Can anyone stop Islamabad United from winning the PSL?

[hadi123]

They look to have all bases covered.

Amazing batsmen; Ronchi is in the form of his life, Duminy has a lot of experience and the likes of Asif Ali + Hussain Talat have been finds of the tournament.

Good all rounders in the likes of Samit Patel and Shadab Khan

Good spinners and good seamers

They look like the team to beat. Can KK/PZ/QG stop them?

 

[Plumb]

Its only about getting Ronchi and Hales wicket if any team can get them out cheaply, they have a chance.

 

[babajee]

Only if Misbah makes a “recovery” or by fluke.

 

[JattMaula]

in Karachi!

 

[Syed1]

Fully expect Misbah to return and destroy the team's combination and chances.

 

[DRsohail]

No he is out for the rest of PSL.Bad news for KK or zalmi as Friends eleven is already out wth those friends playing.

 

[Big Mac]

You know the answer

 

[j_kazmi]

You know the answer

Rahat the destroyer, the one and only.

Nobody will stop Zalmi from retaining. Kakmal will play another match winning knock in the final.

 

[KingKhanWC]

The batting looks too strong for the rest to cope with. Of course on any given day things can go wrong but they are playing a very smart brand of cricket. Duminy to anchor the innings while the rest come in an attack pretty much every ball they face. Even if they have a bad day with the bat in the final, they will still cross 150 due to the depth of batting. Their bowling then is good enough to defend such a score.

Just give them the trophy now

 

[backfootpunch]

No Misbah as well - given his performances, Islamabad batting liabilities have been reduced by one and that's fact!

 

[Hasan123]

Anything can happen in 1 off games. Don't want to get too confident yet. We are the favourties but we still need to turn up in the last game.

 

[srh]

Quetta had the best chance if their good foreign players have agreed to play in Pakistan and Sarfraz had selected the local players on merit instead of friendship

 

[Plumb]

Nobody will stop Zalmi from retaining. Kakmal will play another match winning knock in the final.

Kami to get a


To match his International consistency.

Haha inshallah you'll be proven wrong . Zalmi will stand up and perform till they get their hands on that trophy yet again!

 

[moghul]

Only way you can beat them if Misbah plays in middle order and stays at the wicket for 5 overs.

Good to know every Indian batsmen's legs tremble when playing Pak bowlers, don't understand what happens in WC matches?

Someone let this guy in on the Rahat joke

Rahat is the new chuck norris of Pak cricket

 

[Chief Destroyer]

If it's a true pitch, they will dominate.

Number of runs Kohli has scored against the Rahat in all formats: 0

 

[Suleiman]

Karachi Kings will stop them. We gave them some false hope by letting 37 year old Ronchi (graduated a year after Misbah) get some halwa runs and bring them back to reality at National Stadium. Burger united doesn't stand a chance.

 

[kuskash]

Number of runs Kohli has scored against the Rahat in all formats: 0

Number of times Rahat took wicket of Kohli: Zero (no need to tremble)

 

[Madplayer]

Dean Jones has done a terrific job really. He needs to be given credit for developing a great team with consistent selections over the previous 3 seasons.

 

[HuzaifaE]

The trophy is ours now

 

[UN talkz]

was the only guy who could have stopped them but unfortunately Mir Hamza played a spoilsport.
It's going to be IU now

 

[LordJames]

Zalmi

 

[Hermoine Green]

Nobody will stop Zalmi from retaining. Kakmal will play another match winning knock in the final.

And here we come.

Kings slayed successfully, now its time to dismantle the united.

 

[world cup captain]

Peshawar has a good bowling line up but I'm sure we will beat them with ease. Obviously today, I wanted Karachi to win because we would have walked all over them but I guess the final will be a bit closer.

 

[big_gamer007]

Kamran Akmal can..

 

[Hamza_]

Sahibzada Farhan to smash a ton in the final.

United we win.

 

[moghul]

I'm supporting Zami and Misbah is my only hope, hope he plays his typical "test" inning on Sunday for IU.

 

[Hamza_]

[MENTION=141839]moghul[/MENTION] Misbah fractured his hand.

 

[moghul]

[MENTION=141839]moghul[/MENTION] Misbah fractured his hand.

Oh---I'm heart broken, wanted him to play so badly.

 

[Greenstorm]

And here we come.

Kings slayed successfully, now its time to dismantle the united.

Sami will take care of your one man army. Expecting a one sided game. United to win.

Sarfraz played spoil sport by leaving the Rahat until #11.

 

[rhony]

Don't bet against Sammy. Dude's the luckiest cricketer ever!!!

 

[reversehook]

Obv answer would be God.... then the zalmi's.... but Mibah can do it too if he chooses to play and promotes himself to save the match... but other than that, it should be one heck of a game... both teams are red hot...

 

[j_kazmi]

If Zalmi can somehow draft in Rahat The Destroyer then I’m afraid Peshawar don’t stand a chance

With Sami The Steamroller charging in for Islamabad, Peshawar’s batsmen will have to be at their best.

 

[srh]

get Kami out quickly and its an easy win for IU

 

[MSN]

Karachi Kings will stop them. We gave them some false hope by letting 37 year old Ronchi (graduated a year after Misbah) get some halwa runs and bring them back to reality at National Stadium. Burger united doesn't stand a chance.

A day passed and gutka kings are nowhere to be seen

 

[Fahdi]

Lahore pitches didn't offer the same amount of turn as UAE and we are short on Fast bowlers, if Karachi is similar it will be troublesome. Really missing Raees . Faheem has done well throughout but he isn't a front line seamer by any means. We are going to have to rely on Sami to do the job.

 

[Plumb]

Supporting IU. I really can't see Hafeez/Wahab/Kami on the winning side.

Wishing Hasan to do well but hoping IU to lift the trophy...

 

[TeamPak95]

A nail-biting game in which Islamabad are 9 down and need 6 off the last ball to win and Hussain Talat hitting the ball to the moon to win the final is what I want. That will, without a doubt, officially, comprehensively, in grand, epic fashion, book his place in Pakistan XI by a country mile (although truth be told I think he'll make it anyway).

 

[dauntless]

And here we come. Islamabad is going to receive epic phainty in the final. Kami bhai to score another century and wahab and hasan to destroy their strong batting lineup.

 

[maddgenius]

No chance for Zalmi. Their batting is totally dependent on Kami and he's bound to fail
