Pakistan wont really rip through any top orders.The ripping comes in the 2nd half of the innings,when THE MAN comes in

Anyway,personally,i would have West Indies down as the favorites.There is something really exciting about them.If there was a team other than Pakistan that i enjoy watching,it's them.They've been down and out for so long,and every now and then they blast the opposition away.And unlike the past it's not their bowling,it's the batting.Gayle is a freak.

Anyway.Best Of Luck Byrone.Even if SA beat us,id still love you.

Not as much as i should,but i still would

There is a contest happening in my company to guess the semi finalists, runners up and winners... I'm one of the 3 people to have correctly guessed all the semi finalists... I think the rest of them either had India in their guesses or didn't select Pakistan... These are my other two guesses -
Runners up - South Africa
Winners - West Indies

So Forza South Africa and West Indies

Is your dad rooting for Pakistan?

 

[icemaη]

My dad isn't... My grandfather is though...

 

[HelterSkelter]

Did your grandfather migrate after the parititon?

 

[Zé Tahir]

Grandpa' Iqbal ftw!

Did your grandfather migrate after the parititon?

He used to travel a lot during his youth, spend most of his time in Lahore and what is now Bangladesh (I don't remember which city though)...

Grandpa' Iqbal ftw!

Its my mom's dad actually... His name is Moideen (in case you wanna do a FTW again )

 

[Zé Tahir]

That almost sounds like my younger brothers first name: Mohyuddin. So how far does his support for the team go? Like does he follow the team or he just likes the team?

 

[icemaη]

He used to follow the team, but now he's grown old and isn't too bothered... But when one of my cousins start a discussion about cricket just to piss him off he attacks in full fury... My uncle (who's just a few months older to me ) is carrying the tradition and supports Pakistan with full vigour... He even went to the point of taking Urdu as his second language instead of Hindi at school

I love your fam

Bah Gayle is no match for our bowling & fielding as it was proven in this competition before!

Anyway right back at ya!

We are in agreement,excellent stuff my man.

 

[Byrone]

Anyway without a shadow of a doubt,the highlight of this tournament was having Australia go back home with some humble pie & their tails in between their legs.

lol I couldn't resist:

Semi Final time guys...

Afridi is a fucking nutcase, first ball he faces he whacks over the boundary

 

[Zé Tahir]

And....that's why I was being cautious. After a very good start we were looking very good at 120-3 and then everything went downhill. No boundaries in like the last 5hrs. 149 is very chase able in my opinion. This should make it interesting though.

 

[icemaη]

Afridi on fire!

 

[icemaη]

South Africe choke again
