Afridi, who I believe is going to play an important role in the Pakistani bowling line-up, had an economy rate of 5.33.

Maybe Afridi wud help PAK in acceleating the score in some 3 out of the 9 scheduled matches with this huge hitting.Dont think he would be consistent in achieving that either.

He would NOT be any effective with the ball. His economy rate of 5.33 doesnt surprise me.

PAK in this WC is the weakest team on paper ever to play in a WC since maybe 1983.

People who can win matches for PAK are Yousuf & Inzy. They would enter the next round thx to the format. Had the format been same as 2003 WC, they would have made the exit in round 1 itself
