Lahore Qalandars vs Karachi Kings | PSL - 5th match | Dubai | Feb 16, 2019 | LQ innings

[MMHS]

fakhar is turning out to be a poor mans sharjeel khan

Wrong comparison - you could have said rich man's Awais Zia. SK was totally different beast - played shots with power but played shots on proper merit; he was gradually improving and got banned just after his best series with few months under Arthur, at his peak years. This guy is fading away after 2 years with Arthur and getting out almost every time ugly way.

 

[Titan24]

take umer khan to the world cup as our main spinner

Too early to call. Let him perform throughout the tournament and if he really has a good tournament then Aus ODIs can be good oppurtunity for him

 

[Baigel]

Early prediction: Umer Khan to be brought into the Pakistan squad for the AUS series

 

[Sadozai]

This kid (umer) is really impressive so far. Thank God he got chance ahead of Usama Mir

 

[MMHS]

Qallanders are probably cursed by every Pakistani outside Lahore - whoever plays for them somehow forgets his game. I can see Shaheen hit almost a half century last time.........

 

[Baigel]

Impact outside off

 

[ARK Rafay]

M Hafeez can only save this sinking batting of Lahore

 

[Hasan123]

Umer Khan has done a good job.

 

[Hbomb00]

Review Lol

 

[Baigel]

There were spikes before the ball reached the bat!

nah i'll stick with poor mans sharjeel khan

looks good so far and should definitely be in the australia series.

we haven't had a proper spinner since abdur rehman, saeed ajmal days

 

[Markhor]

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.

Sohail was definitely no mug with the bat. More of an AR than Ashraf.

He nearly even saved a Test v ENG at Edgbaston.

 

[Rayyman]

Karachi have a good captain

 

[Hbomb00]

Need 170 plus to have a chance dam why LQ everytime chokes

 

[Deewana Mastana]

So much wrong with this year's PSL can't even start putting it all down.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Spinners are having a good time today. Hopefully Hafeez and Devcich will bowl alongside Yasir Shah

 

[Hbomb00]

GOAT interview! xD

 

[Amirforpresident]

guys, did you see the look Rahat gave to AB when he was walking off the field

 

[Chokli]

So much wrong with this year's PSL can't even start putting it all down.

might as well start

 

[Justcrazy]

90 . 3


13 overs

 

[Hbomb00]

Where is Fawad Rana??

 

[Sunny_majoka]

don't whats the problem with the Lahore
they had gayle , macculum and now AB
next they should sign Kohli

 

[Titan24]

So much wrong with this year's PSL can't even start putting it all down.

World isnt perfect afterall.

 

[Darkrai]

For Qalandar,

Gayle failed
Baz failed
now...ABD?

 

[Justcrazy]

42 balls , Lahore should look for another 75 runs here

 

[Hbomb00]

first 2 games were good now boring

 

[Baigel]

It's the curse of the Fawad Rana Moustache

 

[MMHS]

I think, this is day 3 & 5th game on this venue, so it's reaching towards it's originality. 150ish total should be fight-able here, but KK are favorites now.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Why Hafeez didn't come 1 down?

 

[Hbomb00]

Hafeez

 

[Amirforpresident]

Good arm-ball from Umer

 

[Titan24]

Excellent temperament shown by Umer Khan

 

[Deewana Mastana]

might as well start

You can get going if you want.

World isnt perfect afterall.

That's what cricket should be like

 

[Ummii]

LQ gonna win easily

 

[Baigel]

Doesn't Umer Khan bowl like Shakib Ul Hasan?

 

[Titan24]

Doesn't Umer Khan bowl like Shakib Ul Hasan?

His action is definitely inspired.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Doesn't Umer Khan bowl like Shakib Ul Hasan?

Yes. Variations are similar to Shakib as well IMO

 

[Hbomb00]

60 runs needed in 6 overs xD

 

[fluke]

devcich is costing Lahore as fakhar does at top

 

[Hbomb00]

Hafeez

 

[MRSN]

That is madness

 

[Titan24]

Why did you run Hafeez

 

[ARK Rafay]

Batsman in the line-up are all in the dug out now

 

[fluke]

chalo ji captain sb is gone and the game as well

 

[MMHS]

Doesn't Umer Khan bowl like Shakib Ul Hasan?

Shakib is slightly taller and a bit more side on, which gives him more conventional turn and that makes his armer lethal on turners. This kid is more chest on, but the action indeed resembles.

 

[Titan24]

I dont know if its something LQ players eat

 

[Markhor]

LQ are like the nation's yearly sitcom.

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

i thought its shane warne
what has happened to Taylor

 

[Hbomb00]

There is some black magic being done on LQ

 

[Rayyman]

What a useless tournament. Would be better if Pak. players get rest. Likes of Fakhar, Babar, Sarfraz, Imad, Amir, Hasan and Shaheen have no business playing in this competition.

 

[MMHS]

Hafeez is DEFINITELY NOT FIT enough .... he'll cost PAK in WC if someone doesn't do that YoYo test honestly 0 in good faith and without negligence. Half of the PAK squad was unfit in SAF, Sarfraz is scoring 18.2 and here Hafeez is playing for 4 months now since Asia cup apparently with full fitness. ........ then they dropped Umer on fitness ground!!!!!

 

[Baigel]

Why does Brendan Taylor look like Mickey Arthur in a helmet?

 

[Chokli]

who is this interviewer? he's so cringe and extra

 

[Justcrazy]

Devich gone

 

[Hbomb00]

Taylor

 

[Markhor]

Brendan Taylor is Zimbabwe's best batsman. However since his comeback from a county stint his form has been poor.

 

[MRSN]

Devich gone

Apki stream bshut aage hai

 

[MMHS]

Including foreigners, every LQ player next time should recite Sura Naas 3 times before every game and Haris should lead the chorus .... his ghost has followed him to this franchise.

 

[Hbomb00]

Devcich

 

[babajee]

Including foreigners, every LQ player next time should recite Sura Naas 3 times before every game and Haris should lead the chorus .... his ghost has followed him to this franchise.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Don't only Haris has a ghost on him. As for the past 3 years they've finished at the bottom of the table

[IAJ]

Toothless bowling from Shinwari, has totally lost it

 

[Baigel]

Shoaib trying to get a gig at KK next year

 

[MRSN]

Fawad Rana must be watching this game with his therapist.

 

[MMHS]

Don't only Haris has a ghost on him. As for the past 3 years they've finished at the bottom of the table

For 3 years LQ has finished bottom and enjoyed top draft picks next year - if they do it again, this time should trade top pick with others and pick the left over players - it might work.

 

[Chokli]

this is boring

 

[MRSN]

Devch playing a match losing knock. Reminds me of Misbah.

 

[Chokli]

these pitches are awful

 

[Hbomb00]

Now they can't even hit SOhail khan...

 

[Justcrazy]

Lahore will get to around 145 here

 

[Hbomb00]

Lahore will get to around 145 here

my prediction 140

 

[Hbomb00]

another one bites the dust

 

[Hbomb00]

Devichich now LQ choking AMIR!!

 

[Chokli]

who the hell is in charge of the pitches?

you've had great games the past few days and then we have today's 2 dull matches.



awful

 

[a_tahir]

Taylor can't bat the other guy can't bat either.
Who strikes at 92 in a t20

 

[Justcrazy]

Amir gets two in two balls.

 

[Hbomb00]

Allan pronounces Amir correctly

 

[Justcrazy]

130 with six balls to go

 

[DRsohail]

[MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] hafeez is keeping saad ali and haris Sohail out for devcish and taylor.
