Just strike rotation and the odd boundary. But in that period, we had too many dot balls. Can&#8217;t expect much from tail-enders.\u201d<br \/>Babar had a contrarian view on the surface, differing from many who felt the ball wasn&#8217;t coming onto the bat.<br \/>\u201cPitch looked decent. The ball was coming on nicely. It was a little bit slow, and some balls had extra bounce.\u201d<br \/>For Pakistan to progress to the <!-- -->Super Eight stage<!-- -->, they&#8217;ll need to secure convincing victories against Canada and <!-- -->Ireland<!-- --> while also hoping that the USA doesn&#8217;t defeat either Ireland or India.<br \/>\u201cHave to win the last two matches.
