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

[CerebralPatriot]

When did Babar mess with imad, has I missed something?

1. Both the Pindi and Karachi crowd where chanting his name infront of Imad
2. Check Madi's instagram and the comments he is receiving
3. Babar was the one to kick him out of the team in 2021 just to bring his match winner Parchi Nawaz

 

[Deewana Mastana]

The calculation and body movement they make while making these stops clearly shows they practice and take their fielding as seriously as their batting or bowling.

They're serious about the sport they're not just into it for the monetary reasons.

 

[Asad T]

Who would have thought that happy heart would have played the most finals

 

[RidiculousMan]

Shaddy making a mistake here bowling out Mills

He needed to save his 2 overs for the last 5

It's a 50-50. Islamabad needs wicket of Usman.

 

[Rana]

I agree but perhaps he's going for the kill?

Not really bro

MS have tonkers at the end

Jordan and Ifti will give it a whack to Faheem and Hunain

 

[Justcrazy]

Sultan need big hits here

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Usman on 48 now

 

[Rana]

Stay strong Shaddy

Back yourself boy

 

[Justcrazy]

100 up , but need some big overs

 

[Human786]

101/4 in 14

 

[160KPH]

Unfortunately missed the beginning of the match.. IU looking really good but maybe Usman Khan can save MS here

 

[emranabbas]

9 off 4 is just pathetic

 

[Deewana Mastana]

50 off 36 Usman Khan

 

[Justcrazy]

IU are in control here

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why did they even play Khushdil

 

[Justcrazy]

Khushdil is playing rubbish , needs to improve strike rate

 

[Human786]

Does Aamir Sohail chew his words or is it me imagining ... 105/4 in 15.3

 

[Rana]

What has happened to this guy Khushdil?

Getting picked for Pakistan destroys these guys game

 

[Asad T]

Got smacked on the arm, had issues against the short ball but bounced back and has led the MS fightback. This lad has true gritt and ability

 

[Ali T]

I feel like MS's bowling's quite weak. Think they'll need a strong finish to stand a chance.

 

[Rana]

Faheem bruv

Don’t bowl short to him. Your not that guy

 

[Mrhandsome]

Usman Khan is so strong mentally. We need guys like this

 

[160KPH]

I feel like MS's bowling's quite weak. Think they'll need a strong finish to stand a chance.

The bowling is weak on paper but the team is very effective at getting the most out of the bowling attack

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Faheem such a poor bowler

33-0 off 3 overs

 

[Rana]

Urooj Bruv

Stop panicking

Bringing Naseem in now will mean Hunain has to bowl in the last 4

 

[Human786]

Naseem ko lao solar system le jao 114/4 in 15

 

[Ahmed216]

Excellent player this Usman. Very difficult to bowl to because he's unorthodox in style. Picks the gaps beautifully and hangs in during tough periods to play a proper knock. Too bad he had to leave the country

 

[Mrhandsome]

Khushdil could have only hit that four to the equally mediocre Faheem

 

[160KPH]

Only 5 overs left with Iftikhar to come still, time to go for every ball

 

[Mrhandsome]

Excellent player this Usman. Very difficult to bowl to because he's unorthodox in style. Picks the gaps beautifully and hangs on during tough periods to play a proper knock. Too bad he had to leave the country

He is not eligible to play?

 

[Savak]

Shukar Hai Karachites have kept some PSL izzat in the final.

PCB needs to engage with a market research, analysis firm why Karachites don't come to the stadium for all games. Even the KHI Lahore game was poorly attended.

 

[Justcrazy]

114 / 4

30 balls to go

 

[Asad T]

Ifti is coming is coming in way too late

 

[Rana]

5 overs

1 from Imad
1 from Shadab
2 from Naseem
1 from Mills

 

[Cricket Warrior]

Khushdil the mighty Shah will win the finals for his team tonight.

 

[emranabbas]

He is not eligible to play?

he doesn't want to play for pakistan

 

[PakEngFan]

Usman Khan is a proper tullaybaz, will struggle against high ranked international teams. He has made a good decision by choosing UAE, best for his career $$$.

He's a nothing batsmen will be a sitting duck against pace at international level.

 

[PakEngFan]

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

Yeah batsmen gifting wickets means you are mentally strong.

 

[Human786]

so , me finds the Tea lounge rather goofy ..... OUTTTTTTTTTTTTT

 

[emranabbas]

cox is a decent fielder

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Another good example of what you get with overseas players

Good catch Cox

 

[Rana]

Shadab won this battle

Good on you son

 

[emranabbas]

all down to happyheart shah and ifti mania now

 

[CerebralPatriot]

Another masterstroke from legwan bringing in Usama

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Mir what's this bro

6 off the first ball

 

[Mrhandsome]

Munros substitute fielded superbly today

 

[Rana]

This is proper village captaincy by Rizwan

 

[Justcrazy]

Shadab gets the man , Usman gone

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Mir this is what I mean

He's thrown it

 

[Mrhandsome]

Why isn’t Iftikar on

 

[CerebralPatriot]

Brilliant Rizzy brilliant

 

[Asad T]

What a catch from Coxx, such a good fielder he is

 

[Justcrazy]

SIX

Usama hammers the first ball for six

 

[Rana]

wow Hunain held on to one

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Finally Hunain hangs on to one

 

[Mrhandsome]

Usama Mir. & Wasim Jr are NOT all rounders

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

Ek chakka marrke
Maxwell samjhe the kya?
Usama mir hai mai.

 

[Asad T]

At least Mir didn't waste time

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why have Multan messed around with their playing order today for a final

 

[Human786]

Beast walks in

 

[Rana]

This is the guy you want captaining Pakistan?

He will turn Pakistan into a Sunday Birmingham league club XI

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Protecting Ifti from wrist spin as much as possible. No hiding now

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

Just saw the scorecard
No rizwan deserves the opening position.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

At least Mir didn't waste time

Neither did Willey tbf actually

 

[Rana]

Beast walks in

Against wrist spinner

 

[emranabbas]

same babar strategy keep wickets and hit out at the end this is why rizwan will not be a good captain for pakistan

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

Just saw the scorecard
No rizwan deserves the opening position.

Way*

 

[Asad T]

MS need to get 50-60 more runs

 

[Human786]

Against wrist spinner

126/7

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Who's going to be opening the batting for IU

 

[CerebralPatriot]

Imadddddddddd

 

[Rana]

4fer for Maddy

He can get one more in this over

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Imad with 4 wickets

Khushdil gone

 

[emranabbas]

another for imad and yet he cant play for pakistan

 

[Justcrazy]

126 . 7

Multan ship is sinking and sinking fast here

 

[CerebralPatriot]

You had Tayab Tahir in the squad however Rizwan couldn't resist playing his parchi

A well deserved humiliation for the KP boys

 

[Deewana Mastana]

5fer for Imad

 

[Human786]

126/8

 

[emranabbas]

imad on hattrick

 

[Mrhandsome]

same babar strategy keep wickets and hit out at the end this is why rizwan will not be a good captain for pakistan

I think the plans have worked perfectly for Isb. Multan with the team have already exceeded expectations by reaching finals
