Pakistan can still qualify for the World Cup semis - Wasim Akram has an idea

Pakistan are virtually out of the race to qualify for the World Cup semi-finals, needing to beat England by 287 runs in their final league game. However, Wasim Akram has a plan for victory that might be simpler to achieve. On "The Pavilion", a talk show on A Sports, a Pakistan-based sports TV channel, he told the other panelists off camera (although on the air he doesn't seem to recall his own idea) that Pakistan should bat first, get to their total and then lock England in their dressing room for 20 minutes to make sure all their batters get timed out! It's not a totally unworkable idea... is it?
