I just remembered... these two teams r in Pakistan's group!!!!! 😆 😕

they both have one point each now!!! 😲 Pakistan shud really concentrate now and win both these upcoming matches, as both of them have one one point each, which is not good news for pakistan! 😕

Inshallah Pakistan will win... or else...... 😆 ok, lets not think of that, pak will win against Zim and Ireland!...
is it just me or doz anyone else think that Ireland is a good team out of the smaller teamz.
