Pakistan won the match against Sri Lanka, and AUSTRALIA!! Can you believe it? I wouldn't have if I wasn't there to witness it ;)
Good going team, you've done me proud. I see a completely new unit, one that never says die, and fight out the match.
Special mentions: Misbah-ul-Haq. Really impressive, with two 50's... I think this guy feels no pressure at all!! And if he does, he has a good head on his shoulders and has good sense.
Shoaib Malik. A senseful captain, and has been delivering good captain's innings recently.
Younis Khan was brilliant with the bat against Sri Lanka, and has a wonderful, safe pair of hands. Ever the energetic too, always smiling and laughing.
Shahid Afridi :D When he's not into it with the bat, he's ready with the ball... and always involved in the field. He's been great in both games with the ball and on the field :)
And last but not the least, our fielding standards have lifted up a lot. Keep it up guys! You rock!!
We're in the semifinals now; The first semi-final will be Pakistan vs...?? xP
The next match: Wednesday 20th September, vs. Bangladesh. Keep cool, and do good :)

Pak vs. Scotland, World Twenty-20, 12/9/07
Yup... my team won!! Yayhoo!!!
Well, comparing the standards of the Pakistani team and the Scottish cricket team, I myself can't believe I am actually rejoicing. But then, my team have a habit to get you to eat your words thoroughly, whether you're against them or supporting them (yeah, they are that unpredictable).
Things started tumbling from the start for the green team, and it wasn't until Younis came in that we got some solidarity. And then Afridi... well, I'm such a big supporter of him, and he really did make me all twirly by piling up 22 runs in just 7 deliveries and about 5 minutes :P
Then he comes back to pick 4 wickets; deservedly the man of the match.
Credit where it should be; Scotland did real good to skittle Pakistan at the start :)
The next big game: Pakistan vs. India, 14/09/07. Again, if I say something supporting my team, or against them, I'll be eating my words later on...
... Oh what the heck. I'm a die-hard fan, so Good luck to Pakistan!! We'll beat em up good!! :D
