Good luck bro.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Want to see Sohail Khan today, otherwise i wish King may face another defeat.

 

[MMHS]

It's almost elimination match for the 2 most expensive sides. Unfortunately KK lost 2 matches by 2 & 3 runs, but LQ has no excuse (apart from Mustafiz & Yasir, but they opted out of MoHa & stuck with Azhar). Probably, 'll watch this game, after the U19 match.

Yep, this is almost like a QF.

Lahore's bowling attack is useless. No way they can win from here. Shocked they dropped Zia ul-Haq.

 

[hur rizvi]

SUpporting Karachi, Lahore apart from Umar have looked below average.

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Both sides working hard to secure fifth spot.

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

KARACHI needs Shahzaib and Sohail. No more sialkoti yaari of nauman and usama mir

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Let's see Malik will opt Sohail Khan or Bilawal his sailkot mate.

 

[Bullet Drive]

You don't rate Usama Mir

 

[Bullet Drive]

Bangash is in the team bc he is emerging..... second emerging is Mir

 

[Lords]

I always support Karachi so go Kings.

But both the teams were supposed to be big but they have shown very little dominance. At least today one of them will win

 

[Madplayer]

My team Karachi has been disappointing. Bad tournament for malik so far. Hope he pulls todays game off.

You need Sher Khan (Sohail Khan)

 

[#GreenRoars]

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat???? Azhar handed over captaincy to Bravo Rameez says it's a selfless decision.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Gayle is back.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Amir is struggling with groin injury

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Selfless decision by Azhar to rest himself. Have a feeling Lahore will win. Akmal must come at 3 though

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Minor injury to Amir so well finally see Mir Hamza

 

[#GreenRoars]

 

[#GreenRoars]

Today Sher Khan is playing so Kings will win this one.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

My boy Mir Hamza playing today

 

[arehaan]

Seriously bad decision by Malik to drop iftikhar

I can't see the logic of playing Nauman ahead of iftikhar especially when you need him to get all the practice before t20 World Cup. Hate how we are grooming the younger players serious dis service to Pak cricket

 

[#GreenRoars]

My boy Mir Hamza playing today

And my boy Sohail Khan is playing Win for Kings is confirmed now.

 

[MenInG]

good game hopefully

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Minor injury to Amir so well finally see Mir Hamza

This is face saving to drop

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

And my boy Sohail Khan is playing Win for Kings is confirmed now.

Well I would pray that we win here today.... I mean the opposition do not have Azhar Ali who practically gives the opposition 10-15 runs from his captaincy alone.

Qalandars are strong today, would be an interesting match.

 

[asadee]

Malik opening

 

[#GreenRoars]

Dropped.

 

[Passionate Observer]

Hopefully YouTube stream works fine today.

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat???? Azhar handed over captaincy to Bravo Rameez says it's a selfless decision.

He is drop. Simple

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Shobby taking responsibility here...

 

[Khyam]

Nauman dropped. Malik opening interesting move. Potential opener for Asia Cup and WT20?

Good placement by Malik 4 runs.

 

[Passionate Observer]

And my boy Sohail Khan is playing Win for Kings is confirmed now.

He's not a boy but a "sandaa".

 

[Asif321]

no cable today

 

[Passionate Observer]

Nauman dropped. Malik opening interesting move. Potential opener for Asia Cup and WT20?

Good placement by Malik 4 runs.

He's playing.

 

[timeflies]

Looking forward to finally seeing Mir Hamza bowl. Heard a lot about him around here.

 

[Khyam]

He's playing.

I meant Nauman dropped on Zero by Cooper.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Ehsan Adil is a good bowler, has added pace to his repertoire and gets that added lift due to his height. I pace conducive pitches he could be a handful.

 

[Passionate Observer]

Sorry thought you were referring to him being dropped from playing 11.

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Nauman dropped. Malik opening interesting move. Potential opener for Asia Cup and WT20?

Good placement by Malik 4 runs.

