Karachi Kings (236/6) defeat Multan Sultans (234/3) by four wickets in a high-scoring thriller in PSL X

[Justcrazy]

SIXXXX

Karachi win by 4 wickets.

 

[Nasty Naz]

One heck of a win for Karachi. First entertaining match of the PSL.

 

[RyanRyan10]

@Rana has had the last laugh again

@Devadwal

 

[Barragan]

That was excellent

Good to see Khusdil play a good part in it as well

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Jordan has single handledly consumed 25% of Pakistans six quota for the year himself in one match.

 

[PakFan2010]

Multan owner looks very upset, hahahah.

 

[Rana]

Thank you Shan Masood for 0 (1)

Massive contribution!

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

After two one-sided games we finally got a thriller.

Gonna be back to one-sided games tomorrow though.

 

[Rana]

Bruv 235 chased

 

[PakFan2010]

Ali Tareen said Warner is not a team man.

 

[Rana]

Ohhhhhhh Moooooltaaaaan Soooooltaaaan

 

[Nikhil_cric]

On this pitch , Rizwan's knock was a -ve impact knock.

Just not a T20 batter.

Bracewell and Vince were elite.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Subpar on this pitch. Started way too slow.

Ends justify the means. Without his three sixes in that over I question if KK would have won. That was the turning point for me.

 

[Rana]

Ali Tareen said Warner is not a team man.

He is a man of God now!

Remember what Morgan said after 2019 World Cup win?

 

[Greenstorm]

Subpar on this pitch. Started way too slow.

He is Darryl Mitchell type. Always starts slow. Should bat at 4.

 

[Rana]

What a day

Zindabad PSL!

Yeah. Given the context, I agree.

Only reason MS even got 236 was because of 22 extras

That was still very good for Pak standards. He was defeated by Vince hundred not Shan Masood's

 

[khyberlion]

Rizwan 100 was the reason Multan lost. He was around 60 odd of 50 balls which cost them the game ultimately.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

I'm glad Sikander Bakht didn't interview Rizwan in English. Would have given everyone a brain aneurysm

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Rizwan interview taken off air by Sky sports.

 

[Darkrai]

Vin and Khushdil are both ex Sultan players

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

It's a bit ironic that MS got put down by three former MS players: Vince, Khushdil and then Abbas Afridi with the finishing touch.

 

[Kianig89]

MS missed the trick by getting Shan out on duck, should have had let him play 10-15 deliveries

[Ahmed216]

Brilliant knock from Sultana.
I m convinced he's still one of the best in Pak. Haters can enjoy the victory

 

[Rana]

KK got it right by making Rizwan play 10 overs out of the 20

 

[Greenstorm]

Thank you Shan Masood for 0 (1)

Massive contribution!

That was actually match winning contribution from him. They can easily place Khushdil at 4 and play someone like Qasim etc.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Ali Tareen said Warner is not a team man.

LMAO Ali Tareen being made to look like a clown in the first game. This is why you should avoid making stupid, attention-seeking statements like these.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

I don't think you can call it brilliant. No harm in calling it good. But brilliant is how Vince batted.

 

[Kianig89]

BTW there are definitely 33 better players than Shan Masood available

 

[Nikhil_cric]

That was still very good for Pak standards. He was defeated by Vince hundred not Shan Masood's

Fair.

 

[RyanRyan10]

scoring 10 rpo facing 52.5% of balls if whole innings on this wicket is just nit good enough. MS also had momentum with KK bowlers providing plenty of extras during the start of the innings.

MS lost just 3 wickets while Karachi lost 6 yet the latter won. The strategy of "keeping wickets in hand" doesn't work in modern day cricket.

 

[Kianig89]

Good thing is Warner will be ruthless so only couple of chances left for IELTS holder Shan

 

[PakFan2010]

Seifert, Warner and Vince is the best top 3 in the tournament.

 

[Greenstorm]

Ali Tareen said Warner is not a team man.

Woke Ali Tareen seems to dislike badmash Warner types. They need a badmash opener alongside Rizwan instead of Shai Hope.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Ali Tareen is a nepo-baby who has done nothing but enjoy the fruits of his father's success. The fact that he had the gall to needlessly take a shot at one of the greatest white-ball batters of the modern era (if not all-time) was always going to backfire badly and blow up in his face.

 

[Josh]

Rizwan interview taken off air by Sky sports.

Yep what did he say
Dekhiye ji yeh massive learn hai ?

 

[Kianig89]

Each team has played 1 game and QG looked the strongest at present

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Woke Ali Tareen seems to dislike badmash Warner types. They need a badmash opener alongside Rizwan instead of Shai Hope.

The problem is not with him being woke. The problem is him not giving due respect to a batsman who has accomplished more in his career than any active Pakistani batter.

 

[Kianig89]

The gulf between Pakistan players and even 3rd degree International players is huge

 

[Greenstorm]

That was still very good for Pak standards. He was defeated by Vince hundred not Shan Masood's

No not good enough. Pakistan's standard can't improve if we persist with players like him.

 

[Rana]

The gulf between Pakistan players and even 3rd degree International players is huge

And 3rd degree Pakistan cricket fans and understanding the modern game too.

