Islamabad United [151/7] fight back to defeat Multan Sultans [150/8] by 7 wickets

[Titan24]

Afridi still can take the top T20 batsmen of the world out. What a player

 

[Smbhayi]

Alex Hales just needs to keep on going. It will kill the game off.

Clean bowled by afridi

 

[Extra_Cover]

Oh lord, Asif Ali looks so unfit. Heading down Sharjeel's way?

 

[Titan24]

IU in bit of a trouble here

 

[Smbhayi]

Afridi still can take the top T20 batsmen of the world out. What a player

Bowler you mean.. despite playing 300+ games he has economy rate under 7..

 

[Major]

why is asid ali here to bat?

 

[Kroll]

Who said no stars, Buttler is here

 

[Extra_Cover]

With Talat and Iftikhar and play and miss Asif Ali, Isb is very reliant on Hales at top and Faheem lower in the innings.

 

[Titan24]

he will do well here , no quality bowler here

His average and SR even in PSL is not great. I think his average in PSL is probably poor than international T20s if I am not wrong. For majority of young Pak batsmen its their own mindset which causes more trouble for them at a big stage than the quality of opposition

 

[Kroll]

Bowler you mean.. despite playing 300+ games he has economy rate under 7..

Thats what he said, he can still take them out as a bowler.

 

[OldWarHorse]

Tough for young Usman to get in if Afridi keeps doing that.

 

[Justcrazy]

Multan needs to take wickets at regular intervals here

 

[NauV]

This Multan team won't do much with that bowling attack . . Afridi is probably the only guy in the team of any substance (and he is 40+) . . Tanvir is way past his best . . they need to fit Imran Tahir and perhaps also Usman Qadir in that team . . the 2 new bowlers won't do much either . .

 

[Titan24]

Bowler you mean.. despite playing 300+ games he has economy rate under 7..

No, I meant he can still take wickets of top T20 batsmen. Extraordinary economy.

 

[Smbhayi]

Only Rashid Khan and Narine has better economy than Afridi in most wickets list..

 

[Kroll]

Rameez guffawing away at Rashid Khan's age

Needs to watch his mouth as hes playing this PSL.

 

[Justcrazy]

91 from 72 balls .... Wickets are crucial here

 

[Mueez]

Man Afridi hasn’t changed a bit.

Legend.

 

[Birdman]

Scientists need to do some study on Afridi to find the secret to fountain of youth. This guy looks the same since the 90's, amazing.

 

[Rana]

Great shot under pressure

 

[Titan24]

Bowler you mean.. despite playing 300+ games he has economy rate under 7..

Oh if you are referring to me saying what a player then yes what a bowler is better.

 

[Justcrazy]

SIXXX

Afridi smashed here

 

[Smbhayi]

Lol how's that gone for six,

 

[Justcrazy]

Multan needs more wickets here to halt the chase.

 

[LeedsGreen]

even with talat and asif ali at the crease ... this feels a much higher quality game than the one we saw earlier

 

[Titan24]

Talat is under pressure here, not rotating the strike well. 8 off 11 currently.

 

[Rana]

So Asif Butler’s front foot always facing towards cover. Not sure he gets a correct shift of balance, that too for a power hitter apparently

 

[Mueez]

Good to see Qadir sitting next to Imran Tahir.

Hopefully Tahir shares his knowledge with him.

 

[Firebat]

Required rate creeping up with these 2 at the crease

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Muhammad Umar seems more like a FC/test bowler.

 

[Rana]

If Asif Butler can’t smash this guy, what business does he have at this level?

 

[NauV]

This guy bowls a bit like Steven Finn

 

[Rana]

Epic Review by Rizwan

I believe his mind is on Mars just like the NASA space shuttle is

 

[Titan24]

Afridi as animated as ever while sharing his thoughts with a young bowler

 

[Smbhayi]

That's poor review by Rizwan..

 

[Justcrazy]

Excellent decision by Ahsan Raza , there was a big big appeal

 

[Rana]

Butler giving catching practice

Carrying on from where he left off against South Africa

 

[Kroll]

Required rate creeping up with these 2 at the crease

They just need to relax, should be an easy chase, can't possibly go any slower than MS during the second half of their inns.

