I expect another one sided match with this overrated Islamabad side. Hopefully Sharjeel, Watson etc. get their acts right to make this interesting.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Well, i hope this match will be interesting and high scoring.

 

[the Great Khan]

love the enthusiasm from our lovely PP fans..shaabaash..

 

[Passionate Observer]

Two boring one sided encounters has dented all the anticipation and excitement in fans hearts for PSL, don't want three in a row.

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Let's go Misbah

 

[IAJ]

Pity we don't have Jordan, remember his over in that super-over against Pakistan?

 

[Adil_94]

The in studio banter between pat symcox and wilko is really cringey and painful.

Nope

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Quite a few Bangladesh people in crowd.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Im backing Isl. Hope they bat second. Like some Peshawar players like Yamin etc and want them to do well

 

[Executioner]

Nope

but it does start at 8PM local time ?

Yes

 

[Adijazz1706]

So Boom-Boom vs Tuk-Tuk. Who will win? Will Misbah walk into a crisis again?

 

[#GreenRoars]

Only one match was delayed which was yesterday.

 

[PCP_1]

Whoever bats first will lose.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Toss time now.

 

[Yanna_Rascala]

I want Yamin to do well and replace Anwar Ali.

 

[Passionate Observer]

Whoever bats first will lose.

Man! you've completely put your life on hold for PSL, you need to get away from your computer screen and go out.

 

[Adijazz1706]

Too long a gap between matches. Should be 1 hour or so.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Peshawar Zalmi batting first.

 

[Adijazz1706]

Seems a bad decision to bat 1st looking at the 1st 2 matches. Hope it isn't 1-sided.

 

[Strike Rate]

WTH Afridi just said Shane Watson is playing in his team )

 

[Yanna_Rascala]

Misbah playing Saeed Ajmal??? I hope that's only so Ajmal can boost Zalmi's runrate we can get a high scoring game...

 

[DW44]

Hometown number 1 vs number 2. Heart says Peshawar but part of me still wants ISB to win because I can't stand that waste of space Afridi. Should have had a different captain.

Afridi is indeed LALA...

Tamim and Kami opening i guess

 

[Strike Rate]

I am loving it many APS kids are there in stands! what a great gesture by Zalmi

 

[Executioner]

Tamim and Kami opening i guess

I heard somewhere that Watto will be the runner for those two you mention. Two of the worst runner between the wickets. Maybe you should search for the video of how Kami got run out in a BPL match :kamran

I saw that run our of Kami live during that BPL match lol well kami isn't opening with Tamim just checked the line up and guess what another great runner Hafeez is opening with Tamim

 

[Barragan]

Playing 11?

[pakistanigoneaussie]

disappointing not to see yamin, looks like we are destined for anwar to be our quasi allrounder

 

[Yanna_Rascala]

Yamin not playing.....I am afraid we are gonna be stuck with Anwar "Allrounder" Ali forever. I won't be surprised if Yamin is not even in the 15 man squad. PATHETIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my words, it might be the repeat of what happened today in the U-19 WC QF. Some of the worst running between the wickets you will ever see in a professional cricket match.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Zalmi XI looks solid. Good to see Asghar over Rehman.

 

[DW44]

If watto plays the way he did yesterday, he will definitely will be plying for the zalmis

We have Afridi who's been playing for the opposition his entire career so it'll still be a good 11 v 11.

[PCP_1]

Afridi or Akmal should've opened if we're to decide on a fixed opening pair by the WC.

 

[Jabo]

0 chance this game starts on time too probably

90 minute delay yesterday
Today 1st game 25 minutes

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Islamabad has crazy batting depth... wrong choice by Afridi to bat first

itll start on time in 10 minutes

I saw only last few minutes of BD batting and they won i think it was QF?

Get your facts right, yesterday game was delayed 30 minutes, and today all games are on time. ( CI timings are wrong )

Yeah, great to see Asghar playing, but disappointed with no Hassan.

Also, a washed up ajmal is selected ahead of a young and exciting prospect like Ghulam.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Afridi going with pace battery, strange.

Don't underestimate Afridi in T20s.

No Hassan and no Yaamen but they will play next game IA.

Afridi is a real match winner in T20s tbh

Yes it was

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pace instead of spin in Afridi team

Looks pretty silly seeing first 3 games being dominated by spin to still go with pace.

Who else apart from Afridi can bowl spin in his team?

 

[DW44]

Don't underestimate Afridi in T20s.

It's Afridi. He usually finds a way to mess up regardless of the format. That's one thing I've learned watching him for 20 years.

Saeed Ajmal playing interesting. Peshawar look very strong team on paper.

 

[Passionate Observer]

Why would anyone want to buy a mediocre player like Tamim? Pakistan's fascination with Bangladeshi players is distressing! Two worst runners at the Top of the order, lots of diabolical comical running between the wickets expected with these two in the middle, won't be surprised if anyone of them gets runout.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

So excited to see Boom Boom Afridi bat. This is not an international match so there is no pressure on Lala and the Pakistan fans.

Also the fact that the United team has 3 spinners. Afridi will love it!

 

[#GreenRoars]

[MENTION=135445]Strike Rate[/MENTION] How much Peshawar can score???

Islamabad will win I think

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Wanted Yamin to play

 

[#GreenRoars]

Hafeez opening with Tamim.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Ironic. Hafeez holding a ball in his picture. Hes in wonderful form though

 

[razabbas]

Tamim and hafeez

 

[#GreenRoars]

Russel bowling first over.

 

[Barragan]

I thought Kamran would open?

He is good as an opener.

 

[PCP_1]

Hafeez chucking even in his pose picture as well.

Well check Tamim's stats before making the comment. Tamim is a popular name in international cricket something the teams are after. More importantly he is in good form and is a good player of spin which is why he will be effective on this wicket. However, whether he can deliver or not is upto him

 

[Professor]

I can see Islamabad wining , Peshawar attack is pace heavy and the united batsman will have an easier time than they did last game.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Hafeez and his rituals
