What's new

Multan Sultans (227/4) cruise past Hyderabad Kingsmen (225/5) with a comfortable six wicket victory in match 8 of PSL 11

From the moment that Smith and Farhan came out you had a feeling that Multan were going to chase it down. Especially looking at the lack of quality in the Hyderabad attack and the flatness of the pitch. Farhan played an outstanding knock - this is what anchoring an innings looks like in modern day cricket, although he should focus less on milestones, and more on playing his natural, free-flowing game whether he's on 9 or 99. Smith and Masood played crucial knocks too, and a great flourish at the end by Arafat Minhas.
 
HHK have been atrocious barring a couple of players , Gillespie such a let down this has been so far.

Smith inclusion has benefit all the Pakistan players in defunct Sialkot Stallionz, oh Multan Sultans
 
Someone needs to stop watering pitches at these 2 venues & let them be dry where 160 is par & can be defended . Craziily flat decks & empty stadiums are a recipe for complete disaster .
 
Sharjeel Khan Post-Match Presser:

"When I was picked by Hyderabad, I knew they had regular international openers, so I started my process for middle-order batting."

"It is not easy to play in the middle order after opening for 20+ years."

"I am practicing for every position, wherever the chance is, I will try my best."

"Today, our batting was good, but due to the dew, our bowlers found it a bit difficult to bowl."

"We gave a target of 226; we should have won."

"Being a professional, you need to avail opportunities."

"I have worked a lot on fitness in the last 2 years."

"I go to the USA just for off-season cricket, I don't live there and have no future plans as well."

"Hanif Malik has been coaching me since 2002; I have a long relationship with him."

"Jason Gillespie has coached worldwide in leagues; we just try to learn as much from him."

"I never miss any domestic cricket, for both my department and my region, Hyderabad."
 
Multan Sultans secured a major Pakistan Super League (PSL) record on Wednesday, successfully completing the highest run chase ever seen at the Gaddafi Stadium during their third match of the tournament’s 11th edition against Hyderabad Kingsmen.
