and some not.

yes

yes

Thanks. Good to see him there hope he gets a game.

aqib javed in a interview was saying irfan can bowl 6 yorker in six balls .this is very good quality i hope

he gets some games along with ghulam maddasar

 

[ask_analyse_act]

We need a good no.6 or 7 slogger in our national team and if a good batsman can convert himself into an effective slogger then it's not bad at all. We already have too many of classy batsmen who can't change gears towards the end of innings.

U did that UA. can't his career be a lesson and eye opener for everyone. Aaqib is not an int'l level coach, at best he can be a decent bowling coach with all the experience he had. He is like the Nel, Bracken and Hayward of pak.

He makes these kinda comments to attract ppl to PSL. It is all marketing.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

If this team plays to 75% of its potential, they will run over teams. Inexperience is the only thing holding them back.

In Ghulam, Saif, Irfan, Gohar, they've got four of Pakistan's best young prospects.

One of the top three, needs to click every game. Below UA, only Rizwan, Tanvir and Franklin are left, so if the top three clicks then should win 75% of the game, but if none of these work, then..

You're forgetting Delport.

 

[Gunner786]

Too much reliance on their top order.

 

[MightyObnoxious]

You're forgetting Delport.

I don't think Delport will play. perhaps when Roy goes on international duty then maybe open with Baz otherwise he won't play.

 

[saeed5646]

this kit is better than green one but i think they are using black kit for practice session

 

[saeed5646]

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Good to see Ehtisham there.

 

[saeed5646]

Good to see Ehtisham there.

what is he doing there

 

[Chief Destroyer]

what is he doing there

He was one of the lead pacers in the development squad so probably called him over to get some experience bowling to international players and as a replacement if needed.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Hope they don't play Azhar.

Mcculum
Roy
Akmal
Delport
Saif
Rizwan
Yamin
Zafar

Irfan is a supplementary. You will need to pick another player from the emerging category.

 

[Speedster777]

They've a pretty good talent hunting squad. Looking forward to watching some emerging fast bowlers.

 

[saeed5646]

Just brilliant idea from qalandars coaching stuff this is what other team should also do
I was very impressed with this lad he is good find

 

[Amirforpresident]

Def the most exciting team in this edition of the PSL because of all the youngsters and guys deserving a chance like Amir Yamin.

Really cant understand why someone would support boring teams like Quetta and Islamabad with their Anwar Ali's, Grant Elliots
And Umar Gul's. :younis

Why would they be training in Lahore. Most likely from Dubai..

And to spoil it for you Grant Elliot is in Lahore Qalenders squad

 

[Brilliance]

Most exciting team of the season. I seriously hope they win the tournament. They are giving exposure to lots of youngsters. Would be awesome if they win it .

 

[Brilliance]

1 McCullum.
2 Roy.
3 Akmal.
4 Saif.
5 Rizwan.
6 Franklin.
7 Yamin.
8 Tanvir.
9 Narine.
10 Yasir.
11 Mudasir.

 

[Saj]

Roy and McCullum alone will win a few matches for Lahore.

What do you think, will Azhar play ?

 

[hailian]

Any one confirms if Sunail Naraine has joined Qalandars in Dubai yet? I dont see him in any of the meeting or training pics

 

[Sub-Zero]

can anyone tell me what's so special about Usman Qadir?

 

[Brilliance]

can anyone tell me what's so special about Usman Qadir?

He is the son of Abdul Qadir.

 

[Brilliance]

I guess I have seen him in one of a pic with Badree.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

What do you think, will Azhar play ?

Hopefully not. Will probably give him 1 or 2 soft games

 

[Chief Destroyer]

He's there now.

 

[Mamoon]

Always a pleasure to see Lahore lose, would be great to see them not qualify for the final in Lahore with their fans crying as usual. However, objectively speaking, they really do have a brilliant squad this season and along with Peshawar are favorites in my not so humble opinion.

Let's just hope that they play Azhar.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Bhatti, Yasir, Elliot out. Zafar, Ghulam, Delport in.

 

[Syed1]

So from captaining the side last year to not even a spot in the side this year. What a fall from grace for Azhar Ali. It took LQ one season and one match to realize that AA is not a LOI player, yet we have been suffering with him for the past 2 years.

