even though pakistan won the tournament and i think it was a slap to the face for every other team..i dont think anybody will still go to pakistan to play cricket…the political situation has not got any better…bombs are still goin off and its gonna take time for any country to go there…i am an indian and i would india to there but lets hope it happens sooner than i think

it was nice to see Pakistan Cricket Team giving their country men something to cheer about. Pakistanis really needed it. It shows that after all the pain and all that is lost we haven’t given up and we never will… wounds are ways to reveal us… the world saw what the color green actually looks and feels like..

Pakistan has a lot of skills in cricket, what they need to use these cricket skills properly, Pakistan cricket board can play the main role in using the skills. They bring lot of players but after few months those players can’t perform anymore, Pakistan should work in this kind of problem. What Pakistan cricket needs is to have a democratic cricket board. Crickit board shouldn’t run by any army person.

Yes Pakistan proved they still matter otherwise not very long ago people were writing that Pakistan is mis match against Australia when they were playing in Dubai. Christian Ryan especially wrote “The main non-event”. Some others were were writing that India vs Australia is much more competitive than India vs Pakistan. Now I wish I could ask all those “EXPERTS” which is the better team?

Where does Pakistan go from here? Weii Pakistan have played hard cricket and PCB officials did say that they need to attract other cricket nations to come to Pakistan and play cricket. They have definately sent a very strong message to the world by winning the T20 World Cup, and hopefully they are perhaps now one of the teams to beat. Pakistan should also look to work closely with ECB, i feel with someone like the ECB they will benefit hugely and i feel that to resume International cricket they need the support of some other International cricket board As far as talent is concerned then i see that there is not much of a problem, but the only problem lies in that there is not much cricket to play if any at all. Therefore it is vital to get cricket played, ideally you would want some home games, but now the team has got this composure, it will definately help. So keep on with the good work and be positive and PAKISTAN ZINDABAD and always will be Dil Dil Pakistan

“tournaments like the IPL and the Champions League are going to be far more important than the traditional Test series.” ???? wtf! i guess you could take that view??? i would think pakistan would want the form and team unity that won them the T20 cup to continue onto the 50 over and test match forms of the game. the champions league is just the IPL finalists playing other domestic teams from around the world that dont even draw 2000 fans through the gate when playing at home. dont just solely focus on twenty20 pakistan just because that is what your good at, aim to be as good in the other forms aswell!

Semi Final 1: Pakistan vs South Africa
Right, well the Super 8’s are done and dusted, time to move to this big game.
I’m gonna fancy Pakistan’s chances simply because of South Africa’s tendency to *cough*choke*cough* in Semi Final games (1992,1999, and 2007), That’s what I’m relying on for Pakistan to win the game anyway… South Africa choking |

They’ll choke based on past history
That’s a logical enough reason for me… lol We don’t deserve to be in the semis though… all we really did was beat New Zealand. Oh well, one non-associate/minnow win is better than none |

South Africa seem to have quality in every department, with little weakness.
That said, I reckon Pakistan’ll cause an upset, to comply with my prediction a while back, Quote:

I wont be! I wont mind it if Pakistan win here and go to the final. It would be actually good to see a Pakistan vs Sri Lanka final (although that would not be deserving since South Africa have been the best team of the competition and Pakistan have beaten only one big nation, New Zealand). |

Guys I’m Indian and I dont support Pakistan…but after long long time I have feeling that pakistan will win against SA this time not because SA will choke but they will reel under pressure of Afridi, Azmal and GUL….dangerous bowling…

Even an article has been made about South Africa’s choking. But I feel that they will go through now.
South Africa look to shake chokers’ tag |

Pakistan will be happy to have come this far. Even Younis said that he would be happy to finish in the final four. So even if they lose here, they and their fans should be happy enough. Also they have finished ahead of India and so thats something that their fans would rejoice.
If Pakistan go to the final, it will be a big bonus for them. But I dont see it happening if SA maintain the form. |
