Misbah and Umar Akmal have rescued Pakistan today but what if we were 33/3 down chasing a target of 270+ (instead of 189)?

I wish I can see hammad and umer in tandem sometime...but maybe both are too aggressive and need a balancer on the other side.

With the amount of overs left, no problem.

This is all ifs and buts, reality is there on the ground.

The bunnies are down again. :hypo: Let’s hope Bangladesh can defeat India in the next match, otherwise, it’s going to be a bit of a boring tournament.

I know there’s like a 1% chance, but one can hope, no? :woho: It’s not like they haven’t handed out a defeat to India before. Do it again!

Re: 2012 Asia Cup: Pakistan v Sri Lanka, Mirpur, Thur March 15

A comfortable win in the end despite the top order wobble (33/3)

Misbah and Umar Akmal won't be there to rescue Pakistan every time. The openers need to take responsibility

Pakistan's batsmen not letting down their bowlers, who set up what was an easy win in the end. Misbah-ul-Haq is applauded off the ground by an appreciative Mirpur crowd. Calm, risk-free batting from both Misbah and Umar Akmal taking Pakistan all but into the Asia Cup final
