Islamabad United v Karachi Kings | PSL 2 | Eliminator | Sharjah | Mar 1, 2017 | Match Thread

[Madplayer]

even if KK score a 200 now, they've lost the game, we need at least a maiden when bowling to win the game...u just can't imagine 12 bowls dotted straightaway in a t-20

I dont follow the logic here? karachi will lose even if they score 200 because they played two maidens???

cricketgateway feed is very frustrating today. way too much buffering.

 

[Syed1]

Too busy at work today to follow this match. I'm there in spirit with the KK boys..


Lets rip apart the Isluuuuuuuuuuuuuusss




Quite expected that Misbah dropped Talat after one failure.

 

[dauntless]

Sami is bowling decently

Channel 2 has been perfect for me.

Not sure if I should skip class for the match or just follow the score in class on my phone.

 

[srh]

First 2 overs zero runs

Next 2 overs 29 runs.

Playing first 2 overs for no runs is nothing to be proud of . Those 2 overs might cost KK the match.

Thats true.

 

[super hitter]

out of 120 deliveries, if u duck first 13 on a ground where boundaries can be hit effortlessly, don't you think that makes a big difference, KK can win if captain uses his brain.

 

[Hawkeye]

Talat's injured?

yeah

 

[srh]

Thats true.

Karachi is lucky that Sharjeel is not playing against them. He would never waste that many balls.

 

[Adil_94]

Boss celebration by Rumman Raees the big dog strikes.

 

[jattafridi]

Finally

 

[Hamza_]

This is more like it.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Another poor knock from Gayle

 

[dauntless]

Gayle's time is up he should play IPL only

 

[Rayyman]

Gayle

b Raees

 

[jattafridi]

Gayle gone flop show

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Gayle out on total flat wicket.

 

[Hamza_]

Karachi is lucky that Sharjeel is not playing against them. He would never waste that many balls.

Sharjeel is just super timer of the ball. Very different to our other batsmen

 

[srh]

Opening with Babar puts undue pressure on the other opener.

 

[jattafridi]

Malik and pollard should perform

 

[imranraf]

Another failure by Gayle. He has been most disappointing performer of the tournament.

 

[super hitter]

Karachi is lucky that Sharjeel is not playing against them. He would never waste that many balls.

since the recovery is enough good, lets expect something good.

PZ were at the same phase with 2 wicket gone and made 199 by the end but we have some mediocre players to come next except pollard

 

[Rayyman]

Opening with Babar puts undue pressure on the other opener.

Not sure if Match thread or Babar bashing thread?

 

[srh]

Not sure if Match thread or Babar bashing thread?

both

 

[Madplayer]

Banar out . shadab gets him again.

 

[Cheetah99]

out of 120 deliveries, if u duck first 13 on a ground where boundaries can be hit effortlessly, don't you think that makes a big difference, KK can win if captain uses his brain.

Bhai kehna kya chahrahe ho, khuda ki kasam samajh nahi arahee

 

[Hamza_]

Shadab is trolling Babar. Lol

 

[Madplayer]

Karachi in trouble.

Babar didnt pick the googly again.

 

[NauV]

I have maintained all along that Babar needs to really improve his play against spin bowling if he wants to be an absolute top player!

 

[Rafay Shafiq]

babar is shadab bunny....not good against spinners

 

[super hitter]

yeahhhhhhhhhhhh


tuk tuk gone...

he always costs KK the 6-15 over phase

 

[srh]

told you guys; Babar has effectively killed Karachi's chances in this game

 

[Syed1]

Khuda ki kasam agar Inzi ne Shadab ko Pakistan ke aglay match mein nahi khilaya na tou meine Multan ja ke iskay ghar ke agay dharna dalna hai

 

[dauntless]

Babar was looking good

 

[Rayyman]

I have maintained all along that Babar needs to really improve his play against spin bowling if he wants to be an absolute top player!

I agree. Picking leggies isn't hard. Just look at the wrist.

