Our attack deserves a shot at SFs...
but our batting is beyond pathetic
hopefully King babar turns up today
Used pitch which is already sluggish, should favor Bangladesh.Definitely. Advantage Bangladesh here, chasing anything on this wicket will be difficult and Pakistan has already imploded against Zimbabwe.
Pakistan's batting has been better than bowling in this tournament.
They need a better opening bowler than hacks like Rauf
Not so worried about the toss. Don't think this Bangladesh lineup can score much against our bowlers.
Looking at the previous match, yes for sure. However, Babar and Rizwan are at their best while chasing so this makes it a weird situation for Pakistan fans.Used pitch which is already sluggish, should favor Bangladesh.
Was Babar going to bat first too?

Bangladesh have opted to bat in their and Pakistan's last Group 2 game
Our batsmen might crumble in pressure. I hope they don't repeat the Zimbabwe game.

BD winning the toss evens the game out a bit. Batting 2nd could be tricky on that pitch
I would've gotten in Asif Ali or Haider Ali in place of Shan Masood after how he was gotten out in the last game and how lost he looks on the crease.
That’s the issue, we have not been doing our basics right so far.dont forget pressure is on both teams its a QF hopefully BD will panic Pakistan just need to get basics right
Babar and Rizwan crumble when they don't know how fast to bat. If they have a set target, they should be fine.
All depends on how much Pakistani bowlers limit Bangladesh to.
we should try to bowl them out
Bangladesh with a NRR of -1.28 to have a chance to qualify for the semi-final.
Let that sink in people
Ned is 4th on the table and will remain so if BD is beaten, does it mean they automatically qualify for next WC?
That's what I am saying ,,, this is was an absolute horrible of a format for the WC.
Good teams like Australia and SA are already out in a sudden death type game, before the play offs even began.
And now you have two very weak teams fighting for the Semi? That's ridiculous.
Needed to have a QF for it be a fair format that had better chances to bring up the best teams.

Asif is a liability on bigger grounds. He simply cannot play the short ball.
Haider, the less said the better.
King Babar to bash BD trundlers to obscurity
Who has written the Pakistan anthem? Beautiful one
Yeah, its a big disadvantage to the team batting second.Shameful from ICC same pitch for a t20
South Africa might have been the strongest team in this group, but they got destroyed by Pakistan and now utterly outplayed by Netherlands.That's what I am saying ,,, this is was an absolute horrible of a format for the WC.

Asif should play ahead of Shan.
Babar has lost 4/5 tosses in the WC. So unfortunate.
