Yes they probably won't, but if there is a chance of Ireland causing a major upset, I feel that it is more likely to be against the West Indies than Pakistan, despite the fact that the former won the major encounter. Pakistan are a bit more predictable, even when they are not playing to their full potential. Windies can be world beaters one day and play like immature schoolboys the next. The present team, with its 3 seniors and a bunch of talented but relatively inexperienced youngsters, has a touch of vulnerability about them. A couple of quick wickets - particularly if Lara is one of them - could easily cause them to implode.
