Yaaro, dont jump to conclusions. Its woolmer's third game in charge and we cant expect over night miracles. Old habits die hard and he must be getting taste of pakistani performances. I am hopeful that he would be able to rectify these collapses in the long run.
^ Woolmer is besides the point, I don't think anyone was expecting overnight miracles. However, 122 on a docile batting pitch, batting first, there is just no excuse for that. These so called collapses, why do they only seem to plague this team, I don't think even Bangladesh sufferes from such lapses as frequently as these bufoons do. In fact, UAE was able to score 123 batting second against Sri Lanka. Is that where we stand now?

We are Pakistanis we can do anything. Is this just a bad day at the office or something more deep rooted?

There's nothing much can be done with rank stupidity in shot selection. Nazir, Yoyo, Malik and Younis all got out to bad shots and made the Sri Lankan bowlers look like world beaters. It's just poor batting from sub-standard players (Yoyo excepted).
Such a collective refusal to work. That can´t be excused.
I'm so glad I didn't see the match... came to work early - wut a pathetic bunch a losers!!

True. Woolmer has a mountain to climb with this lot.
Our bowlers still can't control the extras.
^^ Aaj control kar bhi laite to kya hona tha?
15 wides? but I guess 122 is not something to defend for...so bowlers can be excused for going that extra mile to attack
ohoo lag gaye aaj to.
bowlers are bowling really well :k:
sami shabbir n razzaq.
moin dropped avishka and that was unlucky.
paki’s are just unlucky today.
no luck
I think Pakisan are lucky to lose this match...so now we have the opportunity to make up our minds and perform better in the next 2-3 (more important and prize-winning) matches... :)

It's certainly not going to happen overnight but I never expected that to be the case. At least Sami and Shoiab have bowled well so far with the shortened run ups which is a plus.
