Pakistan’s prospects in World Twenty20


The ICC Twenty20 World Cup 2009 is being played in England from June 5 and it will continue till June 21. Twelve cricket playing nations are participating in this 16-day mega event.

All the participating teams have been grouped in four pools of three each, with the top two qualifying for two groups of four each in the Super Eight stage from which the top two teams will qualify for the final.

The teams taking part in the tournament are: Australia, Bangladesh, England, India, Ireland, Netherlands, New Zealand, Pakistan, Scotland, South Africa, Sri Lanka, West Indies.

Pakistan did not play sufficient international cricket for the last one and a half year. Now, they have made it back in a big international event.

In your opinion, what are chances of Pakistan winning in the ICC World Twenty20 tournament? Will they be able to grab the prestigious trophy, or make it to the final, or just reach the Super Eights?
