Islamabad United (204/4) beat Karachi Kings (201/5) by 6 wickets in Match 19 of PSL8

[Mankaded]

Not sure if his strike rotation is good enough to bat in top 5

Really pushed for singles and doubles on this small ground today.

 

[zarak]

Number 7 is ridiculously low for him. He is easy odi #5

 

[Rana]

3 wickets in the powerplay and KK have got this in the bag I recon

 

[Ahmed216]

Yes.

300+ runs at a sr above 170 and he isn’t good enough to bat in the top 5

For 50 overs I meant

 

[Ahmed216]

Really pushed for singles and doubles on this small ground today.

Oh ok. Haven’t watched much of this PSL

 

[zarak]

3 wickets in the powerplay and KK have got this in the bag I recon

They let a team like Peshawar off the hook after three wickets. ISB has a way better lineup

Runs on the board is always a different challange

IU have been poor chasers this tournament

 

[zarak]

True. But they could also be 75-2 after 6. That type of team

 

[Rana]

The middle order of Shadab-Faheem will be chances galore for the fielding team. Just need to get through that top 3 of Hales, Munro and RVD

 

[Rana]

Wow Amir massive breakthrough!!

 

[topspin]

Amir deserves that wicket. He has the bowling IQ to dismiss top players and bounce back after being hit by a boundary.

Love him or hate him, Pakistan needs him in the ODI World Cup in India later this year.

 

[Saj]

Early breakthrough for KK but this IU batting unit is tremendous.

 

[boomboomcheema]

KK will have to continue to strike in this match, can't reply upon containing the opposition on what looks like a good pitch to bat on.

 

[topspin]

Sharjeel, Tayyab and Rossington should have done much better for KK. 200 looks nothing more than par.

 

[AAli98]

Apart from Nortje why would franchises pick certificated chokers like van Düssen & SA players for there teams.

 

[boomboomcheema]

Islamabad are cruising, nothing stopping them . 200 suddenly looking like an average total here. Hoping for a twist .

 

[Rana]

Come on KK just get into that shaky middle order!

 

[JibranAnsari]

Andrew tye so far in this psl

12 overs 129 runs @ 10.75 rpo

 

[Rana]

Death blow by Yameen

 

[topspin]

Hales has thrown it way.

Top of off stump from Yamin. Well bowled.

 

[Fenrir]

Apart from Nortje why would franchises pick certificated chokers like van Düssen & SA players for there teams.

South African players choke in ICC tournaments but they are not bad players.SA have produce many good cricketers.

 

[Rana]

Perfect man to fall at the right time for KK

 

[Rana]

Yamin deserved that wicket

He bowled really well

 

[MenInG]

Yamin deserved that wicket

He bowled really well

May have won the game for KK

[MenInG]

Think game gone for Islamabad

 

[Rana]

Now you are into that long hit and Miss middle order

Come on Imad don’t let this slip!

 

[NeVerMind]

Out comes Azam "Bazooka" Khan...

 

[Saj]

Shadab down the order today.

Hiding?

 

[Rana]

A few years ago I would never feed Yamin to Hales. Especially on a track like this

Well bowled Aamer!

 

[boomboomcheema]

Ideal opportunity for Azam Khan to shut up his detractors today.

 

[jattafridi]

Congrats Karachi

Man of the match well played imad

 

[JibranAnsari]

Iu batting is finkshed

 

[Saj]

Azam Khan already turning 2s into 1s.

And people say he doesn't need to lose weight.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Azam Khan already turning 2s into 1s.

And people say he doesn't need to lose weight.

He turns 4s into 6s so neutralized

 

[JibranAnsari]

Whats the point of faheem ashraf

 

[boomboomcheema]

These two playing for a draw ?

 

[Justcrazy]

United need 116 runs in 58 balls.

 

[Justcrazy]

SIXXX

Azam Hits that away

 

[boomboomcheema]

Azam Khan finally opening up..keep the momentum going.

 

[Rana]

Imad’s bowling has gone to the dogs recently

 

[Justcrazy]

required rate is over 12 now

 

[Rana]

Stop feeding spinners to Azam!!!

 

[boomboomcheema]

Wow Azam shifting the momentum big time in the last couple of overs. Need Ashraf at the other end to contribute as well .

 

[PakPremi]

Shadab down the order today.

Hiding?

After few consecutive failures trying to prove he is not selfish captain, buthe had to bat before Faheem as Faheem is worse.

 

[PakPremi]

Stop feeding spinners to Azam!!!

Ok let them feed Tye.

 

[boomboomcheema]

Toying with the deliveries now Azam .

 

[Justcrazy]

Azam Khan is looking good , he is trying hard .

 

[Adi_62945]

Rana sahab always try his best to score 6 but havent seen him getting success. Very poor slog batsmen

 

[boomboomcheema]

Faheem killing the momentum at the other end. Can't put all the responsibility on Azam herem both will have to contribute for ISU to win the match here.

 

[Saj]

Faheem could win this for Karachi Kings.

What is he doing.

 

[Snowflake]

Poor Azam is stuck with lull partner

11 from 15 chasing 200! Match losing innings this from Faheem

 

[msb314]

Faheem is rubbish…

 

[shah_1]

Azam is too good of a player

 

[Smbhayi]

Lol poor review, seems like Amir doesn't know lbw rule

 

[MenInG]

Faheem is rubbish…

Season after season - same result.

 

[Justcrazy]

United need 75 runs in 39 balls.

 

[shah_1]

Amir is struggling

 

[Saj]

Mohammad Amir limping again.

I guess KK have no choice other than to play him when he's nowhere near full fitness.

 

[Justcrazy]

Faheem needs to get going here , he is not in the grove

 

[Saj]

Yamin's slower balls are so predictable.

Needs to avoid bowling too many of them.

 

[Justcrazy]

United need 59 runs in 32 balls.

The game is on.

 

[imshally81]

50 for Azam

 

[shah_1]

One of the best basher of spin in the world

He should bat at 4 for Pakistan

 

[Rana]

Desperately need a wicket

 

[Justcrazy]

Azam is on song here , he is timing very well here.

 

[shah_1]

Desperately need a wicket

Big show Azam Khan won't let this happen

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Amir faking injury when getting hammered

 

[Energy]

Karachi needs a good local fast bowler next season. Need to get Naseem or Hasnain from Quetta. And get good overseas players.

One proper short ball from Tye and Azam can't get a bat on it.

 

[shah_1]

Tye is such a crap player

 

[Justcrazy]

Faheem needs to connect a few here , without that Islamabad cannot win.

 

[ArabKnight]

Desperately need a wicket

Azam Khan is a finisher. This man is a lion.

When he comes on to the pitch, the game is over.

I did hope for the KK to win. But, Azam Khan isn’t a looser.

 

[Justcrazy]

United need 31 runs in 18 balls.

IU should win this from here.

 

[SamNJ]

Karachi feeding full tosses on leg stump to Azam.
Non serious franchise.

 

[Rana]

Not out again

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

2 reviews wasted by Amir

 

[Smbhayi]

Look like not out..

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Sharjeel with lightning speed running on field

 

[imshally81]

Another wide from Amir

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Another wide from Amir

He knows he has to fetch it from crowd if bowled within the stumps.

 

[Saj]

Brilliant batting this from Azam Khan.
