And What's the gaurantee you are going to play every match like that in the world Cup.

You are kinda right but you also have to keep in mind that if there were Murali, Pakistan would have been restricted to like 200... However, Pakistan bowled them out for less than a 100 runs. The point is that its not the Pakistani batting that won us that match, it was the awesome bowling attack. There was a time when Pakistan used to make only 160 or 180 runs and still won matches because of the bowling. Our batting is very shaky, and I wouldnt be surprised if they get 295 runs one day, they'll end up with 150 the next day.
Lets hope they bat well in the wcup, and the bowling is just as good as it is right now.
