Asia Cup 2014

****PakVsSL****

And so on 8th March 2014, the historic match of Asia Cup championship 2014 was held

Let me start by saying very well played by both teams.
Pakistan had won the toss and chose to bat first.
Within the first over,Sharjeel was declared out.Later the pressure started building up when Shahzad and Hafeez got out as well.
The partnership of Misbah and Fawad played an immense role and took Pakistan out from the pressure that existed.
Fawad Alam was the star if I talk about today's match.He had scored a century which is highest score in ODI.He is the 5th order batsman.
During the 1999 finale, the same scenario had occurred when Mohummad Yousuf was 5th order batsman who had scored century as well.
Wrapping up,Pakistan gave away a target of 260 with the lost of 4 wickets.

Now,coming to Sri Lanka. Well the match played was outstanding.
The pressure might have built up on SriLankans when Ajmal had taken two wickets back to back.
But,Thirimanne and Mahela had struggled with a partnership scoring 156 which contributed to the victory of Sri Lanka.
Thirimanne had scored a century as well from the Sri Lankan side.

Although Sri Lanka has gained the title to be Asian champs yet Pakistan is honored to have performed so well through out the tournament and defeated India.

Asia Cup 2014:Pakistan vs India

Ok so yesterday that is on 2nd March 2014, aired the most exciting and thrilling match for cricket lovers. India vs Pakistan  You never know who will win the match that makes this match all too exciting. India had given target of 245 to Pakistan which had although seemed distant but was yet accomplished. The game plan did flip flops in the last five overs when Pakistan was at strike. After the catch out of Umer Gul, the match had seemed quite out of grip. Later Saeed Ajmal went out developing pressure on Pakistani team. It was all on the shoulders of Shahid Afridi which he not only suceeded but also did it quite remarkably with his last and amazing match winning six. One thing interesting is that such scenario between India and Pakistan had also occurred once during the Sharjah cup back in 1985/86 with only one wicket remaining. At that time,Javaid Miandad had hit the match winning sixer and now it was Shahid Khan Afridi. There is indeed similarity in the two Asia c...
