What's new

Karachi Kings defeat Islamabad United by 4 wickets to seal semi-final qualification in PSL 5

Shadab 12 off 14 disrupted the flow of the innings.

Lol 14 balls affected 20 overs .
As if he did not score runs off them. Talat strike rate was only 124,a little better and Ingram going at same rate. Sometimes it is better to admit when you wrong. The pitch is sluggish and no one in IU team is playing better than Shadab in the tournament.

Badar really should have been playing.

Genius Misbah with his non - sensical decisions. Is there any statistics for the most number of changes to the playing 11? Islu seem to be changing the order every game. Most of the changes make no sense either.

Badar should have arguably been playing instead of the legendary Asif Ali who has 81 runs in 9 matches, let alone the current situation.

Meanwhile, the invincible team might be knocked out today :inti

Ah but their invincibility was ruined by Shadab who became their best batsman with the highest strike rate of anyone apart from Dunk in the PSL, because he held back the likes of Ingram and Asif Ali. The fact that he only scored at 165+ is the reason Islu have only won 3 games.
 
And Ingram has killed it so far.
I did say at the beginning of thread there would be certain posters who would look doe opportunity to hate on Shadab and Sharjeel, even when others are doing similar or even worst.
 
I can't believe this guy is our coach.

United better get rid of these useless local players. Their overseas players have been carrying these mediocre players for too long now.
 
Why did Islamabad United need 6.5 bowling options today? Musa, Rumman, Akif, Faheem, Zafar, Shadab, Talat. Batting is thin, needed another batsman.

I thought they would go with Saif Badar today and there will be only one of Faheem or Raees but I think they wanted cushion in bowling at the cost of batting.
 
SOES he itritates you by his running. Young and such a laughish run up and poor fitness???

Yes he had troubles with fitness before but he is looking fit but run up still isn’t perfect though much better than the last game.

As I keep saying we suffer from ghulam mentality. Pathetic.
 
136 - a score that Misbah will be mightly proud of.

Not very clever to be worried about bowling when they just lost Munro and Ronchi who are their chief run-scorers.

I do not about that but certainly we have lots of impartial posters who have picked players to hate no matter what, maybe something about them irritated them. Then there is Mamoon who wants to underplayed everything Pakistani. For him Pants and Pandaya are god gifts but Pak youngsters are useless.
 
Asad Shafiq joins Multan Sultans

Lahore, 14 March 2020:

Pakistan international Asad Shafiq joined Multan Sultans’ camp as a silver category player on Saturday.

Quetta Gladiators included Omair bin Yousaf as an emerging player.

Asad’s and Omair’s inclusions were approved by the Event Technical Committee which includes PCB CEO Wasim Khan, Bazid Khan, Marina Iqbal, Sameer Khosa and Dr Sohail Saleem.
 
There's a reason why Shadab Khan is such a poor bowling captain.

You need pace OFF the ball.

Why open with a pacer? A spinner could have really helped.

Anyway, the match is lost for ISLU.

Oh asad shafiq how exciting 😒
 
Not the length to ball to Sharjeel. Musa made the same mistake in his T20 international debut as well against the likes of Warner and Finch

I dont think so anything works on song Sharjeel.
 
And also replying to all negative Pak posters. Of course he would struggle in the internationals but he is the best hitter we have. So have to give him chance and confidence

He can give you flying start , if he can stay in OD for 8 - 10 overs , you will have a good base. Its worth trying him.
 
Sharjeel playing with Pak white ball captain and playing against national Coach’s team, good time to leave an impression

Surely Misbah being the Head Coach and former captain of the franchise and having immense influence within the IU setup can help guide the young captain on such tactics.

You can advise. His on-field decisions have been atrocious.

This Shadab captaincy experiment has to end.
 
From winning to potentially finishing last. Only shameless misbah is capable or achieving this feat. Clown of the highest order.
 
That is just ruthless stuff from Babar and Sharjeel

Lol. Let me guess he can't help from dugout etc. He can't do this or that.

I don't think so .
he has taken some bold decisions and some have paid off cut him some slack its his first experience let him learn.. I'm sure he will come back stronger in next edition

Yeah, the most successful PSL captain and personality is a clown.

What are you then, Khan12? A shameless broken record. :najam

There was no mistake not bowling Spinner first. Spinner would have gone for plenty, as he did in the second over of the match.

Lol. Only misbah is capable of ruining a team and proving again. Done it with Pakistan and now with Islamabad. Shameless person.

He's very animated on the field, another clue that he's not calm enough to think rationally. Runs to the bowler very often - another bad sign.

Bowling changes did not improve throughout the tournament.

We have to bring in someone else as captain next season.
 
Sharjeel
Kami
Babar
Haidar

Best PAK T20 top 4. Can win us at World T20.
 
Sharjeel has been in great touch since last two matches.

Well played.
 
It has been a pathetic T20 match, only thing I looked forward to was Akif bowling and Sharjeel bat.

Sharjeel literally humiliated Islamabad on the same wicket Islamabad United batsmen were struggling to hit.
