Karachi Kings defeat Islamabad United by five wickets in 14th match of PSL 5

[Rellu_Katta]

crappppppp

no Styen-Gun and Babar-Bulldozer

 

[Pakpak]

Walton iftikhar Imad ....horrible line up. Babar is a big wicket.

 

[Syed1]

Yaaaar Bobby is having a really bad PSL, aek hi tou batsman tha humaray pass

 

[Green Patriot]

I was waiting since forever to watch Babar vs Steyn

 

[AdamM97]

Please tell me whose fault was this run out... it better not be that fat pehlwan Sharjeel... should have been banned indefinitely.

Nah. Babar wanted the single.

 

[MRSN]

that shot from Sharjeel really reminded me of his peak

 

[Rellu_Katta]

Let your hate eclipse your judgement of Shadab Khan . . but Pakistan has never seen a better fielder . . and his batting is decent and improving . .

Be objective . . talk about his bowling . . where he is going wrong . . but don't let your biases cloud your judgement over things that he does well and where he does bring value!

its mind blogging how he has deterioted on his bowling.. maybe the confidence from batting and fielding will help him improve his bowling.... need him to lead the spin attack

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Meanwhile what a start from Steyn

Steyn showing us what genuine class pace bowling looks like.

 

[Titan24]

Consecutive fours from Sharjeel

 

[OhTwadi]

Really hope Sharjeel will never play in a Pakistan shirt again. I think we have many better options in Kami, Babar, Fakhar etc.

 

[PakPremi]

Hoping Sharjeel returns to his good form again, joy to watch

 

[watson367]

Shaddy making a case for T20 Captaincy

O Bhai Pak team captains can’t be changed every 4 months

 

[MRSN]

man Sharjeel is in good mood tonight

 

[Lonewarrior]

Please tell me whose fault was this run out... it better not be that fat pehlwan Sharjeel... should have been banned indefinitely.

its the pehlwan ....

 

[topspin]

Sharjeel has still got it. Just needs match fitness and time at the crease.

 

[OhTwadi]

Sharjeel may be a great bat, but his fitness standard are all but good

 

[MRSN]

O Bhai Pak team captains can’t be changed every 4 months

at least we have better candidates than showrfaraz

 

[Titan24]

Yaaaar Bobby is having a really bad PSL, aek hi tou batsman tha humaray pass

Time to let him go and be the captain atleast some other team.

 

[Dagestani_Eagle]

its the pehlwan ....

Not his fault

 

[PakPremi]

Really hope Sharjeel will never play in a Pakistan shirt again. I think we have many better options in Kami, Babar, Fakhar etc.

Lost all faith when you mentioned Kami

 

[Syed1]

He was banned for 2 years and still couldn't get his fitness right.... he could be the second coming of Viv Richards but doesn't deserve to play for the national side because of his lack of work ethic.

 

[Rellu_Katta]

Sharjeel really needs to up his fitness.. he will be an asset

 

[AdamM97]

Sharjeel has still got it. Just needs match fitness and time at the crease.

Meh. He’s just another Fakhar. Inconsistent and overhyped.

 

[Khan12]

What a finish from Shadab. 54 off 31 and his second PSL 50 in PSL 5

Not a bad effort from a tail ender.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Steyn first over was on the mark

 

[Pakpak]

Lost all faith when you mentioned Kami

I know right Kamran has horrific numbers at this level internationally.

 

[NauV]

Shadab has improved.

But you can't rely on him to hit at will in international cricket. Has a limited range of shots but not bad for our standards.

Can be more useful when no pressure to score fast.

I agree . . and I am not saying he has become a world beater! but I can bet my bottom dollar he is already more effective than an Asif Ali in international cricket . . and defintiely Faheem Ashraf!

He is improving . . he has improved . . it's evident! and that warrants credit . . that's all I am saying!

Stupid comments like . . oh he is showing his poor batting skills after he misses 2 balls . . then when he hits a 6, moving on to say oh mickey mouse bowlers . . and then when he hits Amir and Jordan, move on to say oh . . just getting lucky . . don't look too much into these PSL knocks . . he got dropped in the last game . .

Like . . downright stupid!

 

[Rellu_Katta]

waow waow woosh.. Sharjeel "Gorden Greendige" Khan... u beauty

 

[OhTwadi]

I think Shadab can be our number 4 after Hafeez, Malik Era

 

[Pakpak]

Meh. He’s just another Fakhar. Inconsistent and overhyped.

He did very well in Australia in his last series and England. But even if his past wasn't the issue his fitness isn't the best.

 

[AdamM97]

If Shadab can fix his bowling issues, it would be great.

 

[minamino]

Sharjeel didn't really work on his fitness while he was banned.

 

[Titan24]

Asif Ali with overthrows

 

[Titan24]

If Shadab can fix his bowling issues, it would be great.