 

[Madplayer]

Shadab's stock ball is googly

 

[super hitter]

Bhai kehna kya chahrahe ho, khuda ki kasam samajh nahi arahee

bhai keh raha hun k Karachi ke haarnay ke chances 90 feesadh hen

 

[srh]

If Pakistan play Babar as T20I opener then they will most likely lose all their matches

 

[Rayyman]

Failed toppie.

 

[dauntless]

These guys have to bat till 15 overs

 

[Rayyman]

Leg break

 

[Syed1]

I agree. Picking leggies isn't hard. Just look at the wrist.

Not true.. there is only a very subtle difference in the ball release of a googly and leg-spinner of a wrist spinner.

 

[Smooth criminal]

Hattrick to shadab!

 

[Rayyman]

2 straight googlies

 

[Pakpak]

Karachi have to survive Shadab. Even though I am a Lahore supporter I hope Karachi win. Islamabad supporters are unbearable.

 

[srh]

25 runs on 20 balls in Power Play as opener Even Asad Shafiq can do that easily

 

[Madplayer]

Bro you need a drinks break

 

[Rayyman]

Not true.. there is only a very subtle difference in the ball release of a googly and leg-spinner of a wrist spinner.

No way. Wrist position is opposite.

 

[Syed1]

Those are not Islamabad supporters, those are Misbah fans who would even support India if Misbah decided to play for India tomorrow.

 

[Muhammad10]

 

[Rayyman]

Another wrong un

 

[Hamza_]

Karachi Haray Ga.

Come on ISLU Youngsta beauties

 

[Azzurri]

I guess this was a Hattrick for shadab. Isn't it ?

 

[JibranAnsari]

poor innings by babar.

 

[Rayyman]

Pitch is two paced.

 

[Syed1]

Hattricks span across overs or innings but not across matches. So no not a hattrick

 

[JibranAnsari]

babar too is weak against spin like his cousin.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

160-170 is par here. This wicket's a bit slow.

 

[Pakpak]

Those are not Islamabad supporters, those are Misbah fans who would even support India if Misbah decided to play for India tomorrow.

I agree, kind of what I wanted to say.

 

[srh]

Bro you need a drinks break

I want what is best for Pakistan and Babar as T20 opener is not the best option

 

[MMHS]

This is probably 2nd match on same wicket, ball isn't bouncing much. It won't be 399 runs match today.

 

[shariqnoor]

I can see Karachi limping to a 130 score

 

[coooolali]

So its Hattrick for Young Shadab. Cant believe Commentators did not mention it

 

[srh]

damn Hadin awesome

 

[Cheetah99]

bhai keh raha hun k Karachi ke haarnay ke chances 90 feesadh hen

Matlab bhai if karachi even scores upto 200 runs, but do not bowl any maiden over in their bowling means they cant win this match??

 

[Rayyman]

babar too is weak against spin like his cousin.

Shadab's wrist was not for leg break or flipper so he shouldn't have been on front foot. Because I haven't seen a good slider or toppie from him yet.

 

[Syed1]

So its Hattrick for Young Shadab. Cant believe Commentators did not mention it

Because its not.. Hattricks do not span across matches.

 

[super hitter]

nice stop by sanga!!!

KK ducking the bowl with perfection

 

[NauV]

For me this is a 160 pitch . . but buffer of 20 runs at least for the dew . . so anything below 180 would mean advantage Islamabad!

 

[Rayyman]

Good attacking field from Misbah.

 

[Hamza_]

Hopeless team Karachi Kings

 

[super hitter]

Matlab bhai if karachi even scores upto 200 runs, but do not bowl any maiden over in their bowling means they cant win this match??

ab tho 200 be mushkil ha,

there will be a lot of dew as well in the 2nd innings so KK out of the match

 

[Rayyman]

Lot of sliders from Shadab.

 

[JibranAnsari]

shadab should be played like an offspinner, he bowls either straight or googly. he does not have a good leg break delivery. Novelty factor will wear off soon.

 

[Rayyman]

Too much flight and wide half volley.

 

[super hitter]

kk needs 120 more

 

[GreenKnightRises]

classy from Mia malik
