Waqar not worried about the quarter final
ByPakistan may have qualified for the knockout stages of the World Cup for the first time since 1999 but their coach Waqar Younis is not prepared to look beyond their final group game against Australia just yet. Pakistan slipped to second place in Group A after a seven-wicket win over Zimbabwe in Pallekele on Monday, but could still finish in any of the top four positions depending on what happens against Australia, and in other games.
Waqar said he is not worried about the team that Pakistan will face in the quarter right now he is concentrating on the next match with Australia.
Barring a shock loss to Canada, Australia will go into Saturday’s game on a 34-match unbeaten streak in the World Cup, stretching back to the 1999 tournament. Their last loss, in fact, came against Pakistan, at Headingley. Ricky Ponting’s team is the only unbeaten side in this tournament.
