Balochistan

First XI – Haris Sohail (captain), Bismillah Khan (vice-captain, wicketkeeper), Akbar-ur-Rehman, Akif Javed, Ammad Butt, Awais Zia, Imam-ul-Haq, Imran Butt, Imran Farhat, Kashif Bhatti, Khurram Shahzad, Taimur Khan, Umaid Asif, Umar Gul, Usama Mir and Yasir Shah

Sindh

First XI – Sarfaraz Ahmed (captain, wicketkeeper), Saud Shakeel (vice-captain), Ahsan Ali, Anwar Ali, Asad Shafiq, Azam Khan, Danish Aziz, Ghulam Mudassir, Hassan Khan, Khurram Manzoor, Mir Hamza, Mohammad Asghar, Mohammad Hasnain, Mohammad Taha, Sharjeel Khan and Sohail Khan.
 
I am looking forward to seeing Imran Butt, Ammad Butt, Saud Shakil, and Azam Khan.

Sindh should win this match comfortably. My lineup:

1. Sharjeel Khan
2. Khurram Manzoor
3. Ahsan Ali
4. Saud Shakeel (vc)
5. Azam Khan
6. Sarfaraz Ahmed (c) (wk)
7. Anwar Ali
8. Sohail Khan
9. Mohammad Hasnain
10. Mir Hamza
11. Mohammad Asghar

Unfortunately I am very sure Asad Shafiq will play and Sarfaraz will promote himself up the order, which means Azam won’t get a chance even if he plays and Saud Shakil will barely face any deliveries on a batting belter.
 
Looking forward to seeing how Akif Javed fares this season.
 
Balochistan won the toss and batting first

Can anyone tell me does PTV sports become paid channel and not free anymore? There is no signal of PTV sports till now.
 
right apparently there should be an official delayed live stream for overseas viewers any idea where that is
 
Since yesterday official PTV sports stream has been taken down i have a feeling somebody hacked into it not sure though but there is no stream there anymore
 
Asad Shafiq in T20!!!!!! PCB will never learn. The guy was super flopped last year PSL and still gets selected.
 
pthatic as always for sindh.... its such a shame to see that the idiots in sindh management r persistent with asad shafiq and khurram manzoor...

Asad Shafiq is the most useless player one can imagine and needs 3/4 drop catches to score anything substainal

Khurram Manoor is all time blind tulla slogger wayyyyy past his expirey date.. no shame

So it will not be free like before?
 
Is there any live score at least? Or even that's not available
 
Sarfraz is really something!!!. He is using Shafiq as a front line bowler.
 
I think Misbah might bring Shafiq in the name of experience against Zimbabwe T20 and ODIs
 
Those of you who are watching, How is it looking like?

Another 200 game?

Also if someone could post score updates as cricinfo is not and never will until 6 hours after the match has finished.

You can watch on youtube!!!!!
Just search youtube national t20 cup pakistan 2020 live
Picture quality still poor!!!
 
PCB is streaming it live on youtube. Channel name is Pakistan Cricket.
 
Its no way 720P!!!!! More likely 240. Picture quality is better than before but very long way to go.
 
Nothing coming up

PCB's official youtube channel is showing the match (albeit delayed).
 
Bismillah Khan while technically isnt that sound but is a good hitter of the ball as he showed in PSL as well in one of the innings.
 
Bismillah with 50, got two in last year’s National T20 as well.
 
Please only discuss game here, streams etc not to be discussed
 
Imran farhat is just awful.

Playing him at no 6 doesnt make sense as well. It would have been better to try a youngster like Taimur Khan at that position. Also not sure why he had to get selected over Sami Aslam. To give someone a farewell you have to keep on playing him as well.

Tbh the whole team looks like a average team no big hitters at all some are playing out of position to

Agreed. No idea why he's playing. Waste of a spot along wih umaid asif.
 
Camerawork is abysmal to say the least to go with the graphics as well.

Can not spot the ball at all.
 
Awful is an understatement lol the whole team is average

I was being kind calling him awful. Agreed both of these teams are awful for t20 bar sharjeel.

The likes of imam, saud and haris are good players bit not t20. The rest well...
 
Did Asad Shafiq really bowl the first over? I couldn't digest the fact that he is in the squad in the first place...
 
I thought Taimur Khan was this guy:

http://www.pcboard.com.pk/Pakistan/Players/116/116911/116911.html

Numbers don't seem very impressive.

Actually there are three, I am not sure which one is in the the Bal squad.

One is this 24 year old WK batsman I think which was probably also selected in PSL by PZ but never got a game.
http://m.espncricinfo.com/pakistan/content/player/935889.html

His numbers aren’t great as well.

There is also another U19 guy from Swat but I doubt he is this guy as he hasnt played even much U19 cricket.

The Sindh first XI is the most boring team in this competition. Two or three of the youngsters in the second XI could've easily been in the first (especially Omair Yousuf and Hasan Mohsin).
 
Top delivery from Amad. Came back into Shakeel
 
Whenever I watch live cricket on PTV, I feel that I have some issues with my eyesight.......
 
Always backed amad over faheem. Much better batting defence then faheem.

Same here. If Amad had gotten the same chances that Faheem did, we would have had an actual allrounder rather than the pseudo one that Faheem is.

Hes bowling great today. That delivery to Saud and the first ball he bowled to Azam Khan were excellent.
 
Excellent pressure building tactics from Balochistan. Good captaincy from Haris and bowlers Butt really responding well.
 
I am worry that Misbah might brought Kamran, Shafiq in ODI and T20 in the name of experience against Zimbabwe. Because he is already complaining about too young players in the team.

Yes defo hassan mohsin should defo be thier hopefully they come last

He should have been given a chance ahead of fahim even yamin is bette than fahim
 
Unlike what some say I think Usama at the moment is no way better than Shadab in any capacity. He has potential but, Shadab is much better currently I think. Usman Qadir though was impressive yesterday and did well in national t20 last year too, he needs to play 4 day games and perform to develop his game further and Usama needs the same.

Still early in the tournament but Usama will need to do much more as a bowler.

Do you think he will recall Gul, S Tanvir, M Irfan, Sohail back to the ODI squad vs Zimbabwe?
 
Top stuff from Akif Javed under pressure, possibly game changing over
 
Sohail K can play for Pak in T20s just as batman lol. Better than Faheem, Iftikhar and Asif Ali.

They reached the final last year, proved to be more than the sum of their parts.
 
Sohail Khan became overconfident, I think he should have taken the single on the second last ball and Hassan Khan was no mug with the bat. Then a single on the last ball would have meant a tie and double would have meant win for Sindh.

Balochistan deserved to win, they played really good cricket overall.

Great game.

Excellent game of cricket evenly matched teams
Excellent bowling from young akif baring the 5 wides
 
Overall he bowled well under pressure abit of inexperienced showed

True, bowled the second last over really well overall. Sindh had the momentum from Amad's over but he brought his team back.
