Re: 2nd Semi-Final: Pakistan v India at Mohali, Wed March 30
This should get the award for creative optimism:
**we have two options to WIN...take all the remaining wickets or restrict them to under 260 which we'll DO while Pak has ONLY one option and that is to score 261 which they can NOT do...so, we are gonna WIN, iA...

Please Ppl dont cry over spilled milk…appreciate the good things and TRY not to be so upset
It was a game and one team has had to lose and Pakistan is no exception
As far as the hype created by media is concerned, they should divert their focus and pay more attention to some serious issues like the abhorrent and disrespectful incident of Quran Burning, Ppl here will definitely say that game and religion are two different things and one should compare apples with apples and not with oranges but just think what made India and Pakistan arch rivals…
I wish Pakistani media and Pakistani nation play the same role in highlighting this issue at some international level and shows the same unity i happened to observe yesterday…trust me cricket is still here and we are going to watch more interesting and thrilling matches between India and Pakistan…come back to routine now and be optimistic for future and feel a lil relieved as we are not going to worry about Final

BTW Guys, those match fixing news about India losing the match was a hoax spred by bookies. Everyone was betting on India and an Indian victory would mean bookies will have to suffer a huge loss. so they spread the rumor so people can bet on pakistan too to even it out.
Rumors didnt help and still no body betted on pakistan so the betting was closed a day before the game.
i have heard that all betting lines were closed and people didnt bet anywhere close to the amount speculated by media.

Pakistan would have won if they played the match in Pakistan or a neutral venue.
With such a hostile crowd, it gets to the nerves of Pakistan when you are playing in the Lion's Den.
I agree. This was the was worst crowd i have ever seen. From the Indian celebs to the politicians to the average lalloo. Hehe, never seen such wankers before.

^^ that and for all the statements he gave before the game to the media.
he should have keep his mouth shut and let his players do the talking in the match.

Yes respect is earned but no was expecting Indians to salute Afridi either. Afridi played at least seven other matches in two different countries and not once was he booed. Why was Mohali an exception? Not very hospitable, eh?
