Islamabad United (163/8) secure a thrilling victory against Multan Sultans (159/9) by two wickets to claim the PSL 9 championship title

[Rana]

Solid batting wicket

 

[RidiculousMan]

Yasir Khan has been the worst emerging player in this PSL. Absolute passenger.

Probably his last PSL

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Munro is gone down and might be out

 

[Asad T]

David Willey sent at 3

I guess in an attempt to negate imad. But Usman plays spin so well and he has been the batter of the PSL so far. I don't think its the right move

 

[Snowflake]

Wants to dominate from the start. I dont mind that intent, tbh as the ball wasnt swinging. This looks like a 180 pitch

I am all about the approach. I was specifically criticizing that shot. It was an over pitched offside delivery, he sides to hack it to leg!

 

[Savak]

Don't know who is involved in the PSL management but a lot of people need to be fired for the Karachi leg of the tournament. Who made the decision to schedule a final on a Monday?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pretty stupid move if you ask me

 

[adi_62941]

This is a joke. Willey ahead of in form usman. Rizwan has a habit to choke just like babar

 

[Rana]

Willey has a few T20 hundreds

This is a good move, let’s see if it pays off

 

[Deewana Mastana]

PCB call all the shots

 

[emranabbas]

Imam is a clever bowler

 

[Human786]

170 par ?

 

[adi_62941]

PSL will have huge losses in this season

 

[Asad T]

Munro is gone down and might be out

He was already not 100% fit comming into this game. let's hope he's ok

 

[Deewana Mastana]

He was already not 100% fit comming into this game. let's hope he's ok

Yep

 

[CerebralPatriot]

Can people keep their racism out of this thread

Karachi deserves to host the final more than any city period

 

[Rana]

This is a good move I tell you

 

[Deewana Mastana]

2 wickets for Imad in the over

Willey bowled

 

[CerebralPatriot]

Haha captaincy masterstroke from Legwan

Brilliant from the champion Imad

 

[Rana]

Well it didn’t pay off but it wasn’t a bad move

 

[emranabbas]

Don't mess with imad
Wicket after every boundary

 

[Asad T]

I am all about the approach. I was specifically criticizing that shot. It was an over pitched offside delivery, he sides to hack it to leg!

Tbh, that shot has worked for him more often than not, even for balls that are outside off and pitched up

 

[CerebralPatriot]

Imad for Player of the tournament

 

[Rana]

Usman and Charles

Solid players of spin

 

[Deewana Mastana]

This is a good move I tell you

Wasn't that good in the end I guess

 

[Human786]

despite the exaggerated tone , like Danny . Rizzu clicks today ? 15/2 in 13

 

[emranabbas]

Good opening partnership for pakistan
Imad and naseem shah

 

[Asad T]

Can people keep their racism out of this thread

Karachi deserves to host the final more than any city period

it's not about racism bro. I'm from karachi and I agree that it should not be held there.
There is no crowd whatsoever

 

[Rana]

Wasn't that good in the end I guess

Yeah well,

Oh well

 

[topspin]

Imad hitting back again after being hit for a boundary but our expert @PakEngFan will tell you that he's not mentally strong.

 

[Snowflake]

Oh this situation is now tailor made for Riz. He can easily play at a 100 SR now for the next 15 overs

 

[Rana]

You can see Imad Wasim threat is in their heads

 

[FearlessRoar]

4 . W . 6 W

Imad Wasim removes Yasir Khan and David Willey in one over.

 

[Asad T]

despite the exaggerated tone , like Danny . Rizzu clicks today ? 15/2 in 13

Yeah, he's hilarious and has some of the best 1 liners

 

[FearlessRoar]

What was the reason to promote David Willey to number 3?

Rizwan things

 

[Rana]

Micheal Clarke: Does Rizwan play his natural game or pull himself back here?

