[saeed5646]

Better now 140kph.

 

[Titan24]

Akif pace is down ...

He is coming back after fitness issue so it will take him bit of time to get into groove

 

[minamino]

Butt giving the treatment to the trundler. Take that haters

 

[badsha001]

thats their maximum talund

someone give this guy a medal for this post.

 

[Hawkeye]

If LQ chases this, I am gonna leave PP forever.

)

LQ can never chase vs ISLU.

 

[MMHS]

Butt still playing in PSL!!!!!! Well, my mistake then - he is a Lahori in this LQ team.

 

[Green Patriot]

Hafeez must be thanking his lucky stars that he got out to Akif.

 

[Rana]

Is Azam Khan umpiring today?

 

[minamino]

The fielder should be penalized

 

[Poutine]

Choice.

They deserve to lose than. Even if you ignore the fixing, Butt is not a T20 batsman. They would have been better off opening with Sohail Akhtar and getting someone else in the middle order.

 

[saeed5646]

If united want to win they shouldn't take wicket of butt

 

[Justcrazy]

Lahore need a solid partnership here

 

[Hawkeye]

ISLU has got their combination right finally.

They're gonna be unbeatable from now on.

Just Shadab coming in to bat early hurts us a bit as he's not a fluent hitter. Need someone else to hit as many balls as possible.

 

[watson367]

Need to smack Shadab for some sixes

 

[Justcrazy]

Lahore needs to look for some big overs , to keep required rate under control.

 

[watson367]

Salman butt playing t20, what has the world come to.

 

[Energy]

Butt is playing such a dheet innings its not even funny. You know he's not going for aerial shots and that's ridiculously selfish.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Beautiful day 1 pitch it is. Salman Butt still at the crease. 17 of 19 balls

 

[Titan24]

So Gohar is playing as many wanted to. Lets see how he does

 

[saeed5646]

Salman butt playing t20, what has the world come to.

Typical ttf mentality of 2010

Butt to dunk"I will give you strike you hit "

 

[ARK Rafay]

Salman Butt to get out of the last ball of this game.

 

[Justcrazy]

up for Lahore

 

[ARK Rafay]

Dunk needs to be sensible here and run out Butt here.

 

[saeed5646]

15 old kid can pick better squad than clueless aqib and his team

This should be aqib last season

 

[watson367]

Butt mela loot nai aya hai

 

[ARK Rafay]

Arguably the worst XI to play in PSL history.

 

[watson367]

Aerial shot by Salman butt

 

[Justcrazy]

Dunk gone

 

[Titan24]

Shadab has taken the key wicket

 

[minamino]

Shadab has taken the key wicket

What do you mean by the key wicket. Match is already finished.

 

[Rellu_Katta]

how did Akif Javiad bowl? speeds? any swing ?

 

[Energy]

Rana brothers nowhere to be seen. Our captain charisma decides to field and is hiding behind other players when it comes to the chase.

Meanwhile Butt will come to the presser and say his role was to rotate strike. The speech is already ready.

 

[coy0607]

with Dunk gone, Butt should look to consolidate and anchor the side. Just play out the session

 

[ARK Rafay]

Btw Dunk came at no. 3 and won the match for LQ. Today he came at no. 4 that too with Butt who is forever batting below 100 SR.

 

[minamino]

LQ tried to follow the blueprint from the last game and with shock to no one, they failed

 

[watson367]

Butt nay kadmo ka istamaal kiya, aur single

 

[ARK Rafay]

No sane person would drop Fakhar Zaman for Salman Butt in a T20.

 

[saeed5646]

Butt nay kadmo ka istamaal kiya, aur single

Lol

 

[coy0607]

Butt nay kadmo ka istamaal kiya, aur single

zabardast ballaybazi

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

Such sharamful innings by sharamful Salman butt

 

[watson367]

Zafar let's go!!

 

[ZamanFan]

Butt should'nt have played for Qalandars, shameful step by Lahore management. Jinxed the whole team and now gets out playing with strike rate of 88 in a T20

 

[Energy]

Typical Butt innings. He is an embarrassment to Lahore. Aqib is another one of those embarrassments that we need to carry around with us.

