so Pakistan should go all out instead of throwing in Asif and Fawad in place of Rana Sahab and Nazir?
If they can figure out a way to squeeze Asif within the final 11 it will be good. Could be at the epxense of Gul.
Another option will be to drop Ajmal so that even if Australia qualifies for the semi and than if they meet Pakistan again in the final (assumptions) they will face Ajmal for the first time in the tournament.
Interestinly whenver Pakisan and Australia have met in a tournament (once in a pool game game and then in the final) the results have been similar. This has happened twice. Once during 1999 World cup and then later during 2001 in England.
On both occasions Pakistan beat Australia in the pool games by batting first and scoring a big total which Australia failed to chase. While both finals have been one sided with Pakistan batting first and getting out cheaply.
Tomorrow's encounter will be a must watch game. India will be following closely the match before they start their game and even during their game. Luckily for them their encounter with Windies is a day night game while Pakista's is a day game.
