England were undefeated throughout the tournament, also having recently beaten the No. 1 ODI team: South Africa. They were already touted to win and some of my English friends already took a day off from work for the final.
Even on the forum nobody gave Pakistan a sniff of a chance. All my Pakistani brothers on here were satisfied on reaching the semi's and were just expecting a fighting attitude from the cornered tigers not a meek surrender.
Pakistan lost heavily to India in their opening game, but sprung back against South Africa, but the win was not as convincing now looking at the fact that Pakistan barely scrapped by from Sri Lanka in similar events and even that could have been a loss if it wasn't for a single catch. But the latter two teams were defeated in the end.
This trashing of England by Pakistan has got to be the biggest upset I've seen apart from the 2003 cricket World Cup final. How high do you rank this upset?
