It was 8th May 2010...The sword was on the heads and the team was one among the deads...
Yes after loosing against all major teams Australia,England it was Do or Die and Pakistan was thinking something high...
With Kiwis bowled out for 133..It seemed Pakistan would pass the super six phase easily..But it wasn't that easy..They bowled well but batted more like a drama..with the match ending on last ball as the wicket of Abdur Rehman...Kiwis had a rise to skies but still depending on a SAF win against Pakistan which was not on the cards...
A very close one indeed some bad batting display and win of last ball...Pakistan depreciated the NRR though and was easily into the semis after NZ could not withstand English rule....
It was Eng Vs SL then Eng won easily..and as SL prepared to pack the bags home...they something unusual...
A match that no one could ever had predicted....While Pakis had a high stake in bet's Aussies had low rates in bet's..Ofcourse an Australian win was written by ICC fans on cards after a dramatic performance by Pakistan
But it didn't stayed long as ICC fans tuned their TV's for live first innings telecast on 14th May..It looked like its raining Cats and Dogs for Pakistan..Lucky Indeed..As the first of the Akmal Brother started firing with his battling bat Aussies were hopeless...
As Nannes,Tait were pushed back to boundaries...Clark was forced to go for some new tries till Johnson was brought into the attack
But it wasn't over till yet...suddenly as Kamran had a Fall his younger brother stood up Tall with a marvelous 56 from 35 n.o beating the strike rate of his elderly brother...
Both of them amounted 106 off 69 balls...and ended with 191 on board..
Phew! everyone could smell Aussies sweats...
A first over maiden and 191 in ending....Sleepy eyes got a wakeup call to Paki fans...with bowling as their major area of concern Pak could feel the win easily....
Aussies started off badly with warner back to pavellion for 0 but it was MEK Hussy who ended it in style with a dashing 60 off 24 and Aussies won comfortably. Last over with like rockets flying out of Hussys jerousy's pockets..
Indeed a dramatic win but indeed it was a good win to...