 

[Smbhayi]

2nd wicket for Afridi..

 

[Justcrazy]

OUT

Afridi strikes !

 

[Titan24]

Good to see Qadir sitting next to Imran Tahir.

Hopefully Tahir shares his knowledge with him.

As per him he learned a lot from Tahir during last season as well. Young players should definitely make maximum use of such opportunities.

 

[Omer2002]

Asif ali.will.never.learn...the batting islamabad has i still expect them to win

 

[Kroll]

Buttler, what you doing man?

 

[OldWarHorse]

Asif Ali and Ifthikar back to back. Guess there arent many IU fans here

 

[Rana]

Danny Morrison not sure if Iftikhar is 30

 

[Justcrazy]

Lahore still has Faheem Ashraf and Georgy to come , lot of hitting options , along with Hassan Ali

 

[Audrey500]

“He says he’s 30 these days” hahaha highlight if the PSL

 

[imshally81]

What a direct hit...

 

[Rana]

Afridi winning this game singlehandedly

 

[Titan24]

Talat and Iftikhar in similar situation where they have been messing it up for Pak and looks like they have messed up again

 

[Justcrazy]

OUT

Afridi on fire here

 

[Smbhayi]

Direct hit by Afridi, and out by miles..

 

[Major]

hussain talat u idiot

 

[Major]

match over

 

[OldWarHorse]

Too many bits and pieces cricketers..falling like nine pins now

 

[Titan24]

Lol!

 

[Smbhayi]

Another wicket gone..

 

[TeymurBlake]

Islamabad United's best player is coming in at No.8.

 

[Justcrazy]

OUT

sixth wicket down for Islamabad

 

[Titan24]

Talat did Azam khan here. Got his partner run out and then got himself out

 

[Titan24]

Botha looking depressed

 

[Rana]

Lewis Gregory and Faheem Ashraf batting after

Shadab
Talat
Iftikhar
Asif

 

[Kroll]

Lord Faheem to the rescue?

 

[Justcrazy]

73 from 48 balls , Faheem and Hassan Ali still to come .

 

[Ahmed216]

Botha looking depressed

Local batting talent is indeed very depressing

 

[Rana]

Gregory, Faheem and Hassan can all get these runs

 

[Extra_Cover]

With Talat and Iftikhar and play and miss Asif Ali, Isb is very reliant on Hales at top and Faheem lower in the innings.

Its either Hales or Faheem for Isb in this tournament. Their middle order is full of has beens.

 

[Titan24]

Local batting talent is indeed very depressing

True. Need to scout some batsmen like Pak coaches love doing incase of pacers

 

[Titan24]

73 from 48 balls , Faheem and Hassan Ali still to come .

Mohammad Wasim Jnr is a decent hitter as well.

 

[Rana]

Getting 50 in the last 5 overs may not be hard. Just need to hang in there instead of gifting them wickets like Shadab, Iftikhar and Asif did

 

[Titan24]

Faheem should bat in top 6 atleast in my opinion considering his form in recent times.

 

[Justcrazy]

Faheem is the one who can win it for Islamabad here

 

[Rana]

Faheem is the one who can win it for Islamabad here

Gregory and Hassan also

Once Afridi bowls out it’s game on

 

[Smbhayi]

So Afridi is done and me too.. btw that head&shoulder move is cringe-worthy

 

[TeymurBlake]

Local batting talent has been woeful for quite some time. Yet Faheem has had a few batting sessions with Yousuf and his career has been completely revived

 

[Rafa]

Faheem will spoil the party for MS

 

[TeymurBlake]

Faheem should not be coming in at No.8 and for me he should come in No.5 at least.

 

[moghul]

This Head & shoulder ads are so annoying, I have been using it since my childhood till now but feel like stop using it now ����

 

[Kroll]

Faheem can be a floater, depending on the situation.

 

[Kroll]

So Afridi is done and me too.. btw that head&shoulder move is cringe-worthy

Wouldn't be PSL if it wasn't.
