Group D - Ireland, Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe

Well Afridi is a hard-hitter irrespective of the match situation.
Look at Gilly,Dhoni.
They'll analyse the match and then hit.
Afridi is just a hitter,whereas the others are good hitting players.

I doubt that's the reason for his jibes. Myself, and a lot of others, find Shahid Afridi to be a mindless idiot that cheats in cricket matches and has no consideration for his team's situation.

That was the Old Afridi but since last 2 years he's learnt a little that he is one of the senior players in the team and these days most of the times he is actually performing...

 

[Master Khan]

afridi can be a good player if he wants

Oh yes, he's really performing. In his last 21 ODI's (1st Jan 2006) he has 217 runs at 12.76!

 

[evertonfan]

Try understand his frustration man,,, because England dont have any decent hitters like AFridid... Flintoff is just pure rubbish these days

Oh the irony!

Pakistan asked to bat first with both Kaneria & Rana out and Azhar & Sami in! Its going to be a interesting game for Ireland

 

[Karachi Xpress]

Hafeez already gone

 

[surendar]

Two superb deliveries getting rid of those two wickets! Ponting shd really watch today's game with Bangladesh roaring on India in one side & Ireland on Pakistan in other side.

 

[Cricketman]

Cmon Ireland!!! Minnow Power ftw.

 

[aditya123]

This could be the`Minnows day of fame` in this world cup !

 

[surendar]

But still, there is grass on the wicket which will be very very handy to Pakistan pacers! Ireland has to work very hard to stay competitive throughout.. Lets see how the first 50 overs go!

Pakistan lost another two quick wickets.. Totally 4 wickets gone and are in deep trouble.. Excellent Ireland so far!

 

[pal]

IRELAND!! You beauty!

What a stunning start by the Irish here! Inzamam falls for 1 and Pakistan are struggling at 58/4.

Let's keep up the momentum, fellows.

 

[BigCrickNan]

COME ON IRELAND!!!! What a team. Pakistan getting pwned on St. Patricks day.

 

[Dare]

looks like its on Malik to to save Pakistan again, Inzamam has been in horrible form for about 6 months, and with only Akmal and Mahmood being able to relly bat Pakistan are in deep trouble.

 

[Leicester Fox]

India and pakistan are both getting outplayed by the underdogs,maybe this year it will be a copletely non-asian semi-finals! Theres still a long way to go yet though, come on Ireland!!

Ireland are better than England....
