Our WC history tell us that...

[Sufi Malang]

in all the three semi-finals that we have won in different world cups (92,99,T20 WC 07), we have batted second and chased down the target. SO guys, i am not sure if batting first is our best bet? :13: :13: (Interesting to note that in all those three occasions, the team we have beaten by chasing down the score is New Zealand :D ).

SO should we go by our strength (i.e batting first) or should we look at history?

Bat first and try to make 145-150 and then hope Gull, Ajmal and Afridi do their job and Amir and Razzaq don't go for too much. We can't chase more than 145 and can't score 170 against SA batting first.