Just going from a lean patch will be fine. Look at Kuldeep Yadav, he is in much worse from for over a year

 

[Syed1]

Motto got home in time

 

[Titan24]

Not a bad effort from a tail ender.

 

[OhTwadi]

Only two maidens in psl history.... Wow

 

[AdamM97]

He did very well in Australia in his last series and England. But even if his past wasn't the issue his fitness isn't the best.

He has been out of the team for a while now. Not dedicating time and energy to his fitness is enough to understand that he’s not interested in making a come-back. I hope Pakistan don’t let him back in the team. We’ve already suffered enough due to Fakhar and his inconsistency. Imagine both of them.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sharjeel making the most of his outing tonight so far

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Sharjeel didn't really work on his fitness while he was banned.

These Pakistanis lose their hitting ability once they lose weight. I guess Sharjeel didn't want to take that risk

 

[minamino]

Dale Steyn has lost it now.

 

[AdamM97]

Just going from a lean patch will be fine. Look at Kuldeep Yadav, he is in much worse from for over a year

I hope so for the sake of Pakistan.

 

[Syed1]

Shot by fatty

 

[Lonewarrior]

this short of sharjeel reminds me, vintage veru short.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Meh. He’s just another Fakhar. Inconsistent and overhyped.

He's miles better than Fakhar. Just our luck that our best players turn out to be cheats.

 

[minamino]

Steyn has lost it in T20s ever since he got phainta from AB in IPL.

 

[Syed1]

Is that Naidoo lady a commentator in this match?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Hales

 

[Pakpak]

He has been out of the team for a while now. Not dedicating time and energy to his fitness is enough to understand that he’s not interested in making a come-back. I hope Pakistan don’t let him back in the team. We’ve already suffered enough due to Fakhar and his inconsistency. Imagine both of them.

He's a lot better than Fakhar. Like I said in his last two series he was fantastic. As for fitness yes he's not interested in becoming fit. I'd be very surprised to see him in the national side.

 

[topspin]

Meh. He’s just another Fakhar. Inconsistent and overhyped.

He's nothing like Fakhar. He's Pakistan best striker of short pitched bowling, whereas Fakhar when its banger short of a length.

 

[minamino]

Sharjeel strike rotation is worse than Asif Ali. Score 20 runs so far, two fours and two sixes.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

They're making the most of the powerplay here

 

[Lonewarrior]

Is that Naidoo lady a commentator in this match?

yes.

 

[Darkrai]

United bowling sucks.

 

[Dagestani_Eagle]

This year PSL is awesome. Batting Paradise

 

[topspin]

He did very well in Australia in his last series and England. But even if his past wasn't the issue his fitness isn't the best.

He was superb against an Australian attack consisting of Starc and Cummins. Averaged 50 at a SR of circa 120.

 

[minamino]

Musa should be nowhere near to Pakistan team.

 

[Hawkeye]

Sharjeel still has it!!

 

[Titan24]

146 kph from Musa

 

[Dagestani_Eagle]

Musa should be nowhere near to Pakistan team.

He reminds me of bhatti but just faster

 

[Deewana Mastana]

When is Alan Wilkins coming over?

Rhodes has gone and Butcher has come in today.

 

[Titan24]

This year PSL is awesome. Batting Paradise

True. Glad all cricket fans are enjoying it

 

[Syed1]

Musa might be a better batsman than bowler

 

[PakPremi]

Did not Shadab bowl well last match or one b4 that.

 

[Rana]

Sharjeel not scared to take on anything short. Love it!

 

[Syed1]

It's flying off Hales bat

 

[Slim]

PSL in Pakistan is just double fun. Cricket is just love!

 

[topspin]

Bottom of the bat there by Sharjeel

 

[Slim]

He reminds me of bhatti but just faster

Same height prolly thats why.

 

[watson367]

Terrible bowling by Musa

 

[topspin]

Don't throw it away Sharjeel.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

He reminds me of bhatti but just faster

Bhatti was 145kph when he first arrived on the scene for Pakistan back in 2013.

 

[Hawkeye]

WTHHH FAHEEEM

Don't serve that to Sharjeel THE BOSSS!!!! He's gonna butcher us tonight!!

 

[Slim]

Bottom of the bat there by Sharjeel

Looking shaky since the first match. Dont see him coming back in the national team if he keeps this up. Also shocked on how this guy hasnt lost a KG even after getting banned for a considerable amount of time.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Is this going to be Sharjeel's repentance of what he did 3 years ago?

 

[Titan24]

Faheem welcomed with a six by Sharjeel

 

[PakPremi]

Two destructive batsmen on crease, ISB will need to get rid of one quick.

 

[Darkrai]

The Sharjeel we were all waiting for?

 

[minamino]

He reminds me of bhatti but just faster

Bhatti was pretty quick as well.

 

[Rana]

Brutal hits
