Lahore Qalandars (180/9) qualify for the Play-Offs with a 21-run win over Multan Sultans (159/7)

[MenInG]

Clash of the titans?

Multan who are leading the points table will need a win now to show that they are capable of holding their own but the rampant Qalandars are on a roll.

Lahore bowlers are ruling the roost and Rizwan and Co will need to pull something special out of the bag tonight.

 

[Firebat]

Have a feeling Multan might pull one out the bag

 

[jattafridi]

Good luck both teams

 

[Firebat]

Lahore Qalandars win the toss and opt to bat first

 

[Firebat]

Lahore unchanged, 2 changes for Multan:

Pollard for Brathwaite
Sameen for Akeal

 

[PakPremi]

Good crowd.

 

[Rana]

With Rizwan, a 3 hour game will be 4 hours

 

[Rana]

Yeah just casually waste 5 minutes on the review

 

[Omer2002]

What a pathetic shot...

 

[Saj]

Fakhar plays one of those shots that he plays too often.

Schoolboy batting.

 

[PakPremi]

With Rizwan, a 3 hour game will be 4 hours

Imagine if Amir was playing and limping about too during his bowling.

 

[AAli98]

Surprised Shaheen imran Khan never come in at 3

 

[jattafridi]

Fakhar gone

Now I am supporting multan sultan

 

[Rana]

Clearly Fakhar doesn’t want to waste time and just get on with it

 

[PakPremi]

Fakhar sometimes is sleeping early on.

 

[Rana]

Rizwan puts himself down at 2 because he’s too scared to face Shaheen first ball

 

[Rana]

Smash this team Lahore

 

[Saj]

No idea why Khushdil was given the second over.

Smashed to all parts.

 

[Rana]

No idea why Khushdil was given the second over.

Smashed to all parts.

Rizwan tactics

 

[Rana]

Sameen yips

 

[Firebat]

A 10 ball over, Sameen should be playing in the Hundred

 

[PakPremi]

Sameen trying to annoy Rana by wasting more ��

 

[Rana]

Don’t understand why he just doesn’t open with Ihsanullah?

 

[PakPremi]

Multan do not have the bowling to win PSL.

 

[Rana]

Wow Anwar Ali is slow

 

[Rana]

Multan do not have the bowling to win PSL.

They don’t have the batting either

 

[Rana]

20 years old )

 

[PakPremi]

Batting with Rizwan, Russow and Miller is very capable.

 

[Omer2002]

They don’t have the batting either

Ermmm....i actually think Multan will win the PSL

 

[Rana]

What is wrong with this umpire? How could you give that out??

 

[jattafridi]

Come on multan
Need good performance from
Ihsanullah and Usama mir

 

[Rana]

What a poor, pooooor decision and thankfully overturned on review

 

[Rana]

This is not the Shafique I know

 

[AAli98]

Good catch from paks best ever w/k Batsman.

 

[Omer2002]

Ihsannullahs pace mashallah he is the find of psl alright not like clown dhanni...i know he is an awful fielder but can he bat

 

[PakPremi]

This is not the Shafique I know

Did he not start off with a century and has been batting at good strike rate this psl all the way through?

 

[Rana]

Yes Doully is in the commentary team

Can’t wait for the truth bombs during Sultan’s batting

 

[Rana]

Some poor overs for Qalandars since powerplay ended

 

[Champ_Pal]

Shafiq must be fast tracked into Pak side immediately. The man is full of class.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Pollard is washed up.

 

[Rana]

Interpol needs to get involved here

The real Abdullah Shafique has gone missing

 

[Rana]

Qalandars smashing everyone in Lahore

It’s their PSL to lose

 

[jattafridi]

Rizwan what r u doing
Need a better plan

 

[jattafridi]

As long as Islamabad don’t win psl cup

I am happy

 

[Rana]

More delays

 

[Rana]

More wides

 

[Rana]

Bowl straight mate

 

[Rana]

Smash Sameen now

Ball not swinging

 

[Rana]

They are running out of bowling options here

 

[Saj]

Shafique is so good to watch.

Makes batting look so easy.

 

[Rana]

Why isn’t he bowling Mir??

 

[Rana]

Wow that’s audacious Shafique!!

 

[Rana]

Soft dismissal

 

[JibranAnsari]

Shafique is good to watch but not what our t20 team needs.

 

[Saj]

LQ losing key wickets here.

200 might be too far for them.

 

[Justcrazy]

154 . 7

18 balls to go.

 

[PakPremi]

Pollard should had bowled another over, both him and Ihsanullah bowled .

 

[boomboomcheema]

Lame end to the innings. Was expecting score in range of 190-200.

 

[NeVerMind]

Hasan Talat is such a rubbish player...don't know how he managed to get into the Pakistan squad a few years back...he was the original Khushdil!

 

[Saj]

Been sloppy MS.

14 extras.

Looking like a team who haven't played for quite a few days.

 

[Saj]

Hasan Talat is such a rubbish player...don't know how he managed to get into the Pakistan squad a few years back...he was the original Khushdil!

Agree.

Keeps on getting picked season after season despite flopping most of the time.

 

[Justcrazy]

Multan have bowled well here , they have kept things under control.

 

[PakPremi]

Hasan Talat is such a rubbish player...don't know how he managed to get into the Pakistan squad a few years back...he was the original Khushdil!

When he used to represent Pakistan I used to call the set of players TIKA, and when he was dropped thankfully I changed it to KIA, as the other 3 continued to represent Pakistan unfortunately. These players can not be relied on.

 

[NeVerMind]

Lahore capitulating towards the end...shame as wanted to see how Riz and Masood would deal with chasing a large score...

 

[PakPremi]

Good captaincy by Rizwan, he kept shouting nahin nahin wicket leni hai.

 

[PakPremi]

Lahore capitulating towards the end...shame as wanted to see how Riz and Masood would deal with chasing a large score...

They will under termendous pressure with 180 odd to chase against very good ans in form LQ bowling.

 

[NeVerMind]

It's been a steady decline....form the heights of Afraid, Razzaq and Azhar to the middle tier of Hafeez and Malik to this current lot... scrapping the bottom of the barrel....

 

[Rana]

Rizwan all the time in the world when batting and injuries

Now captaining taking all the time in the world

2 hours to complete 20 overs

 

[Rana]

180 breached

 

[Saj]

Nearly 2 hours this innings.

Absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Rana]

Captain deserves a 1 match ban for this

 

[Justcrazy]

Lahore should be able to defend this 180 , with the bowling unit they have.

 

[NeVerMind]

Captain deserves a 1 match ban for this

Riz should make Khushdil the kuptaan half way thru the match then....only way we will see the back of HappyHeart!

 

[jattafridi]

Target 181

Multan Army do something

Rizwon miller the killer Rilee rossouw
And Greatest t20 all rounder pollard

 

[Rana]

Go on the Rizwan face up or will you send Shan to face?

 

[PakPremi]

It's been a steady decline....form the heights of Afraid, Razzaq and Azhar to the middle tier of Hafeez and Malik to this current lot... scrapping the bottom of the barrel....

Yup, Pakistan seriously lack a genuine All rounder.

 

[PakPremi]

Go on the Rizwan face up or will you send Shan to face?

Does it really matter both are here to open. Single off first ball will get the other to face.

 

[Rana]

No swing to the left hander

 

[Saj]

Fakhar very honest during his interview at the innings break.

Saying they feel they are 10-15 runs short but with their bowling attack they fancy their chances.

 

[Rana]

Rizwan itching to go leg side
