Pakistan would be fuming after their defeat to India in the final of inaugural World T20 in South Africa. But they have put their disappointment to bed and have reached the semis this term.
Will they go one better this term and become World T20 champions or will they lose their way in the tournament?
Or else will SA or Sri Lanka Or the Windies become champions?
My favourite are South Africa. They deserve the title if they do become the chapions come the finals.

Have fun!

they are better than last time.their batting is a little concern to me but with afridi back in form its going to be a big headache for the opposition.they are my favourites to win this time.if the cup may not be in india but atleast it will be in the indian sub continent.

Pakistan cannot become worldchampions. Winning a match or two doesn`t mean that they can win every match. South Africa, Sri Lankha and WestIndies, all the three teams are much stronger than Pakistan. It`s hard for them to even reach semifinals.
Firstly, they aren`t confident at all. Their captain, Younis Khan in a post match press conference after their defeat to England said that they are not taking this tournament seriously and thay may even not qualify for super eight.
Secondly, there are lot of politics in the team and they lack discipline. We have seen it many times, they being punished because of one or the other reason.
Thirdly, they lack unity.Nobody know when they fight within themselves and lastly ego factor
I agree they reached semi finals but any team facing these many problems cannot be consistent and at this level they are playing against the best.
So, i think they won`t reach even finals.

i seriously hope not....
but they might.despite not having played cricket for so long they are a really good team.they have good team work and they are a strong side.lets not forget they have umar gul.although i am supporting south africa, who are by far the strongest side....this is t20 and anything can happen....remember australia gor knocked out in the group stages itself
i guess we'll just have to wait and watch
