Can Pakistan judge what target they should aim for on a given pitch while batting first?

Absolutely atrocious batting display today and seemed like they were aiming too high which was obviously not possible on this pitch. A total of 250-260 would have been great here.

Is this something the think tank needs to concentrate on?
 
Yes, We have artificially adopted the mindset that 300 is necessary. As the OP mentioned, 250-260 would have been great.

Seems to be a traditional problem of Pakistan. They simply dont know what target is appropriate to set.
 
Champions trophy performance was a fluke. In general we should always bowl first. Our batsmen cannot consistently set targets. Better chance at winning if we know what we have to do when batsmen go out there.
