Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators | PSL Final | Dubai | Feb 23, 2016 | Islamabad Innings

[Firebreaker]

Even Fawad Khan is there but struggling to get spotlight from Ali Zafar

 

[Mamoon]

You will always bottle finals if you have Karachi players in your team.

Sarfraz, Moin etc. are all chokers, and have been choking for years.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Quetta why you disappointing in the final

They were always a rubbish team who got lucky. Apart from KP, Sanga and Nawaz

 

[Strike Rate]

Really great to see other team owners, players and our ex cricketers all sitting there to witness these last moments of psl.

 

[Barragan]

Massive six

Thanks for bowling elliot and losing it for QG

Nawaz was spinning it, but Zulfi wasn't given the ball

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Don't expect any twists. It's game over for Gladiators.

 

[Barragan]

There you go

 

[Syed1]

nooooooooooooooooooooo... its almost like india is winning semi

 

[cricfan14]

Really great to see other team owners, players and our ex cricketers all sitting there to witness these last moments of psl.

This is just really really well done all around.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Poor captaincy. Babar shouldve been given more overs with all his experience. Despite getting hit in his first over

 

[Lords]

Illiot has been made to look like a club bowler. These two guys are murdering the bowlers here.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Really great to see other team owners, players and our ex cricketers all sitting there to witness these last moments of psl.

But some people here loves to cry about every single thing.

 

[Nostalgic]

This is disappointing. Quetta being crowned the inaugural champions would've been a massive PR coup.

 

[Mamoon]

Only Saffers can compete with Karachiites when it comes to crumbling under pressure.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Haha all 5 longest sixes have been Islamabad

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Zulfiqar and Nawaz's overs are crucial. Anwar Ali will soil the party anyways in the end for them. Hilarious.

 

[Syed1]

Only Saffers can compete with Karachiites when it comes to crumbling under pressure.

And only Bengalis can compete with you for being a cry baby

 

[#GreenRoars]

 

[razabbas]

its over quetta unless these two falls

 

[Barragan]

Nvm

Even Zulfi baba getting hit

It's over for QG

 

[Firebreaker]

Why have strategic timeout in a final?

 

[Big Mac]

Haha all 5 longest sixes have been Islamabad

Tuk Tuk personified

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Only Saffers can compete with Karachiites when it comes to crumbling under pressure.

How can you forget the ATG 49 against SA in the world cup. A star was born that day

 

[Lords]

I want Misbah to hit the winning runs

 

[Firebreaker]

And only Bengalis can compete with you for being a cry baby

And no one can compete the greatness of UAE

 

[MABA]

need a miracle now for Quetta to win

 

[Syed1]

Bhai timeout lo ya time in.. out karo in kooooooooooooooooo

 

[Mamoon]

How can you forget the ATG 49 against SA in the world cup. A star was born that day

Indeed, greatest <50 score in history of ODI cricket.

 

[Lords]

How? whats the angle here

 

[Amir]

You will always bottle finals if you have Karachi players in your team.

Sarfraz, Moin etc. are all chokers, and have been choking for years.

Yeah but then you won't even make the finals. I rather be in the finals rather than on a PIA flight to Lahore.

 

[Mamoon]

And only Bengalis can compete with you for being a cry baby

I'm out of tissues, sorry can't lend you some. Cry on your pillow.

United We Win

 

[MMHS]

Misbah was correct with his strategy. He summed up that within 180, the chase is safe, hence went for containment. I think, QG caught off-guard in 1st 9 overs (58) & never made a come back. Scored at 10.5+ in last 11, but that was only par.

 

[Mamoon]

Yeah but then you won't even make the finals. I rather be in the finals rather than on a PIA flight to Lahore.

I'm supporting Islamabad United.

But some people here loves to cry about every single thing.

there is only one guy who is crying FOR EVERY THING his name start from M and finish with N

 

[Syed1]

Mohsin?

 

[Amir]

This is disappointing. Quetta being crowned the inaugural champions would've been a massive PR coup.

Agreed. Best team deserves to win but I think a lot of people (myself included) wanted to see Quetta win to given their underdog status, low valuation (cause of the city they are associated with). It would be nice for Balchostan to have the title.

 

[Firebreaker]

Cheema to turn it around?

 

[Mamoon]

United We Win

First of many PSL titles InshAllah.

 

[Amir]

I'm supporting Islamabad United.

Convenient.

Is that why you are a closet Indian fan too? :Misbah

 

[saeed5646]

Mohsin?

surely you need some clue

 

[ethan hunt]

Ali zafar and fawad khan in the house.

 

[Mamoon]

Convenient.

Is that why you are a closet Indian fan too? :Misbah

I'm from Peshawar but didn't want to follow a team lead by the two Afridis, so Islamabad is the next closest team geographically and they have the classiest team as well.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Afridi

 

[Syed1]

Shaba Cheemay kabhi tou kaam aja

 

[Nostalgic]

How? whats the angle here

A team representing the poorest, most neglected province wins it, a province with an ongoing insurgency. Someone posted a picture of people following the game at Bugti Stadium in Quetta. A victory would've been even better from a PR perspective. Never doubt the power of sport when it comes to such things.

 

[Barragan]

Afridi is right

 

[Amir]

I'm from Peshawar but didn't want to follow a team lead by the two Afridis, so Islamabad is the next closest team geographically and they have the classiest team as well.

Yeah I me too. Islamabad is closer to Toronto than Karachi. Looks like we both winning today.

 

[cricfan14]

Afridi is so brutally honest lol

But probably should've included himself in disappointing batsmen

I see, much like New England patriots winning Superbowl once.

But i think any team winning apart from big cities and power center like karachi and lahore is equally as good.

 

[Firebreaker]

Well thats like expats playing for UAE which you hate

[Firebreaker]

Everyone today is acting like Sarfaraz

 

[marlonbrowndo]

What a knock

 

[Barragan]

Could this be the break needed?

Huge wicket of Smith

 

[asyed]

Finally wicket is coming. But need 2-3 more to come back in the game.

 

[uberkoen]

 

[Pakistani Pace]

 

[MMHS]

IU won their 3 KO matches too easily, that too without Watto. Credit must go to Misbah, Deano & Was.

 

[#GreenRoars]

 

[Indiafan]

Choke on?

 

[Strike Rate]

But some people here loves to cry about every single thing.

Agree some unnecessary criticism instead of constructive criticism

 

[Pakistani Pace]

C'mon quetta

 

[Barragan]

They sent out Russell

Keep the spinners going

 

[Abdul]

Dwayne Smith should have gotten a hundred in the final - nonetheless, he played a very good inning and came back strongly after being criticised due to his performance in the last match.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Afridi is so brutally honest lol

But probably should've included himself in disappointing batsmen

Arry yar he is all rounder, not a batsman

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Russell will probably finish this off

 

[#GreenRoars]

what a way to start the inning.

 

[Big Mac]

The Doctor's surgery hours have finished. Will the medicine he dished out to Quetta prove to be a bitter pill to swallow?

 

[Barragan]

What a rubbish ball

 

[Khyam]

Great Shot and Catch in the Crowd

 

[Lords]

Sir Viv is like "Apno ne mara hume, ghairo me kaha dam tha "

 

[cricfan14]

Arry yar he is all rounder, not a batsman

LOLLLLLLL he is everything that someone cannot criticize at any point

 

[asyed]

Perfect move. They've send Russell to finish it soon.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

147-2 16 Overs.

 

[Firebreaker]

You don't bowl wide to Russell.............

 

[GenericBrand]

Russell is a monster

 

[Barragan]

Cheema you beauty

 

[Khyam]

Cheema Strikes
