Misbah-ul-Haq says players are performing well and he is happy. Tells they are enjoying their cricket. Shares the love of cricket never goes away.
Kevin Pietersen says they started okay but Pakistan Champions took the momentum away in phases, there was some mismatch and Pakistan outplayed them. Tells the body at this stage doesn't produce skill which needed.
Shoaib Malik wins the Player of the Match. He says there was lack of practice but says now he is feeling it well. Tells when you cross an age, it's important to have practise. Shares he was ready whenever his skipper wanted to bowl him.
England Champions were chasing a tough target but they were not helped by losing their main man, Kevin Pietersen very early on. The likes of Kevin O'Brien and Phil Mustard got off to a good start but they gave away their wicket. Once they fell, it was just a procession. No one were in a mood to play the decisive innings and in the end England Champions were beaten by a huge margin. A tough day overall for English men who were sloppy with the ball as well but on the other side, Pakistan Champions wouldn't have asked for a better performance.
Pakistan Champions remain unbeaten and confirm their place in the semi finals. They were on a roll today! The bowlers continued to do the job they have been doing from last few matches. All of them were right on the money. The pick of the bowlers were Abdul Razzaq and Saeed Ajmal though. Pakistan Champions had variety and attack to go with and all of them played their part to help win the match.
