Other than Mr. Extra, who do you think will be the man of the match?

** The day belonged to Akram and in an interview after the match he dedicated the 500 wickets to his supporters. Well played Akram **

Great stuff, so how does the Group A table stand now RR etc

Not a very convincing performance by the Pakistani batsmen one more time. If they cant get big runs against Netherlands, what can one expect against agaisnt the likes of Australia, South Africa or even India. Inzi is going through the worst patch of his life. We should give him a break against India. Open with Taufeeq and Anwar. For some reason Razzaq has looked rusty eversince his return from injury. He seems to lack confidence. The same problem is with out batsmen. They look nervous and not confident even agaisnt an ordinary dutch attack.

We will have to pick up our game by a considerable margin agaisnt India. Hopefully Waqar will use some sense agaisnt India and the batsmen will perform. :jhanda: Inshallah India ke against jeet hamari hogi.

Man of the Match: Youhanna

Here is the standing of the teams in pool A:

YOYO ki english was just tooooooo hottt too handle lolzz

:jhanda:CONGRATS WE WON :jhanda: :jhanda: :jhanda: :bhangra:

Why in the hell Huq got out on duck & the best bowling side in the WC gave 40 runs in extras???! :o

Hey Saeed didn't look too bad when he was bowling. He didn't look any less like taking a wicket than Saqi or Razzaq that's for sure.

Well done Wasim on getting 500. It was a great feat and nice to see the Dutch team lining up to shake his hand as he came off. Big beaming smiles from Was all the while :D

see…dutch are great sportsmen! even when they lose, still keep up the gentlemen-spirit :d:hehe:

Yeah Nes, the Dutch have been great sports throughout this tournament and Namibia too. I like their approach and enthusiasm.

kick the fat butt out for sure. Thanks for playing Taufeeq Umer :k: It was good to see 3 batsmen scoring 40+, phew, overall a disappointment :(. 253 only.

we can’t afford another duck by Inzi.

the best of all, CONGRATS to WASIM for passing 500+ mark!!!

:jhanda: Pakistan Won :jhanda:

Inzi, what are you thinking? Sometimes you disappoint me…:confused: :mad:
Congrats Wasim Akram. You are the man. I hope you play few more years. :k: :k:
Not a great win by Pak but win is a win. Now I got some hosla back.All we need to do is win against India and Zimbabwe. And we are in super six. Inshallah!:jhanda:

Inzi's been having too many ducks, we can't afford buying ducks for him anymore and him eating it all up withen a minute. ;)

Congratulations to Wasim. He truely is the best.
All I can say is, big game tomorrow boys... something not to miss.

Congratulations Wasim.....
Inzi is on hat-trick of ducks....

This might be a first. but all i can say now is for tomorrow's
England vs India match - sarai england sai acha, hindustan sab ka ;)

Great performance by wasim,
Inzimam out for a duck, but I donno if some of you saw the nick off the bat, I would say it was bad luck and lazyness on the part of Inzi at the same time, bad call by the ump. it was a clear nick.

Yousuf showed he can do it, I still think he'll be the anchor along with Saeed Anwar and Taufiq Umar, these three were the only guys that really seemed to have some sort of form today. Razzaq played well but was not too convincing.

Pakistan should bring in Taufiq and Saeed opening vs india, and bring azhar mahmood in i still think, and bring inzi at 3 this time,

Saeed used to bowl a long time ago back in 89. He's going to be good enough to go through 3-4 overs once in a while if Razzaq gets hammered by the better teams.

The extras were ridiculous...they need to get their act together..what has Foster been teaching them??

As for the batting...Saeed, Taufeeq and Youhana look like they are in some sort of touch though they need to get big scores...Inzamam doesent have any confidence and doesent even seem like he wants to get runs. He should be dropped...but unfortunately the only replacement is Younis Khan who cant bat to save his life...so looks like Inzy's gonna keep his place.

None of them looks in prime form although at least Taufeeq has some fight in him. The problem with dropping Inzi is that there's no one who could make a convincing case for replacing him. Younis Khan doesn't look capable of doing any more than scraping around, Afridi's hopeless, and Elahi was out to a shocker today.
