[world cup captain]

Let's what happens to professor today

 

[super hitter]

Didn't see the match, What a Knock by all of these lads. KP rocks

 

[Markhor]

Islamabad get called out for not supporting young talents but this Zalmi team hasn't one unless you count Hasan Ali, but he's already established in the national team. Asghar is not in the XI.

Islamabad are playing Shadab Khan, Amad Butt and Rumman Raees.

very valid point zalmi is taking unfair advantage of hasan ali .. amad is playing on flattest of track and also small ground a bad match and his PSL 2 is over

 

[Sub-Zero]

Zalmi looks favourite

 

[Sub-Zero]

Zalmi should play M irfan leg spinner i want to see him bowl please

But... but... it's Misbah...

He never supports youngsters.

 

[Sub-Zero]

Islamabad have won the toss and are bowling first

 

[Sub-Zero]

Saeed Ajmal is not playing

friendship ended

 

[super hitter]

Pitch report: There is a strong breeze blowing across the ground. The pitch is a belter. It's hard, flat and even with a few cracks in place. Over 400 runs were scored in the previous game and these two teams will be looking at something similar, reckons Mel Jones.

 

[Sub-Zero]

Hafeez is gonna open again today
Islu fans rejoice

 

[Sub-Zero]

Zalmi are not even giving chances to Khushdil

[ExplicitAI]

Umar Akmal the "crunchy hitter" ) Guy can't bat to save his life.

[saeed5646]

[Sarfarazian92]

On what basis is Hasan Ali an emerging player but Usama Mir isn't?

 

[Ummii]

[Hamza_]

Still Hafeez playing for PZ. Real Golden Boy of Pakistan Cricket

 

[Hasan123]

Islamabad get called out for not supporting young talents but this Zalmi team hasn't one unless you count Hasan Ali, but he's already established in the national team. Asghar is not in the XI.

Islamabad are playing Shadab Khan, Amad Butt and Rumman Raees.

Bad day for [MENTION=138254]Syed1[/MENTION] .

 

[Ummii]

wow Pakistani Amla is playing for Zalmi

 

[Sub-Zero]

one thing is good that youngsters like Shadab and Hassan are excellent fielders

 

[tanveer din]

wow Pakistani Amla is playing for Zalmi

who?

 

[tanveer din]

On what basis is Hasan Ali an emerging player but Usama Mir isn't?

Usama mir played a t20 against zimbabwe

 

[Sub-Zero]

headshot

 

[Sub-Zero]

Big wicket
shabba Rumman

 

[dhump]

big wicket tamim gone

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Roman reigns has some 3rd class celebrations

 

[Hasan123]

Raees isn't bad. Another player who gets too much hate

 

[dhump]

if Hafeez cant perform on this wicket I dont know where he will.

 

[dhump]

Raees isn't bad. Another player who gets too much hate

nothing extraordinary to offer really...he is not international material as of yet.

 

[saeed5646]

a good send off from rumman raees i don,t like tamim

 

[Sub-Zero]

Shot Hafeez

 

[dhump]

this shirts throwing looks seriously offending here

 

[Hasan123]

Good shot by professer saab

 

[Hasan123]

nothing extraordinary to offer really...he is not international material as of yet.

He seems to have improved from the last psl

 

[Ummii]

who?

Rafatullah

 

[Belawal2014]

if Hafeez cant perform on this wicket I dont know where he will.

Against Steyn in SA.

 

[dhump]

hafeez gets a life

 

[dhump]

Against Steyn in SA.

If steyn decides to ball underarm.

 

[Ummii]

Hafeez's night

 

[Sub-Zero]

ahahahahahahah

Hafeez professor gone

 

[dhump]

and Hafeez full-filling his potential

 

[Ummii]

Hafeez's night

Poor me

 

[saeed5646]

time for Sammy to drop hafeez from PZ playing 11 he is useless t20 batsmen

 

[Madplayer]

Hafeez is woefully out of form.

 

[tanveer din]

Rafatullah

youngsta beauty

 

[world cup captain]

Bad from IU, should have kept Hafeez til the end.

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Hafeez flop needs to be dropped from PZ starting XI.

He's one fifty away from getting selected from West Indies.

 

[Zeshan547]

If steyn decides to ball underarm.

no man, he will still find a way to get out, now failed again, at this rate till the end of psl the national treasure will have to be dropped even from psl.

 

[MMHS]

Another improvement of average for MoHa.

 

[Indiafan]

Against Steyn in SA.

Yep he is saving his best for Steyn

 

[Hasan123]

Another failure from Hafeez

 

[Sub-Zero]

Hafeez is woefully out of form.

time for a call up in the test side to improve his performance

 

[tanveer din]

predict score?

 

[Madplayer]

time for a call up in the test side to improve his performance

True. Selector's logic

 

[MMHS]

MoHa's improvement in cumulative average at PSL : 0.00, 0.00, 1.00, 4.75, 5.80

At this rate, if PAK makes the CT Final (Including 12 innings in WI), he should play a match winning 85 ......

 

[Barragan]

The pitch seems to have slowed down a bit.

 

[Hasan123]

A shame that the England players are going home after today, having them in the league will help psl get more recognized especially in the UK.

 

[Zeshan547]

the end is nigh

 

[Sub-Zero]

fantastic from Morgan

 

[Barragan]

That was a poor ball

 

[Sub-Zero]

A shame that the England players are going home after today, having them in the league will help psl get more recognized especially in the UK.

it will be a huge loss for some teams, the likes of Morgan, Roy, Billings will leave

 

[Sub-Zero]

Shabba Shadab good comeback

 

[Markhor]

Shadab is really impressing. Hope Misbah puts a good word into Inzy. Troubling internationally capped batsmen here.

 

[Barragan]

Lovely googly to get rid of Kamran

 

[Markhor]

Bad day for [MENTION=134608]Hawkeye[/MENTION]. Sarfraz the accumulator leads his Friends XI to victory whilst hitting 45 off 25 whilst "explosive and dynamic" Akmal Brothers out cheaply.

 

[world cup captain]

Shadab seems to be a thinker, should be called up to the squad against WI.

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Shaba beta ghr jao

 

[Zeshan547]

Man this kid shadab is the best leggi in pak right now, he should be a must in our LOI team, i have seen enough of him, he may not set the world on fire straight away but will be more than handy for hapless bowling unit like ours.

 

[Belawal2014]

Yep he is saving his best for Steyn

Yes, he has an account to settle with him.

 

[Sub-Zero]

Shadab "Imran Tahir" Khan should get a call up

 

[saeed5646]

shadab vs usama is getting closer and closer both are very good

 

[Belawal2014]

Shadab is really impressing. Hope Misbah puts a good word into Inzy. Troubling internationally capped batsmen here.

Also a good fielder. Would be a good addition to our side.

 

[Hasan123]

Shadab showing the importance of a leg break bowler in LO.

 

[saeed5646]

lets see how much has maqsood improve

 

[Sub-Zero]

Maqsood is a joke of a player
deserve a call up for ODI team

 

[Barragan]

Maqsood out to the short ball
