Well play Hafeez scored 1/3 of the runs in the innings.

Shows you how important is to score 100's
 
I think we're 30 runs short here..pitch sounds pretty flat!! we should be able to defend but dont be surprised if they get a crazy start!
 
Our bowlers need to bowl tight line and length to win the game. It seems like a batting paradise pitch.
 
Need to look out for Sanga in the chase. He is in beast form these days
 
Will need 100+ opening partnership after 20 overs to stand a chance.
 
Saim Polani: "Last time Pakistan set a target of 300 was against Zimbabwe and Misbah scored only 3 runs in that match and got out early and before that when Pakistan scored 329 against India in Asia Cup 2012, Misbah came to bat at number 7 and now when Pakistan are looking good to score 300 Misbah hasn't even come to bat."
 
Excellent exploits of perfect batting wicket by Pakistan !

New boy sharjeel is real deal, scores brilliantly on ODI debut with consistent scores in previous three T20s. Shezhad got across the line to go early otherwise he was batting well. Mediocre hafeez scored a good ton ! Sohaib was excellent as sharjeel and afridi played a beauty cameo to show he means business in focusing on improving his batting. And umar akmal did'nt throw hos wicket !

322 will be pretty competitive total, its great for batting so lankans will come hard at us so we need to take the top four wickets cheaply to win the match.

Spot on ! I watched the ball coming off wicket so easily onto the bat with batsmen having all the time in the world to time their shots. It won't be easy for us, we need to send kudhal perera, dilshan, sangakhara and mathews back to pavillion as soon as possible cause if we don't then we will watch a very close game. There's nothing in this wicket for fast bowlers. Spin attack will be vital provided there's no dew.
