PAK vs USA, Match 12, Cricket Tips: There is never a dull moment if you are a Pakistani cricket fan. Another example we saw in the game against the Netherlands. Faheem Ashraf's cameo made the difference with the bat and took Pakistan out of scrutiny. Pakistan did win, but they were poor with the tactics and middle-order batting. Can they improve in the next game?
Pakistan are scheduled to face the United States of America on Tuesday at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo at 7 PM IST. This contest will not be easy either. Firstly, the USA have beaten them once, so Pakistan can't take them lightly. Secondly, the USA showed a much-improved performance in their opening game against India. So, they can make this game even more interesting with a good display.
