Left-arm bowlers took nine wickets in Zimbabwe's innings, the most in an innings in a World Cup match.

From BBC. Interesting this.
 
Pakistan win finally ! Excellent performance from irfan and wahab ! What an allround performance by wahab first with bat scoring 54 off 46 balls with 117 strike rate followed by good performance with ball picking 4 wickets. He bowled with good pace hitting 145-150 kph consistently !

I have to say i was dissappointed with lack of deadly yorkers or even decent yorkers.

Nasir jamshed dropping yet another simple catch in this world cup ! This time he dropped a catch in over when it was do or die for us ! I really feel he needs to lose tons of weight, he has lost confidence as a batsman and it is now reflecting on his fielding and catching.
Drop him and bring sarfraz ahmed, umar took five catches off fast bowlers but that one catch dropped off afridi could have lost us the match. Bring sarfraz in and let him open and take keeping gloves.
 
Great Win!!! just wow!!! Really get sick every time I see Jamshed now, he really should never be selected again.
 
Yes, but it's not like you defeated Australia, India or South Africa either.

Have our standards fallen so low that we celebrate a win against Zimbabwe like this? :))

Dude in the context of a do or die this celebration is justified ha ha... Be lenient ha ha..
 
Yes, no doubt you should be happy, but the celebrations are just way over the top :))

Well its passion and again if you r a pakistani you know how jazbaati we are. Not matter to who we lose we always blame the team and no mattet who we beat we always hype the team.

Thats majority of pakistan fans.

And again a country in a state as pak can do with some joy.

Considering people were quick to pull apart our win against Australia it is pretty funny

My dear we as an ODI team have been unsettled ever since last couple of ODI series with batting being unsettled and losing prime bowlers like umar gul, junaid khan, saeed ajmal to injuries and suspect action. You have sohail khan and rahat ali who have not even played 15 ODIs together then you have irfan who is still not fully fit and wahab who is still a bit erratic at times and afridi who is not picking wickets anymore so YES we do need to celebrate this win against zimbabwe in context of our current resources.

I agree celebrations are fine, but not over the top ones though.

We still have a long way too go. The good thing about this win is that it was a close match, so should help calm the nerves and confidence to players, but we still need to keep a calm head.
 
Media Channels are celebrating as if we won the WC :facepalm:
We will have a reality check Next Saturday ..i fear that in those short boundaries in Auckland , ABD and co will kill our bowling we should try 2 lose by as small margin as possible so we have a chance in our last game against Ireland
