What will be the outcome of second Indo-Pak ODI ?
Akhtar will play.

This will strengthen Pak bowling.
However, with both teams' batting abilities nearly equal ,the real difference is there in the bowling and the genius Asif is making things happen even on dead tracks.
I think Pakistan are the favourites in the second ODI.

two teams have equal strength with India having a slight edge in paper. Pak is having home field advantage and playing more as a team but they also have more pressure in order to perform better.
With this it is hard to predict, I would leave at that...
Predictions provide fuel to look down upon others.

inshallah pak should pull this one out...i hope akhtar plays but if not sami should...he's still not that bad in ODI's...bharati's have tried everything including scoring in excess of 315 but can't win...they're a down and out bunch right now...lets hope it remains that way...the batsmen look in great touch and the indian bowling is...well...indian bowling...

The pakis have a batting lineup that looks stronger than the indian one...mostly because of their non-existant tail..the pakis are batting really deep these days..not good for the indians...
and akhtar's not playing according to latest reports from cricinfo...
I hope India wins the series..

I am glad that I was proved wrong.
This is Cricket. But I think Inzamam's decision to choose to bat first was a very poor one. Was woolmar a party to it?

As you mentioned- this is cricket- the team playing better on that day wins. in this case it was india. no excuses but they played better than Pakistan.
Congrats to Dravid & co.
Nothing against Inzi or Woolmer, on pitches such as these, it doesn't matter who wins the toss since bowlers won't get any assistance. It depends who bats well on that day. And thats just how ODI is designed these days. Demoralising for the bowlers.
But i'm glad that there is some interest in the series, now that it is 1-1.

Since I have been accused of Pakistan bashing, your kind attention is drawn to the initial post of this thread, originated by me.
News sources say that Dravid surprised by Inzi's decision.

so much was made of Inzi's OTF dismissal............now why isn't anyone talking about dravid's decission not to appeal for Malik's dismissal (in OTF fashion as well )!
