You are right that BD can still qualify and Pakistan can still be knocled out but they did play the full 20 overs and there is nothing much they could have done with the final total even if they would have tried to improve their NRR infact some hitting by Misbah and Fawad actually did improve our NRR.
My bad..I thought they had couple of balls left. thanks for the clarification..sorry Waqar bhai :D

but you are right about the calculations. I also did my calculations and if
BD bats first, they need to beat Australia by 7 or more runs
If BD chase the target, they need to do it within 19.1 overs.
So essentially we can say the if Bangadesh wins Pakistan is out (the only exception is that if they win it after 19.1 over while chasing or beat Australia by 6 runs or less while defending)
Re: ICC World T20 2010 - Pakistan vs Australia - May 2, 2010
Challo shukar haMaula ka,..Pakistani team didn’t disappoint me…I was so confused lately after hearing the news that were coming out of the Pakistani training camp under the leadership of Janab Maulanna Waqar Younis Brailwey of Okarra Sharif and Hazrat Pir Ijaz Ahmad Urf Pir Piran of Jaib Trashi and Bogus Checks Waalay……12 hours daily training, long fielding sessions, special fitness settings, psychological training sessions to make players mentally fit, practice 20-20 matches….blah blah blah..lagta tha team ka qibla hee change ho gaya….but shukar ha allah ka, nothing has changed…team quite proudly dropped half a dozen chances, bowled miserably throughout the match, misfielded on numerous occasions, batted without any purpose and plan..and before Aus, they lost to Zimb as well….that is why sianay log khethay hain kay bhangi bhangi hee rehta ha, kuch bee kar lo…gadhay kay aagay cake bee rakh do, wo bhir bee ghass ko hee mooh maray ga…purani habits jaan nahiee chortieen....
Butt's drop catch really cost us. Had he taken it, we could have been chasing 170 instead of 190..
This is hallmark of BUTT, not that he dropped a dolly but never performed because this time there was no BD bowlers, it was australians BTW any idea what Afridi said to BUTT on the DROPPED CATCH occasion?
I think this match is fixed. the team is deliberately underperforming. I mean think about it. how could we lose anything with the world's greatest, smartest, bestest captain in Afridi? the rest of the team must have fixed the match. I blame Shoaib Malik. he is sending match fixing vibes to the team via twitter. yay for Afridi... nay for Malik...
btw did you guys notice Afridi's hair today? extra shiny. yum yum. I think I'm going to go make love to my life size Afridi poster.
maybe you are right, but as far as i am concerned it was conspiracy by jews and indians... how can you miss that, when Pakistan was bowling the whole the out-field seems to be fast, we seldom saw any Pakistani fielder in the ground, ball always landed in the no-man's land, pitch was flat and on top of everything, the boundary was looking too small... but when Pakistan came out to bat, there were Fielders everywhere... the boundaries seems to be longer then ever, even the greatest batsman and bowler and captain and cricketer of all time was struggling to hit the ball out of the ground... the out-field got slow... this was all pre-planned
and the catch Salman BUTT dropped, that was also a conspiracy to undermine this young and ever-GROOMING talent... they had girl standing near to Salman BUTT wearing not very decent cloths... and out POOR young player was staring at her.. otherwise how can anyone miss the catch like that one...
WE need to come out and work the conspiracies against our cricket team...
Actually after clapping and saying WELL DONE, we said something else as well... in wonder what he said!!! although i have idea of what he might have said
