Man, Umar Akmal looks unbelievably out of shape. Just hit Abdul Razzaq for 15 in an over

very nice inning by imam should be back for nz test and odi

Everybody is a hero in Pakistan domestics, but a zero in internationals.

So Umar Akmal couldn't play a big innings and Imran Farhat ran out the set batsman (Following from cricinfo) and now it seems HBL may get restricted around 300 or less.

HBL finished 321/8 in their allotted 50 overs. Jamal Anwar scored 88 off 111 balls and Imam made 85 off 93 balls and a late order contribution from Zohaib Khan 37 off 20 balls helped HBL to post a challenging total on the board.

What is point to play players like Razzaq, Rehman, Gul and Farhat??

Looks very good. Never heard of him before ,plus he's 20.

Good sign that he's performing on the big stage. It's a semi-final, televised, and he's chasing. Umar Gul taken himself out of the attack now

Losing patience now, needs to calm down. Dropped by Imam and Gul in the same over... get a hundred lad and chase this down.

Almost caught on 99 but HBL's fielders don't look likely to hold on to any today... Hundred off 61 balls. Way too many aerial shots. It was OK in the powerplay but needs to play more grounded shots and percentage cricket in the middle overs...

Another wild hoick and gone this time.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Zohaib should be captain of HBL. Plus he is unlucky not to play for Pak. He is a better left arm spinner and all rounder than Imad, Nawaz etc etc Unfortunately now a bit old.

 

[Suleiman]

Lol Gul is still alive and kicking, good for him. I thought he had quit.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Lol 4th dropped catch.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

The commentators on right now are surprisingly good Hasan Cheema and Nabeel Hashmi.

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Big hits from Mohammad Irfan (leggie). Why is this guy not in the team?

 

[RehanG]

Umar Gull should retire such a useless bowlers nowdays.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Best televised Pak domestic one day match i have seen. Fantastic match!

Great video quality aswell.

 

[Abdullah719]

PTV choking towards the end, but good effort. Like the look of the side and the emphasis on promoting some youngsters.

Amad has bowled well for HBL.

 

[hadi123]

What a great match!

 

[Monsee]

LOL, when Pakistanis complain a certain cricket site is too India centric, all non-paid BCCI lawyers tell us it is not so and we are spinning conspiracy theories...if one looks up current domestic tournaments (ongoing, HBL vs PTV match is still not over), even Nepal (for God's sake who follows them at the moment) has a link for their domestic ongoing tournament but guess which one is not on the list?

Waiting to hear back from the free lawyers now

 

[Monsee]

HBL won BTW!

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Awesome by Amad!

If they can have such matches in HD Pak cricket fans will definitely follow them. Players will play with more motivation to make a case for themselves as matches are televised and fans are watching.

 

[Bewal Express]

Were any selectors there?

Certainly. If only PTV sports could improve their telecast as well.

I saw him bowl a few days ago and although he wasn’t great, there was something to work with. His action was similar to Richard Johnson- ex Middlesex Fast bowler.

 

[Veteran]

Surprised to see Muhammad Waqas name on both team rosters.
