[Agent Smith]

pakistani fans should not get disheartened, all is still not lost but from now on pakistan will find it tough even to make it to quarters.

Last time rain also helped Pakistan to get a valuable point.
Otherwise it was Australia or West Indies..This time too hope rain helps..

 

[jaatram]

last time also 11 players played in 1992 world cup another sign why Pakistan will win the world cup.

It would be better if you had done some HOMEWORK

That Pakistani team of 1992 was brilliant and had many very talented players

Compared to them the present team looks like a bunch of school boys

Pakistan were bowled out by England for 74 runs. Had luck not favored them with the rain in England-Pakistan match, these "talented" 1992 players like Imran Khan, Wasim Akram, Javed Miandad, etc would not have gone on to win the 1992 World Cup. Instead, they'd come home defeated.

1992 WC team was different as compare to the current Pak team.

In One day cricket Luck also plays a part in SOME matches

But there is no doubt or dispute about the calibre of the team of 1992

SImilarly the present team has shown what it is capable of
in the first two matches

They might be talented but they are in very bad form and now you will say
that one good victory will turnaround the fortunes of the team

STILL there is no hope for this team beyond the quarter finals

Yawn:headache;

All of this depends on Pakistan vs Ireland match,if Pakistan manages to defeat Ireland then maybe they have a little chance to win the world cup.

PS-Pakistan should prepare itself for a very serious mauling at hands of SA

 

[N/A]

stop comparing the 92' team to this team, the 92' team played for PAKISTAN this team plays for the Money

 

[JanjaWeed]

Despite their loss to IND & WI in '92.. Pak team still had world class players like Imran Khan, Wasim Akram & Javed Miandad who could turn the fortunes of their team on any given day. You'll struggle to find a single player in the current team who is anywhere close to stature of these guys! It would be foolhardy to even imagine that the current team will replicate the heroics of '92.

 

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

The difference before was the opponents were all reasonably good

Now you are playing UAE and Zimbabway or ireland etc

So you will not improve as tournament goes you might win games and then suddenly you will play Ellite opponent and crumble again


Player like Javed Miandad or Imran Khan if they knew team needed a 120 from them they would stay on crase due to their will power even if they had cramps or muscle issues


The present players are SOFT

 

[JanjaWeed]

Did this happen in '92 after the loss to IND & WI?

Pakistan crushed India 11-0 on the final day of the 12th West Asian Baseball Cup to retain the title, with Iran and India securing second and third places respectively at the event which was held at the Pakistan Sports Board Complex in Islamabad.
Pakistan’s Muhammad Sumair Zawar, Muhammad Jawad, Burhan Johar and Muhammad Ahsan Baig scored two home runs apiece while Zubair Nawaz, Muhammad Arsalan and Muhammad Waqas Ismail scored one each to guide Pakistan to their third straight victory in the tournament.
“Our team did not concede any goal in all three matches, which shows we have a strong pitcher,” Pakistan captain Adil Sardar told The Express Tribune. “It feels great to have teams come from different countries. The Indian team is here for the first time and we’ve realised that Indians and Pakistanis are similar in many ways.”
Meanwhile, India captain Pankaj Chand said that although all games are played with an aim to win, their first priority was to thaw the oft-frosty relations between the two nations. “We came here with a message of peace and harmony, and I think we have achieved that,” said Chand.
He added that the tournament was well organised. “When we left India, we thought there will be problems playing in Pakistan. But we are impressed with every aspect — from security to hospitality, everything is perfect here.”
Iran down Iraq 18-4
Iran defeated Iraq 18-4 to secure second place by winning two out of three matches.
Iran’s Syed Batani and Syed Husnain scored three runs as Majid, Nima, Jalil, Yasir and Yasin contributed two, while Rajab and Majid Muhammadi scored one each.
Iranian captain Kavan Rana said that while the environment in Islamabad was safe and secure, the crowd enthusiasm needs to be worked on.
