Thread: Younus under pressure in Pak-NZealand decider

Dont be so un relying on pakistan. The think yk needs to do is win the toss and bat 1st.

Only way we can win it is by bringing Omar Akmal without dropping Shoab They should have gone with Kami at opener from get go. So if they promote Kami to open and drop Butt we can have Umar come in. That will be ou best team considering the situation.

Man i hate YK. What the hell is Alam talking about? We all know players perform once in a blue moon during bad patches, but several blue moons came and went without the influence of YK! The guy needs to go from ODIs and stick to Tests. If he's under more pressure than any other game, what could possibly go right for him with the bat? Get out with 2 from 2 and FOR ONCE have a strike rate of 100 ???!

I will be very surprised if Pak does not have a good showing. Very true. But I think we may be in a better position to judge after the match. Maybe we should bump the thread if Pakistan win.

Younus will show everyone next match what he's made of, I really hope he gets a century off about 80 balls
