My Personal view(Or Expectation)

Pak vs Aus- Pak will lose
Pak vs WI - Pak will win
Pak vs Afg- Pak will win
Pak vs Ban- Pak will win
Pak vs Sl - Pak will win
Pak vs Sa- Pak will win (Always beaten by pak in Icc tournaments)
Pak vs Ind- Pak will win ( This time no mauka)
Pak vs Nz- Pak will win ( Not a good team outside home)
Pak vs Eng-Pak will lose ( Tournament favourites)
 
Pak vs Aus : Australia
Pak vs Wi : Pakistan
Pak vs Afg : Pakistan
pak vs ban : Pakistan
Pak vs SL : Pakistan
Pak vs S.A : South Africa
Pak vs India : India
Pak vs Nzl : close match (Pakistan)
Pak vs Eng : England
 
Pak vs Aus- Aus will win
Pak vs WI - Pak will win
Pak vs Afg- Pak will win
Pak vs Ban- Pak will win
Pak vs Sl - Pak will win
Pak vs Sa- Pak will win
Pak vs Ind- Pak will win
Pak vs Nz- NZ will win
Pak vs Eng-Pak will win
 
Pakistan will lose at lease one game from Afg,Ban,Wi. We always slip once on a banana peel.Out of the four big guns (Aus,Sa,Ind,End) we will win only one. The two games vs NZ and SL will decide our semi final spot. If we win both those games we will make the semis a defeat in either of those games it will be curtains.

If we can win 2 out of 4 games vs the big teams we will comfortably march to the semis.
 
in any case the formats is really great and all games fall in the can't miss group even Afghan game will be fun due to the history.

I agree except one. Pak vs Eng:- again Pak will win.
 
PAK v AUS: Australia
PAK v WI: Pakistan
PAK v AFG: Pakistan
PAK v BAN: Pakistan
PAK v SL: Pakistan
PAK v SA: Pakistan
PAK v IND: India
PAK v NZL: Pakistan
PAK v ENG: England

Semis:

PAK v IND: Pakistan

Final:
ENG v PAK: Pakistan
 
Dont see Pak losing against aus. Aus will be weak in absense of Smith and Warner. I expect Pak to win more matches and this time there wont be any upset as we have become pretty consistent under Sarfaraz

WHY IS EVERYONE OVERRATING AUSTRALIA?

to be fair Pakistan would be very poor if they lost to AUstralia that does not have Warner,Smith and even with both of them their WL ratio in ODIs is very poor recently.
 
Aus to win
Pak to win
Afg to win
Pak to win
Pak to win
Sa will win
Ind will win
Pak will win
Pak will win
 
The only 2 teams Pak might gonna lose are Aus and NZ.
NZ because of the brilliant Kane Williamson and his intelligent captaincy and Aus because we have a mental block against them. Would certainly not want us to play Aussies in the knockouts. Even in CT i remember i said only Aussies will trouble us once we are in the knockouts, luckily they were not :p

Completely respect ur opnion bro why do u say it wirh so much assurity when u also said we will beat NZ 4-1 or 5-0
 
Ind Vs Pak: If Kohli captains India, Pakistan will win. Hopefully Rohit/Dhoni take over for that game.
 
To be candid, with Pakistan you just can't say anything. They look like a million dollar on one day and a minnow on the other.

Pakistan is a team that can destroy Ind, Eng, SA and all other favorites one by one like they did at the Champions Trophy. Pakistan is also the team that can badly lose against Bangladesh and West Indies.

Still remember that match against NZ....16/6 in 15 overs - that's sub-minnow level....straight after winnings game after game on the trot.....and then 1/4 and 25/5 against West Indies in 2015 WC....The series win against SA on the other hand too came from nowhere
 
Just my wish bro :)
And thori bohat prediction bhi. Of course I can be wrong. :)

Aur har NZ series was a blessing in disguise and will help us in getting rid of Malik and Hafeez. I also said that we will win 4-1 or 5-0 if Haris plays all the matches. An exceptional player of fast bowling like Haris was sidelined for 3 matches and only included when the series was gone. Motivation he nai rhti wo.

Pak vs WI - WIN
Pak vs Afg- WIN
Pak vs Ban- WIN
Pak vs Sl - WIN
Pak vs Sa- WIN
Pak vs Ind- LOSE
Pak vs Nz- LOSE
Pak vs Eng- LOSE

should get them through to semis with enough humility to conjure up some cornered tigers 3.0 rally hopefully.
 
Pak vs aus-pak
Pak vs ind-ind
Pak vs nz-nz
Pak vs eng-eng
Pak vs wi-pak
Pak vs south africa - pak
Pak vs ban-pak
Pak vs afg-pak
Pak vs sl-pak
 
I don't know how people are predicting that we will lose to Australia? Have you guys seen their side? Sure Australia of old would have smashed everyone and their aunt in world cups, but the Aussie side of today reminds me of Misbah's Pakistan - utterly boring with a whole bunch of mediocre players.


My prediction Pakistan will drop the games against NZ, Ind and possibly Eng. The SA match could go either way. The rest we will smash.
 
