Sensible comments. Pakistan did really well in the tournament, considering their issues. They topped in a group and also beat Australia. No one expected Pakistan to play semi finals before the world cup. They lost the semifinal match due to pressure, bad decision etc. I do not rate India's semifinal win convincing compared to their quarterfinal win. The highlight of the semifinal match is Pakistan's errors than India's playing/ tactics. Hope India play really well in finals.

I'm not sure why everyone thinks that Sachin's catches were easy. They were mighty blows. I don't believe that the Paki fielding was too bad. Akmal drops tough ones, but that is fully expected.

At last some sensible comments from their former players. Accept the defeat and move on to build a good team for the future.

Yususf is not consistent now. It is better to play Kohli you can make this out from the average in the recent matches.

I also would prefer Ashwin in Place of Ashish Nehra who is a better bat and fielder in addition we can get a spinner also.

Yusuf has wasted all his chances given to him. So no point in disturbing the set team.

Kohli has got chances at no.4 continously and he has a chance to play more overs but Yusuf had a less chances in less overs and that is in criticial situation. If you give 10 chances at no.4 to yousuf he can prove he is better than other players at that no.4

former captains and players backed the national team
by patrick samuel on Mar 31, 2011 03:21 PM

Pakistan's former captains and players backed the national team despite its defeat in the high-octane World Cup semifinal clash against arch-rivals India at Mohali on Thursday. When they could not do, they can't expect others to do. Everybody knows they all lost to India four times before this and they have nobody to blame.

All Srilankans yesterday were supporting pakistan. Whenever India plays,Srilankans always support only the opposition. India should win this world cup final against Srilanka.

dear, this is the most inexperience side of pakistan, most of them are picked directly, they drop sachin 5 time, Misbah willingly wasted so amny balls, powerplay taken in the last 5 overs when no one was there, last day infact Pakistan playes for us. But one thing is there, there gali kaa cricketer are talented than our hyped cricketer.

Just at the right time...
by Oye Kake on Mar 31, 2011 02:38 PM

it was talked before the world cup that INdian batting order was the strongest; However I give full credit to our bowlers they unite themselves together and produced a great bowling attack;
The unity was such that all the five bowlers used got 2 wickets each :);

I hope this team picked up at right time to thrash SL in the final;
