[Maher96]

I was thinking 3 down. Even asad isnt as reliable in such situations.

 

[Sherlock]

Oh well, atleast we one 1 series.

 

[Inswinger]

We are basically starting with Asad Shafiq opening the innings.

Yeah. It's a one man team.....

 

[amirfanforlife]

I don't lose hope even if we are 9 down and need 50 runs.

Haha, I did the same against India in Mohali. Then I learned my lesson.

 

[Lara400]

Get Afridi to open with Zia FFS!

Hafeez opening.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

poor wahab Riaz, stayed there for the whole tour but got only 1 game. His performance was bad but deserved another chance.

 

[iZeeshan]

Hafeez to start proceedings

How exciting

Can't believe Wahab is being kept on the bench for Cheema who has no future for this team

 

[Sledger]

I wonder what Pakistan think mentally when they need to bowl first.

Hafeez to start.

 

[Azlan Khan]

Hafeez to open the bowling for Pakistan.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Most Pakistani fans are backing the team. Backing the team, and Believing they can actually win are 2 different things.

Agreed .. but still we have to believe we can win ...

And especially I hope players believe.....

Because we wont win the World Cup batting first every game.. thats for sure...

 

[Maher96]
