Elahi and Youhana just started to up the momentum a bit. Thats the worst time ELahi got out :( but he played pretty well today.

Isn't it about time someone/anyone played from the front effing foot? Or is this some 'secret' plan to attempt to score 300 from the last over!
[/QUOTE]
Ah!!!! yes!!!! the team is getting ready to make up for the shortfall in the second innings. ;)
We are some 20 runs short of runs at this stage and couple of additional wickets lost. :(
Ab to Youhana hee kuch karay to karay. Naheen to...
I am still positive ;)
Astralia is going to face real trouble now, No Warne and Mcgrath's overs finished.... so soon Pointing will be in trouble. if these two play till 35th over then U never know, dont forget Wasim hard hitting, his last world cup, so ..... :)
The've muddled themselves into danger, should have made the most from the first 15. You aren't gonna go over the top from your back foot in this form. Chikay are rapidly out of the question with the woickets in hand dwindling.
Ehsan yes lets hope they do better in the second innings, and all the way through until the 9th innings with a few home runs we may just do it :D
Youhanna’s out now giving catching practice to monkey man. Can you guys believe this sh*t? To describe this batting performance as a damp squib would be being generous. Who the f is Harvey, they should be smashing these joke bowlers out of the ground! 
Younis is in good touch these days, if YoYo and Younis can hold it togather and score steadily until about 40th over we got a chance..
Youhana really needs to start making things happen. He’s been quiet for some time. If both Inzi and Youhana don’t fire, Pakistan is doomed in the near future.
What’s with the Hog, such an ordinary bowler, the Lankans murdered him. Why can’t we? Symonds is an Afridi if there ever was one. If Gilchrist massacred us, I would have understood but Symonds. This pisses me off.
I don’t think we got beaten by the Aussies instead we beat ourselves (as usual). Or let me rephrase that Waqar beat us. This man’s decisions baffle me. Absolutely horrible.
sam,
Yoyo looked in good enough nick then he just played a crap shot. Both him and Inzi really need a big score desperately. Razaq and Younis are basically just playing out, no effort to hit the bowling at all.
How does it work? If they lose, are they out or is it like they have to get a certain amount of points to move on, like in soccer.

They are in a pool of 7 teams, they play the other 6 and at the end of the round 3 top teams go to the next round.
On current form they should pack bags and head home ready for Eid in Pak.
Oh..so it's not the end of the world. I am sure, pakistan is a good team and would bounce back from this. Australia is supposedly the strongest in the world... right? Could be opening round jitters..nothing more.

No it is not the end of the world, this group is known as the group of death as there are four strong teams i.e. Australia, Pakistan, India and England, not to forget Zimbabwe. So every match counts.
Also it is not the fact that they have lost, it is the manner in which they have lost. They had the match in their grasp and lost it from there. I reckon the clash of India and Pakistan on 1 March will be crucial in deciding who goes through out of these two, as they are both struggling at the moment.
Good to see some lusty hitting by Akram and Rashid.
so whats the current score right now? who's batting? what's the score of aussies?
Ehsan: Did India lose already as well? Or are they not playing well in general? I just returned from India and there is a lot of commotion about the teams lackluster play of late.
Aussies : 310/8
Pakistan at the moment: 181/7
And i am praying.
