The Pakistani papers should make interesting reading tomorrow.

That's putting it mildly. Sadly, there will be player's houses egged and effigies burned.

The same will likely occur in India even though they are still not officially out of the tourney. It's a tough ask for them to now qualify though. To have a chance, they must win the next two games. If they do, India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh may all end up with 4 points in their group. One of them then gets knocked out based on net run rate. Sri Lanka is way ahead right now on that basis by virtue of their hammering of Bermuda.

Basically, India is out unless they hammer Bermuda in addition to beating Sri Lanka.

So, no India and no Pakistan in the super 8s is the most likely result. Television's (and my) worst mightmare.

Somewhere in this thread, someone posted that John Davison of Canada *briefly* held the WC record for fastest century. I thought he still held that record. Who broke it?
