Holy Moly! If
someone had said to me six months ago that I would
post two consecutive pieces about cricket, I would
never have believed them.
But anyway, Pakistan's tour-de-force of an innings has left Zimbabwe with an almost impossible task, and as I write are 94 for 9 from 18 overs. I'm glad that Pakistan have managed to redeem themselves, as they have had a horrible campaign, losing their two opening matches and then suffering the suden death of their coach, Bob Woolmer. Pakistan is a proud cricketing nation, and to have to go home whitewashed after all they have been through would have been too much.
Their expected win means that Ireland have reached the Super 8 stage for sure. Think ahead to Friday - both Ireland and the West Indies have already qualified. Neither side needs to win to stay in the tournament. They will be playing for fun. That can only mean one thing:
