Islamabad: Shan Masood*, Abid Ali+, Babar Azam, Ahmed Bashir, Nauman Ali, Raza Hasan, Saad Ali, Shehzad Azam, Faizan Riaz, Shahid Yousuf, Hamza Nadeem

Islamabad win the toss and bat first.

Sharjeel and Fakhar who? Shan Masood 39*(24), striking at almost 170 in a Final.

 

[AssassinatedDevil]

Islamabad won the toss and selected to bat

Islamabad 217/3 (37 overs)
Babar 69 from 69 balls
Shahid Yousuf 29 from 37 balls

 

[Ellipsism]

Back to back centuries now for Babar. 100*(89)

 

[Usman Chadda]

Babar should practice going into high gear against these lalloo-panjus. He is happy accumulating even in domestic cricket.

 

[MMHS]

Why are they snding Saad Ali at 6, when the guy has scored tons or runs at #4 in FC season? Also, he had one time stats like 80/90 in List A, batting at 3/4 - shouldn't come at this stage at all.

 

[Ellipsism]

Asghar is getting phantified going at an ER of 8.5, in comparison even Mohammad Sami only went at 7 RPO.

I’m assuming he’s been pushed down due to Babar’s inclusion.

Can't be - Babar is National #3, so his spot was fixed, while Saad is actually No. 4 and befittingly lefti - it's the 30 years old Fizan Riaz guy with his 34/80 stats taking his spot.

Seniority rules :

 

[MMHS]

I read Saad Ali can't play fast bowling and hardly has any hitting ability - one of the reason of watching the game tonight is to check that.

Absolute rubbish - those rumors are spread to keep the guy out of contention for few more years. Obviously it works, because Ul Haq doesn't have the time to watch domestic players.

 

[MenInG]

Islamabad put on a mamoth 347/4 in 50 overs in the final of the Regional One-Day Cup against Karachi Whites; Powered by Shan Masood's 51, Babar Azam's 105 and Shahid Yousuf's 96*, Islamabad in a dominant position in this game;

 

[BlueDoritos]

Good 105 (95) by Babar and what a knock by Shahid Yusuf 96* (74).

 

[MenInG]

Karachi Whites in trouble with the loss of Khurram Manzoor (7) and Asad Shafiq (22) as they chase 348 to win the final of the Regional One-Day Cup against Islamabad; Karachi Whites 71/2 (13.5/50 ov, target 348) #Cricket

KHI RW 85/2 in 16.0 overs

Fawad playing well, 50 with strike rate of 100+.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Faisal Iqbal also gone.

Islamabad will easily win it from here.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Karachi lost the game when Khurram got out no one else in there team can score hundred with high strike rate

How was he?

 

[DRsohail]

danish to shakel say batsman nazer araha hai

He is one of the top kaarchi talent but he has been made a spinner for unknown reasons.

 

[DRsohail]

Looks like Danish is better bat than all batted above him.

how old he is

 

[DRsohail]

such a good bat he looks,,,,i think he should be under NCA wing.Danish who can bowl SLAO..

 

[asifp]

Fawad Alam, hits a a relatively quick 100 with a hurt hand, spectacular stuff.

 

[daytrader]

Awesome century by Fawad!! Gives them a chance now

 

[DRsohail]

Karachi lost the game when Khurram got out no one else in there team can score hundred with high strike rate

Fawad Alam said hello

 

[asifp]

Fawad Alam - playing an epic knock. Back in the day the Wills Cup final was seen by the whole country. Sad state of affairs!

 

[BlueDoritos]

Fawad Alam is an undisputed ATG of domestic cricket , proved it again today.
Outstanding knock under pressure.

 

[BlueDoritos]

This is Fawad Alam's Highest score in list A.

Best knock of the tournament as well.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Karachi lost the game when Khurram got out no one else in there team can score hundred with high strike rate

Against good bowlers chasing at 6.75 RPO Khurram and Asad failed. Form busted.

 

[BlueDoritos]

What a turn around. Fawad played an AtG knock today. Danish was superb as well.

Under pressure, high required run rate and Fawad has played his best knock of List A.

 

[Titan24]

Danish Aziz performed really well under pressure, might have got few eyes looking at him now

 

[Titan24]

Bashir although has gone for runs but his energy and effort has been pretty impressive

 

[asifp]

EPIC knock from Fawad - got out on a rubbish ball. mistimed it, but he had gotten his team there.

 

[shah_1]

Good to see a yougster performing

 

[ask_analyse_act]

EPIC knock from Fawad - got out on a rubbish ball. mistimed it, but he had gotten his team there.

That is his max strength zero timing shot. With major technical flaw he has survived and dominated in domestics, not the one for ODI.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Against good bowlers chasing at 6.75 RPO Khurram and Asad failed. Form busted.

Shafiq is meh, but Khurram scored 3 consecutive hundreds and he was the most important player for Karachi in this tournament.
Who knew Fawad would bring his best and play an ATG knock in the final which is probably the best knock of the whole tournament.

 

[DRsohail]

Fawad was not thet good in timing etc but he made it count.I can.t see him succeeding in internatiols

 

[asma_cricfan]

Shan, abid, khurram, saad, fawad, iftikhar needs to be included in odi squad.
Hafeez, azhar, malik needs to go.

 

[shah_1]

Fawad was not thet good in timing etc but he made it count.I can.t see him succeeding in internatiols

He should never play ODI cricket

 

[asma_cricfan]

Fawad is a must for 4th position. Pak need a player in middle who holds the inning till 50 overs.

 

[DRsohail]

He should never play ODI cricket

He will also struggle in tests ...140kph short pitch stuff will test him?

 

[asma_cricfan]

Right now in odi, not a single player can stay longer/stabilize the inning. All are vulnerable as we see in NZ series.

I don't see anyone except fawad in the middle to hold the wicket not getting the whole team out in 40 overs.

Muaf kar bhai....He can only be useful in tests and thats too in UAE only.

In nez he would have been walking wicket like Azhar ali who was selected for the same purpose.

Sir FAWAD ALAM......

 

[Markhor]

Shame on our selectors over the years for ignoring a proven and consistent domestic performer like Fawad Alam.

I wouldn't select him for ODIs but how is he not getting a Test gig ?

 

[UN talkz]

Faisal Iqbal also gone.

Islamabad will easily win it from here.

Say it again

 

[in_cutter]

Was this televised?

 

[DeadBall]

Happy for Fawad, however he isn't ODI material. Should be selected for Tests though.

 

[DRsohail]

Everyone giving fawad the credit but i will give it more to Danish.

Fawad weathered the storm and gave Danish a platform to play his strokes

Yes

Yes but without Danish blitz it would have been 20 to 30 runs lost to karachi while Fawad going not out on 150.
