A short article written by me. Hope you all enjoy. Take a deep breath and imagine the scene. It's the 5th of July. A Friday, what is known as a blessed day for Pakistanis. Is today the day for miracles? The Pakistani captains strides to the wicket for the toss. A cornered tigers shirt on his body. Memories of 92 are still alive but only briefly. Even the most die hard fans dont dare to believe, but still the thinnest of Hope exists. Back home a few people still pray on their prayer beads and hands are still raised in dua. This is Pakistan. You just never know. Amateur mathematicians have pondered over every possible scenario. the chances are so remote that they are beyond impossible. A victory that will smash the world record and become the greatest comeback in not just cricket, but sport as a whole! Sarfraz' cornered tigers shirt is stretched over his slightly rotund body so that instead of roaring the tiger ironically appears to be yawning. Is this a sign? He takes a good hard look at the pitch. It wont happen...but the pitch looks like it could contain a lot of runs. Surely it's too late though? Sarfraz appears confident. Unwaveringly so. The bangali captain appears. It's time for the toss. The coin is tossed. It spins in the air for an age. 200 million prayers will it to land on the correct side. It lands...and Sarfraz wins the toss. It's a small victory but today this is crucial. The microphone is given to him. Sarfraz what will you do? Thats the question asked but it's one everyone knows the answer to today. He smiles and answers. 'The pitch is looking good but theres some early moisture in the wicket. We will have a bowl'
You forgot the rest of the part, Pak decides to bowl, Bangalis make 300+, and then rattle us out under 150. Game over.
We need to bat first and score like there is no tomorrow. I would say make sure from 1st over to score 12 runs an over. Need to score close to 600. We would need to do something which is never done before to qualify.
We lost the last two tosses this one Sarfaraz will win. Whatever will happen after that will be at least fun to watch.
Stranger things have happened. 10 an over gives u 500. Rather lose and go all out than win by narrow margin.
I feel sorry for you guys that you still are backing them. In reality basically they will drop Fakhar for Hafeez and give Malik a farewell match and even if they win the toss theyll bowl first because they're OGs like that. loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
Hafeez Fakhar Babar Shoaib Malik Harris Sohail Asif Ali Sarfraz Wahab Amir Shaheen Hasnain Win the toss, bowl first and unlock that surprise package Inzi was talking about! Give Hasnain the new ball alongwith Amir! Just tell them go out and bowl Bangladesh for 50 runs! We need to chase that target within 9 overs! Tell them bowl as quick as you can!!
Yes, Sarfraz have made many mistakes but the decision to bat first or bowl after winning the toss is team's decision, which included coaching staff, captain, (CS, since he's with the team and actively participating) & senior players, therefore, to put the blame the only on Sarfraz about the decision is plain wrong !
The green mamba that's been prepared dashed all hopes, pakistan not had rub of the green in this world cup at all
