[pakistani pride]

Come on Qalanders lets do this!

 

[SensiblePakFan]

Is a vote even needed?

We all know the result, lets not joke around.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Lahore Qalandars need to strengthen their bowling a bit and Shaheen has to lead. Or Lahore should opt to chase and hope Zaman and de Villiers to fire.

 

[Hasan123]

Hopefully Lahore destroy this overhyped franchise.

 

[nextover666666]

[Rana]

Team sheets for the big clash!

 

[Rayyman]

When does the match end

 

[Syed1]

Are you ready [MENTION=138254]Syed1[/MENTION] [MENTION=133760]Abdullah719[/MENTION]

What's the record 5-1, 6-1, 7-1????


I forget.... no fun beating minnows

 

[Usman Chadda]

Think this will be the first time Amir bowls to de Villiers since his comeback?

 

[babajee]

What's the record 5-1, 6-1, 7-1????


I forget.... no fun beating minnows

Acting like an Indian fan here

 

[Hasan123]

I hope we get a high scoring game.

 

[Titan24]

Lahore needs to get a replacement for Brathwaite, Ben Cutting could be decent. Corey Anderson will join hopefully next week

 

[Darkrai]

Excited for this one.

 

[babajee]

Think this will be the first time Amir bowls to de Villiers since his comeback?

Who said de Villiers is gonna bat?

 

[Darkrai]

I wish Babar and ABD played in the same team, since AB is his fav player.

 

[Hasan123]

As much as a I despise Karachi Kings , their bowling with Amir and Imad makes them very strong. Munro will add something to the batting line up. Usama Mir should be playing as I think he is a potential match winner with the ball.

 

[Titan24]

What's the record 5-1, 6-1, 7-1????


I forget.... no fun beating minnows

Its 4-2 I guess

 

[Hasan123]

Game time.

 

[Rayyman]

Karachi will win

 

[Hasan123]

Imad vs Fakhar should be a good battle.

 

[Green Patriot]

Come on KK.

Lets do it.

 

[Hasan123]

Good single

 

[Hbomb00]

Dam its the same pitch

 

[Hasan123]

PCB should avoid having games on the same pitch on the same day. It seems to be playing a part in the pitch quality.

 

[Hasan123]

Amir into the attack.

 

[Hasan123]

Not much interest on PP in a big game in the PSL.

 

[Titan24]

Sohail has shown solid technique considering he is a hitter

 

[Markhor]

Hopefully Lahore destroy this overhyped franchise.

I don't care who wins though it'd be funny to see Mickey lead Karachi to a tournament win to give Syed1 and Slog some stomach bugs.

 

[Rayyman]

KK doesn't feel like a Karachi team, they need to get Sarfraz

 

[Markhor]

Fakhar vs Amir should be an interesting battle.

 

[Hbomb00]

need fakhar to do this rotation of strike in odis as well

 

[babajee]

Fakhar giving UKS the treatment he deserves

 

[Hasan123]

Shinwari is trash.

 

[Hbomb00]

fakhar

 

[Markhor]

Too easy for Fakhar.

With Hasan Ali and Shaheen Afridi in the XI, there's a battle between Shinwari and Junaid to be the 3rd pacer in England.

 

[Hasan123]

I don't care who wins though it'd be funny to see Mickey lead Karachi to a tournament win to give Syed1 and Slog some stomach bugs.

Mickey doesn't need to win the PSL to prove he is a good coach.

 

[Hasan123]

Sohail at least looks to rotate strike.

 

[Hasan123]

Clever shot.

 

[Hbomb00]

Sohail this time epic phainty Shinwari

 

[babajee]

I don't understand Mickey's love for UKS

 

[Hbomb00]

God this allied bank ad

 

[Chokli]

didn't sohail khan have a problem with mickey arthur or something

 

[thecrusade911]

I don't know why but I like this Sohail Akhter guy. I want him to play well. He is a big hitter and I this he is much more dynamic and versatile as a batsman than Asif Ali.

 

[Hasan123]

I thought Mickey didn't get on with Sohail and here he is playing for KK again. These franchises have very weird selections at times.

 

[MMHS]

On paper, LQ's team is best in PSL but some how they always find a way to loose. In last game, I can see they played Carlos B'the, when Viljoen is available!!!

LQ is pakistan cricket team on a smaller scale

 

[Hasan123]

Sohail doesn't look a bad player . Want to see more from him.

 

[Markhor]

Fakhar and Sharjeel opening at the next T20 WC is a mouthwatering prospect.

Really? The bowling is average.

 

[Chokli]

sohail "kon kohli? hoga apne gar ka kohli" khan

 

[Rayyman]

PSL is boring as hell. Can't wait til Aus. series.

 

[Chokli]

Fakhar and Sharjeel opening at the next T20 WC is a mouthwatering prospect.

i'd move fakhar at 1 down and have babar and sharjeel open with umar at 4

 

[babajee]

Fakhar and Sharjeel opening at the next T20 WC is a mouthwatering prospect.

You can't not have Babar opening.

 

[Titan24]

Excellent strike rotation

 

[Usman Chadda]

Lahore is snatching good singles here. Keeping the scoreboard ticking

 

[Hasan123]

Decent start by LQ.

 

[babajee]

Dispatched for four

 

[Hbomb00]

Fakhar Lol AMir

 

[Hasan123]

Nice change up.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Fakhar and Amir going at it

 

[Hasan123]

Amir has had problems in ODIs and tests but he has been good in T20s. He seems to be more motivated for T20 games.

 

[Hasan123]

Fakhar is trying to hit the ball too hard.

 

[Titan24]

PSL is boring as hell. Can't wait til Aus. series.

Will start to become more interesting once we are a little more into the tournament

 

[Titan24]

Amir has had problems in ODIs and tests but he has been good in T20s. He seems to be more motivated for T20 games.

Needs to up his fitness for ODIs

 

[Usman Chadda]

That was an entertaining over lol

 

[Chokli]

where the hell is this aggression when playing internationals amir

 

[MMHS]

I thought Mickey didn't get on with Sohail and here he is playing for KK again. These franchises have very weird selections at times.

Sohail's problem is his stamina from natural aging - he is almost 35 now, being born probably as 5 years old .... otherwise his skill sets and physical attributes were perfect for No. 9 bowling all-rounder, may be even No. 8. He is 6'4" ish, can/could out swing it at pace, could reverse as well and he definitely can swing bat. Ideally, he should have been PAK regular from 2009 after a phenomenal domestic debut (probably a record), but he was debuted on a wicket for which the curator should have been banned for life and that cost him cool 6-7 years - by the time officially he crossed retirement age of Imran's scouting mantra. The way he started FC career at official 23, I am sure he was delayed there as well by at least 3-4 years. Ideally PAK pacers should debut in FC at U18 and in International at U23, preferably at U19 like Shaheen.

 

[Hasan123]

Fakhar has missed out on some boundary balls.

Yes I agree with this.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Game no2 without Haris sohail and Agha Salman... I believe these two will warm the bench forever...

Just like Umar Amin couldnt get one game under Sarfraz for the whole PSL2 tournament

 

[Rayyman]

where the hell is this aggression when playing internationals amir

Fakhar is actually good. Who cares when ur bowling at other garbage players.

 

[Hasan123]

Clean strike.
