Easy 8 wickets win for Pakistan as they have kept their slim chances of making it to the finals. The chase was marshalled by Butt (36) and Jamshed (53) who tore apart the Indian bowling. Jamshed was retired hurt but the platform which the openers laid was good enough for Younus (123) and Misbah (70) who sailed Pakistan to victory. They both shared a 144 runs partnership to register their first win in the second stage of the Asia Cup. Chawla was the only bowler who was in the wickets list. He bowled Yousuf round his legs for 21. Younus was the Man of the Match for his mesmerising innings. All eyes will be on tomorrow's match where India take on Sri Lanka in their final second stage match. If India win they are through to the Finals to set up a date with Sri Lanka in the finals. If they lose to Sri Lanka and Pakistan beat Bangladesh the final calculation will be done on the Net run rate, on which India have an edge over Pakistan. Thank you for being with us throughout the coverage of the match and make sure to tune in tomorrow for our coverage of the crucial match.
