Two new batsmen at the crease....

malinga really looks a shadow of his former self, albeit a rather chubby shadow

Pakistan are maybe throwing this away.

Yep.......

Pakistan have time, but 70 runs looks a long way off.

At 1 for 90 they seemed to cruising

pakistan's biggest weakness was not really having that power hitter at the top of the order to get them off to a fast start

they got that today, got themselves well ahead of the required rate and only needed just over 4 per over when Zaman got out, but have still struggled

Azhar Ali and Hafeez need to be ditched.

[yuppie]

From what i understand Pakistan have a few players banned for Match fixing. Does Pakistan actually have the talent coming through to replace those in the team now?

[yuppie]

With SL gifting runs, just maybe Pakistan are not out of this yet

yeah i was just thinking it looks like they are both trying to lose this game atm

[yuppie]

Obviously the bye in the semi final is not incentive enough to win........

[dan08]

Both teams don't want to win...

[rich1uk]

what a drop !

that could have been the game

[yuppie]

SL have made 2 very poor fielding errors at the end of Pakistans innings.

Neither team wants to win it would seem.
