Islamabad United beat Lahore Qalandars by five wickets in the opening match of PSL 2019

[ARK Rafay]

Might actually work.
We just need a new ball bowler

Yea. And who else besides GOAT Rahat Ali. He did a decent job in 2015 WC as well except for that drop catch.

 

[Rana]

Short run rate

 

[Greenstorm]

Talat beaten by pace. Harris' runup is similar to Bumrah.

 

[Rana]

Short run up

 

[a_tahir]

Why's it stuck on 138?

 

[rhony]

Rauf seems to be losing momentum with that unnecessary short step right before he gets on to the bowling crease

 

[Goharn]

Wanna see him go up to 145 at least.

 

[xricket]

138 on the trott. And I thought he was next shoaib akhtar

 

[babajee]

Only 138 kph

 

[Rana]

Where is the 140 mark

 

[Watsupdoc]

Rauf apparently is quite quick.

Let’s see how he does here.

 

[Rana]

His shirt is too big

 

[a_tahir]

I swear he hits 140+ regularly. Even in his bowling vids.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Haris Rauf bowling 138KPHish so far

 

[Syed1]

Abay issay tou 145 nahi horahi

 

[shah_1]

Nothing over 140a

Just touched 140

 

[Rana]

Why does he have the number 150?

 

[ARK Rafay]

I swear he hits 140+ regularly. Even in his bowling vids.

I know he hits 145 regularly. Maybe nerves

 

[Goharn]

He has no domestic experience. Let the nerves settle in. He needs time to improve.

 

[imshally81]

145 kph now..
Talk nah

 

[shah_1]

145 kph??

No sure

 

[Greenstorm]

145 by Harris. Seems very raw.

 

[Anchorman]

That last ball from Rauf was 145 kmp/h.

 

[Plumb]

150kph is his secret ball...keeping it a secret

 

[Rana]

There we go, 145

Pitches it full and has pace

 

[a_tahir]

145
That's good

 

[xricket]

145, wow! This lad can bowl like Rahat pace

 

[shah_1]

Last two balls were okay

 

[Greenstorm]

These two are playing match losing innings here.

 

[Syed1]

Meanwhile Talat ul-Haq batting at blistering SR of 73

 

[shah_1]

145, wow! This lad can bowl like Rahat pace

Rahat pace?

 

[Watsupdoc]

145 kph that was quick

 

[imshally81]

 

[shah_1]

Six

 

[Greenstorm]

Where was this six against Shamsi in SA Talat ?

 

[imshally81]

 

[Anchorman]

Wow, Talat!

 

[ravisurya]

Is Hafeez chucking again??

 

[Plumb]

Talat..... made the shot so difficult... that was good shot... next one

 

[Watsupdoc]

What are these two doing?

 

[IMMY69]

I like Talat

 

[silentkiller187]

professor looks like he reverted back to chucking ,couple of suspect looking deliveries

 

[Plumb]

If Talat wins this for ISB he will become star

 

[xricket]

Rahat pace?

144, this match.

 

[Greenstorm]

If Talat wins this for ISB he will become star

He has won them matches before.

 

[shah_1]

Good pace

 

[Goharn]

I can't recall any decent performance by Delport and he's been playing PSL since the first edition. Who is his dad?

 

[Rana]

Pitches it up. Quick

 

[shah_1]

Bazid lol

 

[Anchorman]

Rahat with figures of 3-6. Hafeez probably wanted to give the fans something to watch which is why he took the GOAT out of the attack.

Having Rahat is like playing GTA Vice City with cheatcodes on.

 

[Rana]

Short, 139

Full, 145

 

[imshally81]

No ball

 

[Goharn]

Getting it up there at around 145, can't say that for a lot of Pak bowlers.

 

[Plumb]

He has won them matches before.

that didnt make him star.. this will, that's what I meant

 

[Rana]

That was hillarious

 

[Watsupdoc]

Delport bhai kuch karlo

 

[Titan24]

Rauf's runup is bit like Bumrah

 

[shah_1]

Like it so far

 

[Anchorman]

MashaAllah, Haris.

Should've written "Raw" too underneath his number if he wanted his kit to be extra informative.

 

[Rana]

As long as his action is clear, and he wears a shirt his size he looks ok

 

[Syed1]

Rahat with figures of 3-6. Hafeez probably wanted to give the fans something to watch which is why he took the GOAT out of the attack.

Having Rahat is like playing GTA Vice City with cheatcodes on.

Or Age of Empires with that Ferari

 

[Watsupdoc]

That was hilarious
Bazid

 

[imshally81]

 

[Anchorman]

Delport wakes up.

 

[Syed1]

Awkward moment when I want both teams to lose...... but I want LQ to lose more

 

[Rana]

Raw yes, Ab will inshallah teach this boy things during net sessionz

 

[ARK Rafay]

Raw yes, Ab will inshallah teach this boy things during net sessionz

That will be so good for him.

 

[a_tahir]

Haris "150" Rauf being exposed here.

 

[Greenstorm]

Or Age of Empires with that Ferari

Or NFS 2 with FZR2000.

 

[xricket]

Rauf's runup is bit like Bumrah

2 legs?

 

[Watsupdoc]

AB has still got it in the field.

 

[Barragan]

Haris looks very raw, but definite potential and he can get quicker, so he bowls 145+ consistently.

 

[imshally81]

 

[xricket]

Haris "150" Rauf being exposed here.

lol @ Exposed. It was never there. Hyped by some error in speed checker

 

[x_KINGKHAN_x]

Search for the next proper fast opening bowler goes on?

 

[Anchorman]

Or Age of Empires with that Ferari

Absolutely.

Meanwhile, Rauf has "express-pace" in the same way Wahab does, which actually means they can hit 150 once in a blue moon and us Pakistanis can console ourselves that we're still capable of producing express pacers.

 

[Greenstorm]

Awkward moment when I want both teams to lose...... but I want LQ to lose more

Why do you want them to lose ? Both are my favourite teams and will be in the final.

 

[HappyWarsFan]

Rauf is pretty quick. (i'd say he averages around 141 speed) has potential. His line/length is alright but he could control it a bit more.

 

[imshally81]

x

 

[rhony]

Rauf's runup is bit like Bumrah

Exactly what I thought. Bumrah accelerates at the end and Rauf has these tiny steps at the end.
