A quick throw from Wasim and Pakistan win by 29 runs and will play
the final later this week, Nov 4 against Sri Lanka
Prolly the most exciting game of the tourney so far, Zimbabwe
almost had it bagged due to Grant Flower's excellent 91 and again
when Marillier was in too
A great performance by Wasim Akram brought Pak back
Superb Wasim analysis, 9-3-19-3
All marks to Zimbabwe too for a great batting performance and
bowling too, restricting Pakistan to 261
On Friday, after a rest day Pakistan and Sri Lanka play a kind of
warm-up for the final on Sunday
Cermonies time
Murphy says we did better this game and GW batted well
In spite of the partnership we were unable to carry on, its been a
good experience and tahnks everybody
Waqar on and says, he thanks God and making us qualify for the
final
We needed a game like this in prep for the final and happy
We had a great start but did not utilise it, we bowled well, no
doubt Wasim is world class, we are behind him and he will make us
fin the final
Sixes award to Afrid for 6 sixes
Most fours, goes to Grant Flower with 11 of them
Grant Flower also Man of the Match
Says facing Wasim and Waqar were difficult to play, our game plan
was to break the partnership with my bro and he did not pick up
the slower ball
It was nice to get a few runs