Babar Azam to score 3 tons in the WC against Australia, India and West Indies.

Pakistan to break the streak.

Exactly people predicting us losing tp Australia andnwinning against NZ is rubbish

NZ are a much better ODI unit than Aus at the moment
 
Here's what i think of Pakistan's chances against other team ATM.
Pak (45%) vs (55%) Aus
Pak (40%) vs (60%) Ind
Pak (50%) vs (50%) NZ
Pak (35%) vs (65%) Eng
Pak (70%) vs (30%) WI
Pak (65%) vs (35%) BD
Pak (50%) vs (50%) SA
Pak (80%) vs (20%) Afg
Pak (75%) vs (25%) SL

Then this predictions are misleading. PAK is the slowest starter hence it's not good for the team to play win expecting games in first half.

We will be playing 5 ODIs against England in England just before world cup. These matches will not only help us to adjust to conditions but will also make sure that any surviving TTFs and passengers will either take flight home or sit on the bench in WC games.
 
I know there is an element of fun here because if anything, the only aspect of the Pakistan team that is predictable, is the unpredictability of the team!

Pakistan is the only team in the world - and HISTORY - of Cricket that can make the opposition team jokers look like Kings, and Kings look like jokers!

Pakistan are the dark horses of every tournament, never rule them out, but never bank on them either!
 
going to try to predict the exact results lols im probably going to get it wrong but why not lol


PAK v AUS: Pakistan win by 15 runs ( Zaman 65 runs- Amir 3 wickets )
PAK v WI: Pakistan win by 7 wickets (Shadab 54 runs- Hasan Ali 5 wickets)
PAK v AFG: Pakistan win by 5 wickets ( Zaman 101 runs- Shadab 4 wickets )
PAK v BAN: Pakistan win by 67 runs (Malik 120 runs- Amir 5 wickets)
PAK v SL: Tied Pakistan 288-9 Sri Lanka 288-9 ( Azam 87 runs- Malik 3 wickets)
PAK v SA: South Africa win by 45 runs ( H.Talat 45 runs- Faheem Ashraf 2 wickets)
PAK v IND: Pakistan win by 26 runs (Azam 123 runs- Amir 6 wickets)
PAK v NZL: Pakistan win by 1 wicket ( Faheem Ashraf 68 runs- Shadab 5 wickets)
PAK v ENG: England win by DL 17 runs ( Zaman 34 runs- Hasan Ali 3 wickets )

final Pakistan vs New Zealand Pakistan wins by 47 runs
Zaman 140 runs- Hasan Ali 5 wickets
 
It will be a big upset if Pakistan makes the WC Semi-final. If they do, then anything can happen from then onwards.

PAK have made 6 SF's and won 2.

But the trend in recent years is once PAK gets through the knockout stages, they are unstoppable.

In my opinion Aussies may win only if Smith and Warner are back, otherwise there is a giant hole in their upper order, that Khawaja can't fill.

Plus they have lost their aggression, current Pakistani lot is very aggressive and confident.

Just a year ago, Pak was in danger of not qualifying for the Champions trophy. This WC format requires teams to put up consistent performances to qualify for the semis - A couple of freak wins aren't going to get Pak to the knock-outs. To be fair, South Africa and Australia are starting to look weaker than they were a few months ago, so Pak has decent hopes. England and India are pretty much locks for 2 SF slots. I would go with SA and NZ/SL/Pak/Aus/ for the 4th slot.
 
PAK v AUS: Australia
PAK v WI: Pakistan
PAK v AFG: Pakistan
PAK v BAN: Pakistan
PAK v SL: Pakistan
PAK v SA: Pakistan

PAK v NZL: New Zealand

I think the England tour and Asia cup would tell the real strength of this lineup.

The team that played CL, was very different than the team that struggled with WC qualification. England was in a similar situation a few years ago, and they changed their game within a few months time.

And it is the other way around, you can get away with slacking for a few games in the world cup, because associates also play and you have more games. You cannot make any errors in Champions league, where practically every game is a knockout game.

Look at it this way, Pakistan only lost one game, to get to the top. India was second, who lost only two games in the whole tournament.

But still early, i will reserve my judgement till the upcoming tour against England and see what this lot will do, because most likely it will be the same team for the world cup next year.
 
You are right, i think having new kids on the block, that are not super stars yet, and hungry, meant there were no groups and the coach could make a team out of them.

But we all know that changes quickly in our culture as there star rises, so fingers crossed
 
Pakistan vs Australia - Pakistan, if this ball tampering thing with Smith and Warner didn't happen would probably go for Aus

Pakistan vs England - England

Pakistan vs India - India unfortunately

Pakistan vs Afghanistan - Pakistan

Pakistan vs WI - Pakistan

Pakistan vs NZ - Pakistan, NZ may bottle it in this format

Pakistan vs Bangladesh - Pakistan

Pakistan vs Sri Lanka - Pakistan

Pakistan vs SA - Pakistan as we have a good record against them
 
WI
England
SL
Australia
India
SA
NZ
Afghanistan
Bangladesh

Ideally we need to win 3 of the first 4 games, and 3 of the last 5 games to get through. Will be a tough ask but we are capable of it.
 
