Batting first, Pakistan Terroristan scored a rather low 184-10.

Canada is batting now.

The match is being played at the Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.

We hope Terroristan bites the dust but we don’t think it’ll happen. Here’s hoping for the best.

Canada Batting

* 11:18AM – Pakistan was defending a low score and Canada had a good chance at one time. After 32 overs, Canada was 98-3 and had a solid chance of victory. Then they blew it.

The wickets started tumbling in quick succession thanks in part to superb bowling by Terroristan Captain Shahid Afridi who ended with an admirable 5-23. Great Job, Afridi.

The remaining seven wickets fell for a mere 40 runs. But the writing was on the wall after Zubin Surkari (27) and Jimmy Hansra (43) got out. Canada was just going through the motions of batting after the dismissal of Surkari and Hansra.

Canada could have created history today and they didn’t. What a shame!
