far. Asif said " I had trable with my ex so mantally was nat on the field". I wished him well for the game. I walked back to Afridi, who seemed to be in a serious discussion with the coach. He invited me to join them. Afridi said 'now is the time for real prepayration" I said 'discussing strategy and tactic?". Younis clarified "We are prepayring our repart" I asked "what report?". Afridi said, "We are prepayring the repart to give to the inkairi cammission" Dil Dil Pakistan, their hearts were pawning! Rett

imran666 Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 no offence to anyone but i swear in name of god that was the lamest of all lamest post ..no masala no twists ...one word FAIL
Zap_Brannigan Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 Pakistan is in semifinal bcoz of other teams mediocrity - Ian Chappel How true! If you look at it logically, both India and Pakistan have the same win/loss ratio. Moreover, both teams have beaten the same good team and have lost against all the other good teams. But one is in the Semi-final and other is not. Its just that Pak were extremely lucky that everything fell into their lap. India too, had to win just 1 game in the 2nd round to reach semifinal, which they failed to do.
Pak_Fan_4_Eva Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 ^ Seems i need something to cram this sentence into all of your minds "We FOUGHT, unlike you". :eyedance:

zen Posted May 14, 2010 Author Posted May 14, 2010 Brilliant performance by Australia. White and Hussey got them home in style. I wasn't sure whom to support for the final but with a performance like this one, I am going to support them! I was in a meeting when the game was going on but I had my laptop open with cricinfo. And following Hussey's performance was just great. If I recall correctly, they needed 18 runs of the last over. And I was like if a spinner bowls, Australia will win this (3 6s). Then I saw Ajmal's name, and then I didn't even bother to look at the card again (till now) knowing that Australia would go through! For Pak, they got pawned again for the upteenth time (it's not even a joke anymore). I don't see too many teams losing this one (yes against Aus too) after scoring 190 odd but it was Pak. The saying is Pak can win on its day but those days are getting fewer and fewer. Now it's more like Pak can make you win. An entry to the final, would have given its fans a lot to cheer about esp knowing cricket is one of things that cheers up the God forsaken country.
