Islamabad United vs Quetta Gladiators | PSL - 9th match | Rawalpindi | Feb 27, 2020 | Match Thread

[minamino]

It’s the last over of the WT20 final.

Naseem Shah’s going to bowl.

8 needed, one wicket left.

And he bowls the ball and he yorks him.

An inswinging yorker at 150 kph.


Imagine if this happens....

Acha script hai just like Patiala House

 

[Mueez]

Acha script hai just like Patiala House

Lmao daydreaming.

 

[Mueez]

What a shot by Roy.

 

[Hasan123]

Need to get Roy out asap.

 

[Hasan123]

Ruman Raees was becoming a regular in LO before his injury, now he is struggling. Such a shame.

 

[minamino]

I never liked Rumman tbh. He looked pretty average every time he played for Pakistan

 

[Omer2002]

roya chappairing it literallyyy...Watson needs to join in

 

[minamino]

I think this is going to be last PSL of Watson, Ronchi and Sammy.

 

[Hasan123]

Watson gone.

 

[Omer2002]

hold fire guys...Shazz is here so sab baaaaaaghooo

 

[Mueez]

Poor shot by Watson.

 

[Hasan123]

Jason Roy is one of the few elite players in their prime in the PSL. Fans will be desperate to see him play.

 

[Hawkeye]

Musa bowling with fire.

 

[Omer2002]

erm shazzi first balll has he gone mad...

 

[Omer2002]

shazzy showing shadoo who is the boss....

 

[Hasan123]

Pathetic from Shehzad.

 

[Hasan123]

Need some dot balls to put pressure on QG.

 

[Omer2002]

shazzy being shazzzy after 2 sixes you rotate the strike am i not right...quetta are atleast two batters short

 

[Hawkeye]

Pathetic Shehzad. )

Shaba Shaddy.

 

[m.shah]

Shahzad lol

 

[Kashmirilion]

Wth just happened with shezzy

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

alas shezzy being shezzy hea
absolutely brainless

 

[Mueez]

Hahahahahahahhahahaha Shehzad.

 

[m.shah]

shazzy showing shadoo who is the boss....

Yes in some style

 

[Hawkeye]

shazzy showing shadoo who is the boss....

Now who's the boss.

 

[Hasan123]

The most important players for QG at the crease.

 

[Mueez]

That ball spun a lot too.

Well done Shadab, well done.

 

[Mueez]

Glad to see how Shadab is playing and thriving as a captain.

 

[Hasan123]

Other than Babar no batter is a guarantee to start for the World T20, Azam Khan is playing himself in contention. If he can have a good tournament surely he will be in the next T20 squad.

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

why there's no crowd noise ?
do they mute it???
weird

 

[Kashmirilion]

Did some one say Azam can't play offside.

 

[Hasan123]

Shadab Khan so badly wants to be a star. It's a shame he hasn't worked on his game because if he did he would have his wish.

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

That ball spun a lot too.

Well done Shadab, well done.

that was nothing special...it was typical shehzad dismissal
he has been absolutely rubbish..
with the bowl...

 

[Hawkeye]

Have to say.

Azam seems to have a high batting IQ.

 

[minamino]

Want Azam to give a phainta of lifetime to Shadab like he did in the first match.

 

[Hasan123]

Azam Khan get out shot for a single is predictable. Needs to develop another route as international bowlers will work that out fast. Don't doubt that he can clear the fence though.

 

[Justcrazy]

Roy needs to explode here

 

[Mueez]

that was nothing special...it was typical shehzad dismissal
he has been absolutely rubbish..
with the bowl...

Nothing special?

It was a display of how to outsmart the batsman.

 

[Hawkeye]

Roy needs to explode here

Careful.

 

[minamino]

Azam is better than Haider because he plays risk-free cricket.

 

[Mueez]

Careful.

) )

 

[Hasan123]

I thought Azam Khan was rubbish and only being selected due to his dad. But he does have something about him.

 

[Hawkeye]

Who can beat ISLU going forward?

Answer:

NOBODY.

 

[Mueez]

I thought Azam Khan was rubbish and only being selected due to his dad. But he does have something about him.

Me too, however he has surprised us all with his batting.

I hope he can carry on like this.

As I write this, he gets out...

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

Nothing special?