Dude, Rizwan takes 15 balls to get going. He hits a six and 4, then starts accumulating again

 

[Human786]

18/2 in 3

 

[Rana]

This is the match here, Imad v Usman

Usman is a killer of spin

 

[CerebralPatriot]

What was the reason to promote David Willey to number 3?

Rizwan things

Sometimes cramp sometimes acting never thinking

 

[Rana]

Drinks break in 3 overs

 

[Snowflake]

So annoying that they would just show ball speed on certain random deliveries and forget for others.

 

[Human786]

IU Win today ...

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Can someone count number of spectators in stadium? Can't believe this is final.

 

[Human786]

Drinks break in 3 overs

Tapal Tea

 

[Asad T]

Drinks break in 3 overs

Only because Usman has hurt his arm.

Rizwan's leg x usman's arm

 

[Rana]

Tbf Multan haven’t lost any of their key wickets yet

 

[Asad T]

IU Win today ...

Urooj was saying that it's sold out lollll

 

[Human786]

Can someone count number of spectators in stadium? Can't believe this is final.

does look sad - yesterday WPL final was sold out with 23k spectators !

 

[CerebralPatriot]

The only one who can win it for Multan is Karachi boy Usman

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Lovely shot Usman

 

[topspin]

Shot Usman

 

[Rana]

Solid over by Imad again

 

[Human786]

Tbf Multan haven’t lost any of their key wickets yet

you aziz Rizzu is looking dangerous . 24/2 in 4

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Smashed 4

Hunain to Rizzy

 

[topspin]

Solid over by Imad again

He's shown a different side of his bowling today. When he's in attack mode, he can get wickets.

 

[Human786]

Hunnu after conceding few 4's will nail 1

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Back to back 4's

 

[CerebralPatriot]

If Rizwan is hitting it on the off side than this pitch must be a 220+ one

 

[AAli98]

Pak greatest w/k batsman turning it on

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Ubaid and Hunain need proper technical coaching

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

does look sad - yesterday WPL final was sold out with 23k spectators !

A random league match of the Tamil Nadu Premier League boasts a full house, not to mention the grandeur of the WIPL Final.

 

[Human786]

41/2 in 5

 

[Rana]

If Rizwan is hitting it on the off side than this pitch must be a 220+ one

Bro it’s Hunain Shah. He’s not really a bowler

 

[Deewana Mastana]

That's the last of hunain for today

 

[Rana]

What a rubbish over

Expect Hunain to drop a catch as well in this game

 

[Deewana Mastana]

His first and last over basically

He's like Musa similar height and bowling

 

[Asad T]

Usman looks so good, he has his eye in now. IU should be scared

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Rizzy on fyah

He's smashing it to all parts

 

[Rana]

Some rubbish bowlers and rubbish bowling by IU

They only really have Imad, Naseem and Shadab that can bowl for them

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pretty crappy bowling so far by IU

 

[Asad T]

Faheem to Rizwan, this is Riz's chance to hit his 6 to bring his sr to 130, and then chill

 

[Human786]

how good is 175 ?

 

[Asad T]

Some rubbish bowlers and rubbish bowling by IU

They only really have Imad, Naseem and Shadab that can bowl for them

I liked Mccoy as well, but he got injured at the last moment

 

[Rana]

Decent over by Faheem actually

Recovered well

 

[Human786]

I get worried when I see Azam running around with his 120 odd kg btw ....

 

[Rana]

Bizarre captaincy by Shadab

He should be bowling NOW!!

 

[Asad T]

how good is 175 ?

tbh, i don't think its enough.
no swing, not really much spin and IU bat deep
I think 185 is par

 

[Asad T]

I get worried when I see Azam running around with his 120 odd kg btw ....

I want to see him do the Osaka run challenge

 

[Asad T]

Bizarre captaincy by Shadab

He should be bowling NOW!!

I wonder if it's just a match-up situation. Riz and Usman seem to take a liking to spin

 

[Rana]

Pressure is on them. It doesn’t matter if he goes for few but he can prize out one of these two