Pakistan can win against the likes of England, India, New Zealand , South africa etc and can lose against the likes of Windies, Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka.
So pretty difficult to premeditate. :ashwin
 
Things are looking bleak.

I think we will win vs Afg,SL and Bangladesh. WI and NZ will be tight matches.

England, India are far superior and it is very unlikely we will even push them.

At the moment we can't make the Semis. Too many weaknesses.
 
Pak vs Aus- Pak will lose
Pak vs WI - Pak will lose
Pak vs Afg- Pak will win
Pak vs Ban- Pak will lose
Pak vs Sl - Pak will win
Pak vs Sa- Pak will lose
Pak vs Ind- Pak will lose
Pak vs Nz- Pak will lose
Pak vs Eng-Pak will lose

With the current team if we win 2 matches we should be happy. Our current team has neither have bowling or batting strength.
 
Its always difficult to predict about this team, they can beat the strongest team on their day & could lose to minnows on next day. Still I think Pakistan has a decent chance to make into Semi's. Results could look like this:

- vs. WST: probable win (60-40%)
- vs. ENG: definite loss
- vs. SL: probable win (70-30%)
- vs. AUS: probable loss (35-65%)
- vs. IND: definite loss
- vs. SA: probable loss (25-75%)
- vs. AFG: definite win
- vs. BAN: probable win (70-30%)

With 1 definite win & 3 probable wins, Pakistan will have to convert one probable loss (either SA or AUS) to make a viable claim for SemiFinal spot.

They will lose to everyone apart from Bangladesh, Afghanistan , New Zealand and one of Lanka/WI. They will not reach the final this time am afraid, this isn't the golden generation of 1999
 
Lots of wrist slitting. From 2003 World Cup to now, this is the second best we are performing (outside 2011) in terms of competitiveness and in the right conditions before World Cup.
We will be ok.

Bangladesh has beaten WI in a series both Home and Away this year and while WI barely qualified for the world cup through the qualifiers Bangladesh has auto qualified for this world cup and the last Champions Trophy making the semis . After what happened in the Asia Cup I don't see how can people predict a certain win Vs Bangladesh but a tight match Vs WI

Some clearly don’t watch cricket lol
 
Pakistan is playing on their home turf ...so it is their WC to lose
 
Pak vs Aus : Pakistan
Pak vs Wi : Pakistan
Pak vs Afg : Pakistan
pak vs ban : Pakistan
Pak vs SL : Pakistan
Pak vs S.A : South Africa
Pak vs India : India
Pak vs Nzl : NZ
Pak vs Eng : England



The schedule is actually really good for Pakistan - 1st 5 games are very winnable and then they only need to win 2 out of the last 4 to have a semi-final shot.

I may have to bump up Pak from 6 to 5 or even 4, primarily based on his extremely helpful schedule.

Pakistan will beat 1 of top 4 teams ( Eng, Ind, Aus, NZ) and beat 3 of the bottom 4. It’s match with SA will be 50-50. So it’s match with SA in WC will decide whether Pakistan will reach in semis or not! Assuming that hurdle is crossed, it’s individual brilliance of Pak vs System robustness of India/Eng in semis and final.

WI isn't a pushover. BD isn't either. There 2 teams are gonna surprise a lot of teams. However I back WI to win against BD in the WC because of the firepower they have.

I think Yasir shah has to play against Aus for Pak to win. Aus's batting has them more vulnerable in an ODI WC than they have been in ages. But Pakistan need to bat well, and attack with spin, to complement Shaheen, Hassan and Amir. And Imad's darts aren't going to be enough.

Shadab is a great prospect, but T20 mindset has plateaued his development as a bowler. He needs to start using flight and drift a lot more, instead of darting them in a la Rashid Khan or Afridi. If he knew how to do that, Pakistan would have won the 2nd ODI easily.

Its a horses for courses thing - IF Pak has to beat Aus, 2 things have to happen - 1. They have to obviously bat decent enough to put or chase a par score. 2. They have to restrict the Aus batting - and the best line of attack for that is spin. What Imad bowls isn't "spin".

Shadab bowled really well in the 2nd ODI. It's just that somebody else's mom was praying hard. A wicket early then would gave changed the game. Pak needs someone who can take wickets at the top with Shaheen. Otherwise bowling looks good.

Shadab blew it in the 2nd ODI. The same Phelukwayo was made to look stupid repeatedly by Chahal and Kuldeep. Repeatedly.

To be fair, Phelukwayo's worked on his gameplan against spin. He's using his reach and started reverse-sweeping anything on offsump or wider that he can reach the pitch of - he wasn't doing that against India.

But a smarter legspinner would have flighted the ball and gotten him to step out - he would have either been stumped or skied one up. Shadab got to bowl 4-5 overs to a guy who had zero clue which way the ball was turning, and still failed to finish him off.

Hopefully he will learn, he has shown nice improvement in his batting, so seems like a player who has the capacity to get better.

Too much optimism is not good. Ground realities matter. How can you say Pak wins agianst Ind and NZ? We got thrashed by India in Asia Cup without Kohli and NZ whitewashed us 5-0.
