Pakistan 184 all out v Canada

Is another upset on the cards? Pakistan have been bowled out for 184 by Canada in 43 overs, losing their last four wickets for three runs in 13 deliveries.
In one of those fine World Cup minnow moments, the penultimate wicket was a slip catch by Balaji Rao - who fumbled twice but held on to the ball with his thighs.
So sudden was Pakistan's collapse that the third batting power play was taken with nine wickets already down. Umar Akmal was top scorer with 48.
Can Canada score 185? Their previous best World Cup score is 202 (v West Indies, 2003).
Canada have 16-year-old Nitish Kumar opening the batting.
