[Executioner]

Riad has played 5 matches as a batting allrounder, yet to be dismissed :bradman will we actually get him to get some overs today or will QG make Anwar Ali bat ahead of him for the 3rd time

anwar ali dropped for Gul

and half dead gul is still better than anwar ali


Now they need to get Amin in for Shafiq, and that would be Quetta's best 11

Anwar Ali has always been pretty average. A bits and piece allrounder. Better go with players who is decent in atleast one discipline

he is where he belongs specialist 12th man. His boundary fielding is pretty good by any standard

 

[world cup captain]

Hafeez playing again

 

[Rayyman]

Shafiq still playing. What is Amin doing in the team?

 

[Syed1]

What does Amin have to do to get a game?

 

[MRSN]

Pathetic stuff from Sarfraz. Your team is qualified. Try bench strength. Looks like he is from the same school of thought as Misbah. the winning combination...

 

[Rayyman]

What does Amin have to do to get a game?

Be a lifelong friend of Sarfraz.

 

[MRSN]

What does Amin have to do to get a game?

the winning combination....

I am slowly inclining towards opinion that Sarfraz will make a pathetic captain.

 

[Syed1]

Actually today is crucial for QG if they don't win they will end up at either 2 or 3. They won't come first. So it is a must win sort of.

 

[Syed1]

the winning combination....

I am slowly inclining towards opinion that Sarfraz will make a pathetic captain.

That is dumb logic because they lost the last match. On top of that they have 2 changes.


You tried your best to hate on Sarfaraz but you failed epicaly.

 

[Syed1]

Wow Asghar

 

[Syed1]

Khuda ki kasam drop kardo Shafiq ko...

 

[Rayyman]

the winning combination....

I am slowly inclining towards opinion that Sarfraz will make a pathetic captain.

And Asad is gone.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

A good wicket for Quetta that was.

 

[Syed1]

Wow Asghar that's awesome

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Not a pitch to attack Asghar on.

 

[KB]

Good to see Asghar in the wickets, I think he is a terrific bowler.

 

[world cup captain]

Quetta back in the game.

 

[MRSN]

That is dumb logic because they lost the last match. On top of that they have 2 changes.


You tried your best to hate on Sarfaraz but you failed epicaly.

the fact that Shafiq has been terrible apart from one innings should force him think outside the box.

 

[MRSN]

Quetta don't deserve to finish at top.

 

[MMHS]

PZ didn't plat this guy for 6 matches !!!!!!!!!!

 

[Syed1]

Lol spinners from both ends

 

[Syed1]

PZ didn't plat this guy for 6 matches !!!!!!!!!!

But but but only Sarf plays his friends

 

[MRSN]

PZ didn't plat this guy for 6 matches !!!!!!!!!!

awful. should have been playing all games.

 

[Syed1]

Drop by Sammy

 

[MRSN]

But but but only Sarf plays his friends

you have no clue what you are talking. Sammy is a foreigner may not know much about our players.

 

[Markhor]

What idiots Zalmi have been, Asghar is one of Pakistan's brightest spinners and was one of the top performers in PSL 1.

Should have been in from the start.

 

[MRSN]

by the way can someone tell me what's advantage to finish on top? do they directly play final?

 

[MMHS]

5th maiden of the tournament.

 

[Syed1]

you have no clue what you are talking. Sammy is a foreigner may not know much about our players.

I don't have any clue?


You were harping on about winning combination when Quetta didn't even win last match and the combination is also different. )


If I were you I'd be quiet for a bit.

 

[Rayyman]

5th maiden of the tournament.

2 from Amir and 1 from Sohail. Who bowled the other?

 

[Syed1]

2 from Amir and 1 from Sohail. Who bowled the other?

Shakib just now

 

[Syed1]

What idiots Zalmi have been, Asghar is one of Pakistan's brightest spinners and was one of the top performers in PSL 1.

Should have been in from the start.

He went for 22 off 1 over last match and didn't bowl again.

 

[MMHS]

by the way can someone tell me what's advantage to finish on top? do they directly play final?

It's eliminator method, which gives the top 2 teams 1 more chance after 1st loss. If A, B, C & D finishes at 1, 2, 3 & 4; eliminator is

Match No. 1 : A vs B >> Winner goes to Final
Match No. 2 : C vs D >> Loser goes home
Match No. 3 : Loser Match 1 vs Winner Match No. 2 >> Winner goes to Final

Match No. 4 : Final >> Match No. 1 & Match No. 3

 

[Executioner]

he is where he belongs specialist 12th man. His boundary fielding is pretty good by any standard

now the geniuses have actually dropped two allrounders for two specialist bowlers.

 

[Syed1]

Rossouw resting on his laurels after the first two games.

 

[Adil_94]

Shafiq is garbage in LOI Cricket. Clearly still in the team because of Sarfraz's Sifarish

 

[MMHS]

2 from Amir and 1 from Sohail. Who bowled the other?

Then 4th.

 

[tanveer din]

Rossouw resting on his laurels after the first two games.

[tanveer din]

Rossouw resting on his laurels after the first two games.

[MMHS]

QG's today's team in for T20 in 1917 - 5 specialist bowlers!!!!!

 

[Rayyman]

Shafiq is garbage in LOI Cricket. Clearly still in the team because of Sarfraz's Sifarish

Also Moin Khan.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

they donnt have much choice, i like perera in the side but i dont know how he gets in

 

[Syed1]

QG's today's team in for T20 in 1917 - 5 specialist bowlers!!!!!

Their batting was firing in the last few matches and the bowling was not so they went overboard and played specialist bowlers lmao..

May come back to bite them. They are already 2 down with only Sarf to come.

 

[MRSN]

It's eliminator method, which gives the top 2 teams 1 more chance after 1st loss. If A, B, C & D finishes at 1, 2, 3 & 4; eliminator is

Match No. 4 : Final >> Match No. 1 & Match No. 3

[Syed1]

Rilee like a typical Saffer against spin

 

[world cup captain]

2 from Amir and 1 from Sohail. Who bowled the other?

Shakib just now

Shakib has two to his name after this maiden. In total 5 maidens in this PSL.

 

[Syed1]

[tanveer din]

six

 

[Adil_94]

Quetta will trundle to 150

 

[KingKhanWC]

KP looks in ominous form.

 

[MMHS]

PSL results are highly one sided to chasing teams, which I think due to lack on understanding of the game - still T20 strategy isn't established & most teams batting first are playing too cautiously, which is resulting under per targets with wickets at hand.

Teams need to target a total that costs 8 or 9 wickets by the end of 20th over, which can only happen if they keep a RR around 8 from first over & never allow to drop it below 7.5 - it it results 105/6 in 12 overs, so it be. In any case they are not going to defend 153/4.

 

[MMHS]

MoHa is just a choker, even when catching .....

 

[Adil_94]

what a shocker by Hafeez. His PSL goes from bad to worse

 

[Belawal2014]

hahahahah )

 

[nighthawk23]

And that kids is why you call for the catch.

 

[Speedster777]

hafeez

 

[Justcrazy]

Another thriller in making this game , mark my words

 

[world cup captain]

What was that

 

[Belawal2014]

ahahahahaha Afridi

 

[Justcrazy]

98.3

15 overs

 

[coy0607]

Hafeez is a waste of space.. don't know why he's still in the 11

 

[KingKhanWC]

KP doesn't get the distance. Gone!

 

[Justcrazy]

Quetta needs some big overs here , at least 50 off last five overs

 

[Justcrazy]

Sarfaraz has all responsibility now.