 

[Justcrazy]

Salman Butt gone , pathetic innings , strike rate of 87 , when you chasing 200 , this should be last time we see him in PSL. He is done and dusted.

 

[Pakpak]

Butt nay kadmo ka istamaal kiya, aur single

Gold

 

[watson367]

I want Lahore to lose so badly, any team that selects Salman Butt should be humiliated

 

[coy0607]

a lovely innings by a handsome and well educated guy.. hope he gives an interview in his sophisticated english later today

 

[Energy]

Islamabad have a good strong team. Lahore want to have a Qalandar approach but end up looking like a lazy paindu dump.

 

[watson367]

Smith Patel on the crease

 

[Abdullah719]

Game over. Can't fluke a win everyday

 

[MRSN]

win the toss and bowl first after winning by batting out the opposition last night. Only Qalandars think tank can do this

 

[shah_1]

Shadab has bowled beautifully

 

[watson367]

Smith Patel on the crease

And he's gone. Qalandars bringing their fans to reality

 

[Justcrazy]

I doubt I have seen any PSL XI worse than this.

 

[ammar_merry]

sharmful.as good platform was set by butt.

 

[saeed5646]

Just curious who should lahore hire there new coach .Realistic option please ...

Tom moody, kirsten are not available..

 

[MRSN]

I want Lahore to lose so badly, any team that selects Salman Butt should be humiliated

Aqib should be sacked. What a clown.

 

[Titan24]

I hope that the Butt experiment is over as there is no point of him playing the PSL. Neither he is a T20 player nor he is young

 

[watson367]

shot faizan

 

[ARK Rafay]

I wonder if Salman Butt was also one their PDP players.

 

[MRSN]

Just curious who should lahore hire there new coach .Realistic option please ...

Tom moody, kirsten are not available..

anyone can do a better job than this guy Aqib. What a fraud. It's amazing how LQ owners have put their blind faith in him without any accountability

 

[Titan24]

Just curious who should lahore hire there new coach .Realistic option please ...

Tom moody, kirsten are not available..

Mike Hessen? If amongst local ones I think Mohammad Wasimm can be a good option

 

[Energy]

Farcical performance.

But the LQ family business is stronger than ever. Lots of money being made by looking like clowns.

 

[Rellu_Katta]

lol... PSL board shld really do something abt Qalandars... their team and form is a shame to PSL....

this is just waste of time and our emotions... seriously pathatic

 

[Nasty Naz]

What an awful team Lahore Qalanders are. Basically devoid of any talent and the team is loaded with old mediocre players.

PCB should basically force every team to select Butt on any team so he can finally have some decency to retire. Mediocre player at its peak and played the game like it was 1980's and is nowhere near suited for the game nowadays.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Just curious who should lahore hire there new coach .Realistic option please ...

Mohammad Wasim.

 

[saeed5646]

Don't know about the actual contract but LQ might have messed up by giving him more than 3 year contract

 

[PakPremi]

Shadab shutting haters yet again. The only excuse left now is I dont like his looks.

 

[watson367]

Islamabad into the tail, wait they were into the tail since ball 1

 

[Rellu_Katta]

this team LQ is so bad that even if ISLU started reverse, sending batting from 11 and up and bowling reverse with ronchi n munro starting the bowling, we would still lose

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

I can't believe Zafar has not gotten his chance yet in national team.These shadabs and Imads should never play ahead of this supremely talented player.

 

[PakPremi]

Good that Zafar making most of his chance.

 

[saeed5646]

Mohammad Wasim.

I like this option..

 

[watson367]

Islu would've won more matches if Zafar played

 

[saeed5646]

Mike Hessen? If amongst local ones I think Mohammad Wasimm can be a good option

Interesting wasim is decent option .Hesson availability is huge issue

 

[watson367]

Empty ground lmao. Lahoris dont want to see this embarrassing team

 

[ARK Rafay]

There's a Joke then there's Lahore Qalandars.

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

He got him.shabba mundya!! Dil Khush kita

 

[Titan24]

Empty ground lmao. Lahoris dont want to see this embarrassing team

People would have left after seeing this as at the start there was a decent crowd with some hope

 

[watson367]

Zafar on fire