Sialkoti lads are playing

 

[#GreenRoars]

Shobby opening today

 

[razabbas]

wow great crowd coming in

 

[Passionate Observer]

Bravo is the MOST incompetent bowler/batsman is the entire universe, good for nothing, a complete joke of a cricketer, can't see an iota of utility he offers besides his dance moves, total waste of franchise money.

 

[Passionate Observer]

Two timid mental midgets at the crease, can't see them pushing the foot on accelerator in PP overs, could hardly score 40 in PowerPlay.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Too many slow deliveries.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Finally a

Bro I don't know what you see in Nauman Anwar but I personally do not see him remotely international material to be honest, I think Khurram Manzoor would've done better in the five matches he has played up till now.

 

[Passionate Observer]

How tall is Nauman? 5'2"?

 

[Passionate Observer]

@TalenSpotterPk

Bro I don't know what you see in Nauman Anwar but I personally do not see him remotely international material to be honest, I think Khurram Manzoor would've done better in the five matches he has played up till now.

He knows nothing, I can recognize talent and ability better than him.

 

[pacefan]

So now Nauman fans! He's more pathetic than A.S, way more pathetic than him, and yet some PP members are calling him the next great. Get a life!

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

He knows nothing, I can recognize talent and ability better than him.

isn't that going a bit too overboard

 

[#GreenRoars]

2 chances for Nauman, now hit a century mate.

 

[Khyam]

Six by Nauman

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

If Nauman doesn't make it count now it would be utterly disappointing

 

[#GreenRoars]

[MENTION=138980]TalentSpotterPk[/MENTION]

Bro I don't know what you see in Nauman Anwar but I personally do not see him remotely international material to be honest, I think Khurram Manzoor would've done better in the five matches he has played up till now.

Well, he as regressed. But in future this kid will come good. I rated Mukhtar higher than him and i still do, his hand eye co-ordination is good and i don't give a damn to technique in T20 game.

 

[Passionate Observer]

isn't that going a bit too overboard

Its not going overboard but rather being realistic, something he can't perceive 'cause of his prejudiced nature, he always hypes nothing cricketers with no talent or ability, he's just a spin off of Bullet Drive nothing else.

 

[Passionate Observer]

Technique is everything my roora, a batsman with a proper technique will come good 9 out of 10 times as compared to someone with no technical discipline.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Good shot

 

[#GreenRoars]

Asad Shafiq or Sharjeel in T20 as opener?
Pick one

 

[Khyam]

Huge crowd waiting to get in.

 

[TNA]

Don't know why but if Nauman was playing in Quetta or Islamabad he may have fared far better there. Something to do with expectations.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Crowd is massive today. Probably is gonna be a full house by the end of this innings.

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

2 chances by Qalandars and 4 chances by Malik for nauman. Now pls hit 70+ runs

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Yes. 16000 capacity

 

[#GreenRoars]

 

[Lords]

They heard me, they have made Bravo the captain.

LQ guys, are you reading this?

 

[#GreenRoars]

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

What will be good score against Qalanders?

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

2 chances by Qalandars and 4 chances by Malik for nauman. Now pls hit 70+ runs

1 more chance by Qalanders. Dropped by umar

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

where art thou fans ????? This is LQ vs KK man !!!!

 

[Abdullah719]

where art thou fans ????? This is LQ vs KK man !!!!

Battle of the minnows.

 

[#GreenRoars]

After 3 chances, finally

 

[Adnan Siddiqui]

Nauman needed 4 dropped catches to make 34

 

[#GreenRoars]

What will be good score against Qalanders?

On this pitch, 180+.

 

[Abdullah719]

Nauman really struggled but this is a pretty decent start. The rest have gotta carry on strongly.

 

[Passionate Observer]

Asad Shafiq or Sharjeel in T20 as opener?
Pick one

Shafiq doesn't have the power game to merit his selection in T20s, Sharjeel is a hack.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Good crowd today.