 

[WC-Passion]

Stupid selection, Cameron Delport is quite underrated should be in the line-up. Have no idea why Zafar Gohar isn't in the team, he was our best bowler last year. Bhatti is completely useless.

 

[Barragan]

Can't believe Zafar and Yamin didn't play.

bhatti and Yasir out.

Yamin strengths the batting and bowls very well with the new ball.

 

[Ellipsism]

Bhatti, Yasir, Elliot out. Zafar, Ghulam, Delport in.

What were your thoughts on Irfan today?

 

[Chief Destroyer]

What were your thoughts on Irfan today?

Did his thing.

 

[Brilliance]

Drop Rizwan. Make Umar keep. Bring some batsman.Kick out Bhatti. Bring Yamin in. Manage Zafar into the team somehow.

1 Roy.
2 McCullum.
3 Zaman.
4 Umar.
5 Badar.
6 Franklin.
7 Yamin.
8 Narine.
9 Tanvir.
10 Zafar.
11 Irfan.

 

[BleedGreen]

Yamin should play

 

[Syed1]

Did his thing.

Didn't watch his bowling, but alot of PP'ers saying he wasn't pacy at all. Around the late 120s -130kph mark.

Unless he can swing/seam it like Muhammad Asif he will struggle in international cricket with that speed

 

[Square Drive]

Although Karachi lost, good to see that L town has taken another L.

 

[Rayyman]

Qalandars really floundered in this match. Made a couple of blunders. Then the epic choke finished it in style.

 

[Ellipsism]

What I meant to ask was, how pacy he was?

Early 130's.

Yes, he can seam the ball.

 

[cricketerB94]

Early 130's.

Yes, he can seam the ball.

His action will trouble him.

 

[MRSN]

Need to get rid of Rizwan. Give gloves to UA and play Azhar.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

We have better options than Azhar.

 

[Square Drive]

[MENTION=141557]Chief Destroyer[/MENTION] is this the Irfan you've been advocating for?

I'm assuming the one on Peshawar is the leggie?

Yes. Both of them.

 

[Mamoon]

I know T20s isn't his best format, but Yasir is looking very ordinary at the moment. The thrashing in Australia has completely dented his confidence.

Zafar Gohar needs to replace him, can prove to be a very good foil for Narine.

[Boi]

Hopefully Zafar gets a game tomorrow. They need to get Yamin in somehow aswell. Maybe drop Rizwan and give Umar the gloves.

 

[Barragan]

Bring in Zafar for Yasir.

Also, give Zaman a game or two more, but if he fails then replace him with Yamin.

Perfect. Think Rizwan should still play in place of Saif and Umar should play as a specialist batsman. Is T20 goat Tanvir? Hope these guys win the PSL. Great attitude.

Rizwan's all over the place mentally. He needs some time off to reassess his game.

 

[MRSN]

Bilawal Batti bowled a great spell quite surprisingly. Just 15 in 4 overs bit of pulled things back for us.

definitely need to field much better batting line up. This is better.

it is surprisingly. Thought would do well given conditions.

 

[Brilliance]

Fakhar should be dropped and replaced by Saif Badar. Gharri should replace Yasir and Yamin should be brought in.

What a display.

 

[Hasan123]

Elliot and Bhatti should be replaced.

Nothing But need to give chance to muddasar too.

Irfan is better.

 

[itsme]

The approach he shows at the end he needs to shows it more,best team he could have been into.
Feel great to be support lahore,best team,best matches ,best captain.

 

[MRSN]

We are not playing our best team. Hopefully changes next game.

 

[Sports_Psychologist]

Whatever you guys do you ain't gonna win...

 

[Square Drive]

Elliot Tanuu Irfan Rizwan out
Delport Yamin Mudassar Saif In

Tanvir's been decent.

Elliott has picked up wickets and I think a big knock is around the corner.

UA is not a keeper, so I don't know why you'd remove Rizwan.

Irfan has been OK, mixed feelings about him. I guess you can make a case of bringing in Mudassar/Saif/Yamin for him, but I'd give him another game.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

McCullum made a mistake not using Irfan more. He was clearly troubling Morgan.

 

[Hasan123]

I know T20s isn't his best format, but Yasir is looking very ordinary at the moment. The thrashing in Australia has completely dented his confidence.

Zafar Gohar needs to replace him, can prove to be a very good foil for Narine.

Good fight back from Yasir
