Mar 19 : Australia vs Pakistan

One wicket to go for Pakistan.

I won't be certain of a Pakistan victory till the last ball is played.
 
Good work Smith, best shot in a long time and hes looked the best of the batsmen so far.


There goes your boy, too :facepalm Can't he just play shots and convert them into doubles. Now with Sloon coming in, i do not think, we will even play full 50 overs.
 
I would like to see Australia getting bowled out.

When was the last time that happened with Australia in a World Cup?

----------

Just as I typed the above Australia is bowled out. :clap

Their lowest total since 1992.
 
I'm gonna guess about 28 matches ago.

Paki's will be 3 out for 2. One of my predictions is bound to be right.
 
The game is for PAK to lose . They have done reasonably well to get the Aussies out for a reasonable target. Lets see if the 2nd innings is easy cruising or hard like it usually has been.
 
Now all depends on our seamers. If Sloon and Binga starts hitting the deck, Pakistan will be crumbling.
 
Best case I think would have been about 200-220, but it's possible to bat worse. There's definitely quite variable bounce. Some batsmen saw the ball sneak under the bat, but there have also been bouncers rocketing past the keeper. There was something there for all bowlers. The key for Australia is to minimise costly errors. They shouldn't be looking to finish this one in the 49th over, they should look to keep the strike bowlers on and knock it over without much of a mid-innings lull.
 
Anyone notice Ian Chappell criticising Pakistan's team huddle after bowling Australia out for 176?
 
Hafees is out, Binga strikes :D
