LOL!!!

I can't believe it!

When Misbah went, I thought "Here we go again"

Kudos to Afridi and Tanvir... I'm off to celebrate
 
Amazing win. I admit at first i thought it was getting out of reach with the way Moyo and YK were batting earlier but I'm glad Pakistan won. Great game of cricket for both sides and the neutrals.
 
Finally after the horrific and demoralizing loss to SA in the last ODI at home our team does well in another pressure situation. That loss is all worth it if the team actually learnt from their mistakes that day.

Plenty of positives, Gul new found speed and fighting characteristics, Akhtar bowling well and taking crucial wickets at the right time, Yk and Misbah batting, Afridi and Tanvir keeping their heads and finishing it for Pakistan.

Negatives, extras we need to cut down on those, poor fielding as usual, we wont get away with it next time, lack of activity and talk by Malik out in the field (still not convinced about his captaincy yet but he should continue), poor bowling strategies, more aggression needed.

Overall lets say a brilliant fight back from our boys, India only have themselves to blame especially their batters they should have got to 360 but we fought back well. But next time we wont get out jail so easily, so we better really pull our socks up and play an even better game on the 11th.
 
Great win by the same team that lost so badly last time round.

Lesson to be learnt..... let not get over emotional, we are neither the best or the worst.
 
Btw Oxy, you can't say that at the 30th over mark you weren't thinkig, "Dammit, tehy should move it on" or were thinking that, "oh we'll get thru this eventually" admit it,AGAIN.
 
i actually told one of the people at work we are going to lose again in the last over and he agreed. :)

maybe this is sharjah '86 repeated and our past is behind us once again.

i remember watching benson and hedges '85 :(

Listen. When you are chasing 300, it does NOT mean you should score 6 every over for 50 overs and youll win. Thats not how cricket works. Keep wickets in hand, and 8,9,10 per over is possible at the end.
