Pakistan were all out for 132 against Ireland. They were all out for 132 against Australia too, in the 1999 World Cup Final. The latter match has been proved to be fixed by some Pakistani cricketers - so perhaps this game was fixed too?

in every sport which makes money ..every big time game is pre-fixed..its like movie direction to make things more intersting or to steal money from our pockets..in 1998 i was very much disapointed when indian team got under the lens for match fixing and i stop seeing any cricket for three years..but then i thought what the heck..i will watch the game like i am watching the movie..just for the love of the game..
thats why i watch all matches free of cost..at http://www.heilcf2.com wheather its fixed or not..i am not giving them a penny out of my pocket..

I beg to disagree. Cricket is a game of uncertainties and Pakistan is perhaps the most mercurial team in world cricket.
Despite the fact that a team may appear stronger on paper, it is the performance on that particular day that matters in deciding the outcome of the game.
Pakistan had a horrid day out in the middle while Ireland played out of their skins.
One cannot jump to conclusions based on one-off results, when there is no direct evidence pointing in this very direction.
BTW : The claim that the 99 WC finals was fixed is also one based on rumours without evidence to back it.

nope.
cause ireland play very very well therefore they win we can't say that match was fixed pakistan play very very poor they always do like this. i'm pakistani too but i always speak truth.
now pakistan team is end and inshallal they will lose their every match and they won't qualify for twenty20 world quarter final cause they're on end even bangladesh and ireland are better than pakistan. and they prove in worldcup 2007 everybody see.

no, ireland played better, also ive heard rumors that pakistan team stayed up all night praying before the game and only few players got decent sleep... and that is why some of the players couldnt perform. im not sure how true that rumor is but with inzi behind the helm , i wouldnt doubt it.

There ois no suspicision of any match fixing from any quarter. The team which played on that particular day won the match.

Yes i think that game was definitely fixed, they gave up too easily.

i also thought like it earlier but when i saw that england had to struggle to beat ireland, i realized that it was not fixed and ireland won due to its merits and capabilities
