Cricket pundits never imagined that Pakistan would overcome the formidable Kiwis and South Africans and make it all the way to the T20 finals. Since the experts keep getting it wrong, we thought we’d allow you take a shot at guessing what will happen in tonight’s match.
If Pakistan wins the toss, should they bat or field? What will be the target? Is Malinga going to sling us off the field or will Gul beguile the Lankans? And will Afridi be able to maintain his stellar run and keep his eyes open as he bats? Share your predictions with us.
Who cares what the final score will be and who will bat first. All I can say that I am 100% confident that Pakistan will be victorious and will bring the trophy back home.
Insha’Allah.
OUR PRIORTY IS NOT A MATCH WIN . BUT THEIR
110%. Results doent matter for me .
BUT PAKISTAN SHOULD BAT FIRST AND BAT WELL.
THE SCORE OF 170 WILL BE MORE THAN ENOUGH.
ON THE FIELD THESE PREDICTION DOESNT MATTERS BUT PERFORMANCE DO.
SO PAKISTANI GIVE YOUR 100% & HOPE FOR THE BEST AND HAVE A BLAST BLAST MATCH
BLESS YOU
Pakistan is destined to win the final match, no matter if Pakistan bats first or Sri Lanka.
Cricket lovers should hold their breath to witness the final moments of the concluding match.
Well done – Great players of Pakistan. This time also success is yours.
If Pak bats first
Pak between 150-160
SriLanka will not be able to chase (inshallah)!
If Pak bowls first:
God help us!
Pakistan will win this one. Allah will show mercy this time. We have suffered a lot already, and need this win badly.
pak would be the winner of 2009 T-20 worldcup 100%
I would like to endorse the comment by Mr. Saulat.
Definitely, the previous matches history says,the team that will bat first, will win.
If Srilanka bats first and scores more than 150, pakistan will lose.
If Pakistan bats first and scores more than 150, Srilanka will lose.
Pakistan should bat first. The openers should be the usual, Shahzaib and Kamran, and they both should be given the command to go berserk. Afridi should be brought in if either of them gets out (who should be told to play his usual game with a little bit of sensibility). Then, if an opener gets out, Malik should come in. However, if afridi gets out then Misbah should be brought in to stabalise the innings. Razzaq and Younis should be left lower in the order (but they should try and play the last 5 overs better than they did against SA in the semi final!).
With regards to bowling, Pakistan should use up all 4 of Gul, Afridi and Ajmal’s overs. Use all of afridi and ajmal’s overs somewhere between 9-18 overs. Make sure Umar Gul starts his spell early and has 1/2 overs left for the end. Aamer and Razzak should still open the bowling.
I hope Sri Lanka win. I think whoever bats first has the advantage.
Taking into account as to what has happened up to now, Pakistan has to aim at least 200 runs in 20 overs to be in a good position.
Srilanka will win, it will make around 180plus runs, pak will win the toss and ask srilanka to bat.
Pakistan will make around 162 runs all out.
The game will be exciting to watch espcly Jayasuriya batting.
if pakistan bats first
pak 155/8
sri 140/7
if srilanka bats first

Afridi will score 200 runs and Gul will take 11 wickets.
if pakistan bats first 165 for7 1n 20 overs and sirilanka 160 all out in 19.4 overs.
gul taking 4 wickets and abdul razzak taking 3, shahid afridi 3.
Top scorer pakistan side younus khan 42 in 38 balls.
If srilanka bats first 142 for 5 and pakistan wins by 3 wickets in 19.2 overs.
well.. you never know with Pakistan. It has a real chance of winning because the way they have entered the finals must have made Sri Lanka a bit uneasy. But then again Sri Lanka has remained consistent and is in very good form. I would say its anybody’s game but will incline a bit towards Pak.. =) lets keep our fingers crossed..
IF PAKISTAN BAT FIRST (INSHA ALLAH)
PAK 172/7
IF SRULANKA BAT FIRST
SRI 158/9
pakistan will lose this match very closely.
Let’s hope Pakistan win the toss and bat first.
Put on 160 and let Afridi/Ajmal & Gul do the business!
Should be a good game but win or lose, the tournament has put Pakistan back on the cricket map again and shown that they are a force once again..
Sri Lanka will beat Pakistan irrespective of the toss.This prediction is based on the batting form of Dilshan and the bowling strenght of Murali, Mendis & Malinga. Overall Sri Lankan fielding is good if not brilliant whereas Pakistan fielding can be at best average and at worst shoddy & wretched. However there is always that unpredictability factor which helped Pakistan to beat South Africa. Pakistan has played its final game and would run out of luck.

pakistan will take the cup 20/20
To me, ideal situation would be; Pakistan to bat first and post atleast 150 to give bowlers a chance to bowl.
Srilanka will win the match whether bet first or field first.
The match would be easy go for Srilanka. Pakistan bating line will collapse against Srilankan’s bowling
Lets not get into the argument – who will take the T20 cup home. Pakistan has achieved what they suppose to, now wining the last battle in T20 Cup doesn’t matter. For us they are the WINNER.

Pakistan Will win InshaAllah,
