5 most embarrassing defeats for Pakistan in ODIs

#3 3 wicket loss to Ireland in World Cup group game at Jamaica, 2007

Ireland players celebrate the fall of yet another wicket

This was a loss that is perhaps still deeply embedded into the Pakistan team's conscience since they crashed out of the 2007 World Cup due to their loss to massive underdogs Ireland and the death of their coach Bob Woolmer after the game, further plunged them into turmoil. Ireland put Pakistan in to bat and their seam bowlers, led by Boyd Ranking completely overwhelmed the 1992 World Cup winners.

Before long Pakistan had been reduced to 66 for 5 and in the end, they were dismissed for only 132 in the 46th overs. It was a shocking performance and after a bit of a rain delay, Ireland reached the target in the 42nd over. Pakistan did give them a bit of a scare after having reduced them to 15 for 2 but Ireland seemed to be in control from thereon in and handed the Inzamam-ul-Haq-led team a shattering defeat.
