Yesterday Pakistan hold their nerves and win convincingly against the Bengals, although they do made the party somewhat sour with their gutsy batting and while their former skipper was on the crease, it looked as if another upset is going to happen.
Unlike other teams utilizing and capitalizing on their medium pacers and spin department, Pakistani pace battery fired with 5 off 7 wickets were bagged by Sami and Aamer with 3 and 2 wickets a piece! Pakistan was playing without Muhammad Asif who was rested for yesterday's match prior the important match against the Aussies on the same venue tonight.
Again I need to mention that I am not a great fan of statistics or past performance but the current form is what important. Pakistan off late have been trembling in T20s against Australia and barely squared the series against English at Dubai late March, but if I go through T20I records between Aussies and Pakistanis, Pakistanis have the edge with a handful margin, but one can't predict Pakistan's performance on a given day, one must keep notice of the fact that yesterday's and today's match would be played on the used pitch i.e. India v South Africa would be played on the same pitch earlier in the day.
So whether Pakistan wins the toss or loose it shouldn't be loosing heart and play with their whole heart out. Inshallah we'll lead this group of death as called by some of the foreign commentators.
