What a fabulous win for Pakistan. Younis Khan has run out on to the ground with his players to high-five with the two batsmen. Younis turns around to find Woolmer to his left, goes across and hugs him. He even tries to lift him, Woolmer doesn't seem to mind! Waqar Younis is out there as well and huge smiles are plastered over all the Pakistani faces. And why not.
Pakistan usually roar when cornered and that's what they did today. To be fair, Sri Lankan spinners were troubled by the dew and were unable to rip it across. But it was their choice to field second. And that as they say is that.
Razzaq at the post-match talk: " I was under pressure, the situation was tense but thanks to god I managed to do the job."
Captain banned for few matches, the Board president resigned, two players doped out of the tournament and where are Pakistan now? Just 5 runs short of win.