It was a display of how to outsmart the batsman.

so getting a brainless batsmen like shehzad out is been called smart now in Pp?

 

[Justcrazy]

Gladiattors batting is not that deep.

 

[Justcrazy]

84 . 3

10 overs

 

[Hasan123]

Me too, however he has surprised us all with his batting.

I hope he can carry on like this.

As I write this, he gets out...

Hopefully he can. He has lost weight so he has has a determination about him.

 

[Hasan123]

Come on Shadab. Get the fast bowlers on to Sarfraz.

 

[Hawkeye]

You don't bowl spinners vs Sarfraz.

The only bowlers he can play against!!

 

[Justcrazy]

Big innings for sarfaraz here , can he get his team home , a lot on stake for him.

 

[Khan12]

Shadab Khan so badly wants to be a star. It's a shame he hasn't worked on his game because if he did he would have his wish.

It's never too late specially he's young. Let's hope he works hard.

 

[Khan12]

Azam is better than Haider because he plays risk-free cricket.

Haider batting technique, defensive game and shot range is miles better then Azam.

 

[Justcrazy]

Required rate is over 10 , they need to make sure they get a boundary every over

 

[Mueez]

Cameramen should stop filming girls, imo.

 

[Mueez]

Roy departs...

Game over for QG?

 

[Hasan123]

You don't bowl spinners vs Sarfraz.

The only bowlers he can play against!!

Best captain since IK losing to Misbah again.

 

[Justcrazy]

Jason gone

 

[Mueez]

Best captain since IK losing to Misbah again.

Misbah as tactician >>> Sarfraz as tactician.

 

[Hasan123]

Sarfraz is an absolutely useless LO player. People talk about his strike rotation but he has no idea on how to play pace. Also his shocking fitness levels mean he can't bat for long periods. He isn't good enough to open or bat in the lower order. He literally has no use in LO and some people want him back. Not even gonna mention his ovverated captaincy. 1 good thing Misbah did is getting rid of this average cricketer.

 

[Hasan123]

Misbah as tactician >>> Sarfraz as tactician.

Spot on.

 

[Hasan123]

QG should have brought Cutting in now. He is a good striker of the ball.

 

[Hasan123]

Bring the pacers on to kill the game off.

 

[Mueez]

Don’t know why but I just cannot like Nawaz as a cricketer...

A true definition of bits and pieces player.

 

[Hasan123]

Why bring Faheem on?

 

[Justcrazy]

69 from 41 balls , Match likely to go down the wire.

 

[Hasan123]

Faheem should make way for Badar or Rizwan, Steyn should replace Ingram or Malan who play the same role anyway.

 

[Mueez]

Faheem’s got a nice haircut atleast

 

[Hawkeye]

Best captain since IK losing to Misbah again.

That's the usual for him.

ISLU is just too strong for other other teams.

 

[Hawkeye]

Misbah as tactician >>> Sarfraz as tactician.

Anyone who doubts this needs to get their brains checked.

 

[Hasan123]

Commentary better.
PSL back in Pakistan
Competitive games


Just need to find a way to get rid of the oldies, have better quality of overseas players and then you can PSL is the 2nd best league in the world.

So frustrating seeing some of these oldies hog spots.

 

[Hasan123]

That's the usual for him.

ISLU is just too strong for other other teams.

QG are still a strong team. Multan look good as well. Won't be easy to win.

 

[Mueez]

Sarfraz batting well here.

Next step should be to replace these oldies by some elite T20 players like Jofra Archer, Ben Stokes, Maxwell etc.

 

[Omer2002]

this could still be close

 

[Justcrazy]

Sarfaraz batting well , can he take his team to win here

 

[Mueez]

Multan’s and Rawalpindi’s stadium are better than Lahore and Karachi, in my opinion.

The Hundred will be far better than PSL. We can only hope to be the third best league.

 

[Mueez]

The Hundred will be far better than PSL. We can only hope to be the third best league.

The Hundred has the potential to be the best league.

It is a great concept which could inspire many youngsters to play cricket.

 

[Hawkeye]

The Hundred will be far better than PSL. We can only hope to be the third best league.

It'll be as poor as T20Blast.

PSL is only going to get better as more names will come to PAK.

2nd spot isn't going anywhere. Not bad at all. Can't dethrone IPL obviously.
