Well batted New Zealand! That's a very large number of runs to score in the last five overs. I suspect there will be allegations from someone, somewhere about something...

Gad, even I'm thinking that following the fun and games in the summer...

Unreal hitting by NZ. Taylor, Nathan McCullum and Jacob Oram had the Pakistanis on the run. Stunning hundred by Roscoe!

Last 5 overs got battered for 100 runs!!!

!!!!!! is this true lol!

Kamran Akmal single handed cost Pakistan the match. If the management drop him after the performance its better it was in the group stage rather than the knock outs.

All keepers are going to drop catches, granted he maybe drop's more than most but he certainly wasn't fully to blame for the defeat.

He dropped 4 today mate, 3 of them regulation. With the Kiwis going less than 4 an over around the 35th and had Taylor been out we were looking at a 220 target. Against Sri Lanka Kamran missed 2 stumpings of Sangakarra but he was not in the mood to make Pakistan pay like Taylor. Against Canada he dropped 1 catch and I am not sure about the match against Kenya.

There were other issues in the match as well. Pakistan's opening pair failed again and the team selection was far too defensive for a helpful track. They should have gone with 3 if not 4 front line fast bowlers.

62 runs from the last 16 balls he faced.

I think it is pretty fair to blame the loss on Kamran Akmal. He is absolutely useless behind the stumps.

The great thing in hitting is, not to be half-hearted about it; but when you make up your mind to hit, to do it as if the whole match depended upon that particular stroke.

Sri Lanka vs Zim - Zim elect to bowl and Sri Lanka are 244/0 after 41 overs.

I think the skipper might be in for a hard time after that one...!!

Zim have been very unlucky Buzz, numerous mis-hits just avoiding fielders.

Unlucky or just pants? Nobody is unlucky to the tune of 264/0 surely!
