Rajiv Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Yup, they are really focussed on this format and really know how to play it well After beating two of the top teams I don't see them going backwards Link to comment
Chaos Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 :cantstop:, rajeev they are biggest chokers in the world cup. I cant see them beating aussies again. Link to comment
kumble_rocks Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Australia got beat by Zimboks ! Obviously , they are not in top form. If we qualify for the next round , I guarantee you that Pakistan will lose to us. They will wilt again under the pressure of 5-0. Link to comment
apocalypse Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 The way NZ is defending its total I doubt that Link to comment
Rajiv Posted September 18, 2007 Author Share Posted September 18, 2007 First of all, I don't see India going towards the semis at all. 2ndly, there is no guarantee in cricket, minnows were one of them but u saw what zimboks did Most teams played the aussie reputation, pak played the team and pretty darn good I mentioned even b4 the compi that they were front runners, pak has a culture of 20/20 as well and they genuinely enjoy this format Look at us, we are just playing 20/20 WC coz its out there Biggest losers are the english team, they were deemed to be one of the best in this format Link to comment

Prudent Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 I also have that fear Link to comment
jf1gp_1 Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 ..if bangla beat Lanka and Pakistan BD can never beat both the teams. By fluke they might win one game but both not possible. they arent that good. Link to comment
fineleg Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 This is 20-20, whoever wakes up on the right side of the bed will win. Link to comment
Guest dada_rocks Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 I kind of agree with OP.. these guys seem to be 20/20 veteran Link to comment
coffee_rules Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 They have a 20-20 domestic championship for about 2 years now. Remember Shoaib Malik in some match fixing controversy, when he admitted to deliberately lose a match as a mark of protest. They seem to know how to win the matches, if there are no bowl-outs.

Lurker Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Quite possibly they will. Hard to write them off after they beat two top teams of LOI format. Link to comment
King Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Wow... Pakistan beat Australia :whatchutalkingabout Pakistan's won 2 games in a row against 2 top teams in the world right now. Although this is Twenty20 when was the last time Pakistan was taken this seriously? I think Pakistan or NZ may end up wining the Twenty20 WC. Both look very menacing. Link to comment
Gambit Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Yawn. All I know is that in proper cricket world cups, they haven't beaten a non minnow since their group match victory over Australia in the '99 world cup. Link to comment
Dravid Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 no they wont... will choke in semi's and will get knocked out and create some more controversy :P Link to comment
King Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 no they wont... will choke in semi's and will get knocked out and create some more controversy :P Either way they will create contoversies. Now Misbah will have started his little faction already in the team and will be hoping to become a captain in the next series. :D Link to comment
Dravid Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Either way they will create contoversies.

sandtest Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 20-20 will suck a new low if this happens. Link to comment
