2nd ODI match Pak vs SL

Pakistan lost, but there is no shame in going down fighting. Yes surrender is always shameful.

In the next match, Sohail Tanvir must be replaced with Anwer Ali.

Moreover, we only scored 43 runs in the 1st power play of 10 overs, which is absolutely not acceptable.

We must aim for 80 runs in the first 10 overs of the power play, when only 2 fielders are allowed outside the 30 yards circle, never forgetting that not failure, but low aim is a crime.

Further, Misbah should have allowed to bat Umer Akmal and Bilawal Bhatti, ahead of himself.

We must not forget that Pakistan lost, when only 3 balls of the last over were left, meaning thereby that Pakistan was just short of 8-10 runs, which hard hitting batsmen like Umer Akmal and Bilawal Bhatti, would have quickly scored.

Anyway, we must learn from our mistakes, which caused defeat, which was not inevitable for Pakistan, in the 2nd ODI.