 

[Rana]

Everyone looks unhappy

Were they hoping for their golden boy to win today and give Naqvi a hard time?

 

[Rana]

Rizwan boycotted the ceremony? What a coward!

 

[PakFan2010]

How do PCB have so many sponsors and awards?

Well done to their commercial team.

 

[Ahmed216]

No not good enough. Pakistan's standard can't improve if we persist with players like him.

No harm in finding better alternatives. That is already an ongoing thing I guess.

 

[Mohraheem]

Vince 96* from 41

You frekin oracle

Chacha should “learn”

 

[Mohraheem]

poor fumble by ifti allows the batters to come back for 2
@Mohraheem

He didn’t get an over nor batting … he was fielding all day. That’s how we should treat him

 

[Rana]

They never lose their filth.

You should know that well ya filthy soor

 

[PakFan2010]

Warner "Multan had lots of wickets in hand".

Rizwan should be ashamed.

 

[Mohraheem]

Oh flip dot ball. Choke seems on.

choke only happens when u have Chacha on the team

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

My word, the bowling from Multan was absolutely dreadful, even by Pakistani standards these days.

 

[Mohraheem]

Ifti the bogeyman pathetic

He needs to learn

 

[Mohraheem]

Nah man this Chacha is a joke. Should be deported.

Thank you

 

[DeadlyVenom]

choke only happens when u have Chacha on the team

Chacha could have won the game for sultan. Shameful from Rizwan. He is worried Chacha may take the captaincy from him so deliberately misusing him.

 

[Mohraheem]

Brilliant knock from Sultana.
I m convinced he's still one of the best in Pak. Haters can enjoy the victory

Get rid of Chacha you will next 20 psl in India Australia and England

 

[Mohraheem]

Chacha is team virus..

 

[DeadlyVenom]

We deride Pak batting and Khushdil was awful for a lot of the game but credit to him for tonking 3 sixes on the trot under pressure. He deserves praise for that.

 

[Rana]

[RyanRyan10]

@Devadwal

Will post Vince's t20i strike rate

 

[topspin]

Sad day for the Rizwan fan club and Ali Tareen's biggest fan.

This game should serve a lesson to all fans that you don't judge an innings until both teams have batted on it.

Rizwan's ton may have looked "decent" at the halfway mark but the reality is Vince made it look so average because it was. Let's not forget he can't even get close to any of England's white ball teams.

Rizwan's scored his runs 50% slower than the one played by the Englishman, so the bottom line is we've been treated to another match losing innings from Rizwan. I hope the Rizwan fan club enjoyed this moment while it lasted.

 

[followed]

Zimbo and rizwan learn always do that. They have lost Pakistan so many matches with their pathetic approach.

Rizwan learn should be ashamed of his pathetic innings.

 

[Sarmad]

Where is the crowd?

Ticket prices were clearly too high.

No. The prices are lower this time.lower than last year

 

[Sarmad]

Rizwan isn't the issue in Psl, it's the team itself. The team is beyond pathetic, their team last year was stronger fam.

Shai hope is washed, KG has always been rubbish in PSL, Chacha is useless especially now given his age, Willey is finished.

All depends on Usman Khan the Bradman of PSL, Bracewell and Rizwan who isn't bad in PSL. He was rubbish last year in PSL, but was good in the editions before.

Hence he can play at a quick rate in PSL.

Multan looks a weaker side this time specially their bowling

 

[Sarmad]

Karachi bowlers gave 20 runs in wide balls. Their line was not upto the mark.

But it was unbelievable come back by karachi

 

[Sarmad]

I'm shocked on Khushdil Shah. Was not expecting such a mature inning from him.

He has improved after his return to the team on NZ tour. Even in NZ he was the most consistent performer after Agha

 

[The Bald Eagle]

The highlights

 

[Devadwal]

On this pitch , Rizwan's knock was a -ve impact knock.

Just not a T20 batter.

Bracewell and Vince were elite.

It was Gold innings for Pakistan standard and we all know what is Pakistan standard .

Let's compared his runs to the another Pakistan batters

Usman khan - 19(15) strike rate - 126

Shan Masood 0(1)

Arafat minhas 10(7) strike rate - 142

Khush Dil shah 60(37) - strike rate 162


Rizwan is competing with Pakistan players to select for The Pakistan team and he is ahead of them .

He is not World beater yet comfortably better than his Pakistan counterpart.

Compared bracewell , Vince, Finn Allen to World best team in T20 Cricket not with Pakistan players .

More Pakistan player's performance

Saim Ayub - 50(38) strike rate -131

Tullebaaz Haris (WK) -13 (8)

Tullebaaz Hasan Nawaz - 41(32) strike rate - 128
Saud shakeel - 59(42) strike rate - 140

So rizwan is comfortably better than all of Pakistan tullebaaz

[Devadwal]

But learn ho gaya?

Nahi double century ho gyi

 

[BouncerGuy]

LOL... rizwan scored 100 people still crying while the tulla show went flop but celebrated.

Although James Vince's inning overshadowed rizwan's innings. it was a masterclass. If a team scores 235 and failed to defend it, the fault is bowling actually..
