Peshawar Zalmi v Quetta Gladiators | PSL 2 | Qualifier 1 | Sharjah | Feb 28, 2017 | Match Thread

[Rayyman]

Want to see a 50 from- "The Green General".

 

[ExpressPacer]

Sarfraz showing he isn't a 20/20 player.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Bang on the money each ball

 

[fasihulhaq94]

Blessed over

[Rayyman]

Bang on the money each ball

Shehzad said that the pitch is slow now.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Shaabaash , great over.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Only if rossouw gets out. Sarfraz can't hit pacers at the death

yeah he cant hit pacers but still can push the run rate

 

[marlonbrowndo]

LOL Sarfraz trying to hit

 

[Sports_Psychologist]

Afridi on rage...

 

[MABA]

Peshawar bringing it back nicely here

 

[darksher]

This is the Shehzad we've been accustomed to seeing when he was in rich vein of form, dearly hope this knock gives him the confidence he needs and he gets back to his best, more importantly his performance in this edition of PSL should be rewarded with a spot in the national outfit. He has earned it!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

yeah he cant hit pacers but still can push the run rate

He's very good with a dynamic batsman at the other end and rossouw is the only one left. Rossouw is key here

 

[KingKhanWC]

Shehzad said that the pitch is slow now.

Yes more variety bowled too.

 

[Rayyman]

Roussouw is so bad. Complete hack.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

These catch a crore interviews are so...

 

[Asif321]

sarfarz looks out of touch

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Roussouw is so bad. Complete hack.

This "hack" was carrying them in the first half of the tournament

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

i think we should push Hasan Khan up the order today

 

[marlonbrowndo]

sarfarz looks out of touch

No he just can't hit at the death. Peshawar will want to get Rossouw and keep Sarfraz there

 

[JibranAnsari]

Zalmi coming back into the game.. Shabash

 

[Madplayer]

Roussouw is so bad. Complete hack.

Good joke. He is anything but a hack

 

[ExpressPacer]

Hope Sarfraz gets out.. What a pathetic player when it comes to powerhitting.

 

[Madplayer]

Hope Sarfraz gets out.. What a pathetic player when it comes to powerhitting.

He struggles badly when it comes to slogging fast bowlers in death overs.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Don't know why they have to interview the catch-a-crore winners.

 

[Boi]

Hope Sarfraz gets out.. What a pathetic player when it comes to powerhitting.

Rossouw looking just as pathetic..

 

[KingKhanWC]

Double dive saves two.

Wicket is on it's way...

 

[marlonbrowndo]

This is what [MENTION=134608]Hawkeye[/MENTION] and I are always talking about. Sarfraz is an average LOI batsman.

 

[Rayyman]

This "hack" was carrying them in the first half of the tournament

So is Dwayne Smith carrying IU.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Quetta wouldn't be in this position had it not been for Sammy's idiotic captaincy.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Jordan pin point accuracy with his yorkers..so far.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

This is what [MENTION=134608]Hawkeye[/MENTION] and I are always talking about. Sarfraz is an average LOI batsman.

he is a very good odi bat if used at no 4 ..

odi batting isnt all about power hitting ..

t20s dont care much as long as sarfi wins as captain and upcoming players perform

 

[Asif321]

both cnat score

 

[JibranAnsari]

Quetta s bowling is weak, peshawar should fancy chasing 200

 

[Asif321]

what happned rossuw

 

[Markhor]

Of course Sarfraz critics would pipe up now as soon as he has ONE innings off colour.

Your precious Akmal brothers have batted at a SLOWER SR in this PSL than Sarfraz but no surprise you were silent then.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Excellent over.

Keep em below 190

 

[Rayyman]

Commies expect a 50 in every match from RR. He isn't Bradman.

 

[nighthawk23]

these two are sucking the oxygen out of this innings

 

[badsha001]

did sarfraz skip his "teeke" in his childhood...? No power or technique whatsoever...

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Of course Sarfraz critics would pipe up now as soon as he has ONE innings off colour.

Your precious Akmal brothers have batted at a SLOWER SR in this PSL than Sarfraz but no surprise you were silent then.

Why are you bringing up Akmals? I don't even want Kamran Akmal near the team Sarfrazs strike rate even in international cricket is not an accurate representation of his hitting ability. It's high because he is very good at rotating strike

 

[KingKhanWC]

Good old fashioned beamer.. Not a no ball tho

 

[TalhaSyed]

132 in the first 11.2 overs

30 in the next 5 overs

 

[Asif321]

they cant get 200 . need to get Anwar

 

[KingKhanWC]

Cleaned him up!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Bowled him. He was quettas only chance of getting 200+

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Sit down son.

 

[Markhor]

132 in the first 11.2 overs

30 in the next 5 overs

Pitch is slowing and Zalmi are bowling better. You can't smash every ball out of the park.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

sometimes you have to appreciate the bowlers too

Hassan was very good and Wahab came back well.

 

[Asif321]

poor innings by Rossuw . Now Anwar only hope

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Peshawar should be disappointed if they don't chase this down. Easy runs against this attack. Mills is the only threat.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Nawaz will swallow up a few dots

 

[KingKhanWC]

Sammy )

 

[Asif321]

Anwar is here

 

[Rayyman]

Nawaz will swallow up a few dots

Good shot by Annoo

 

[Madplayer]

Of course Sarfraz critics would pipe up now as soon as he has ONE innings off colour.

Your precious Akmal brothers have batted at a SLOWER SR in this PSL than Sarfraz but no surprise you were silent then.

Why is It hard to accept that sarfaraz struggles to score quick runs against pace bowlers? Its a fact and he has shown this inability time and time again.

He is great against spin (perhaps best in the team) and can score at brisk rate against spinners. He can score singles and occasional boundaries against pace bowlers. That is what sarfaraz is as a batsman.

Let's appreciate him for what he is rather than blindly believing that he can do any job given to him.

 

[Adil_94]

garbage batting by Roussow and Sarfraz.

 

[darksher]

Sarfraz is an accumulator with no power striking ability, struggles big time in death overs when there is a need to accelerate, doesn't have the muscle power to hit big and impose himself on the bowlers, should be utilized in top 4 in ODIs as he can rotate strike at will and help his partner build an innings but he is definitely not a slogger/finisher to end an innings on high, and most certainly he's not T20 material, poor decision of giving him captaincy on management's part.

 

[TalhaSyed]

Pitch is slowing and Zalmi are bowling better. You can't smash every ball out of the park.

Sure - but scoring at 6 RPO after having such a great launch pad?

Poor bating in any circumstances. In any circumstances, with only 2 wickets down after 12 overs, there is no excuse to be batting at the run-a-ball mark.

QG have thrown away a great opportunity hear to bat PZ out of the game.

 

[fasihulhaq94]

wth wahab, second collision

 

[KingKhanWC]

Bring back Ashgar to Sarfraz

 

[srh]

this match is telling us why Sarfraz should not be in T20 team

 

[marlonbrowndo]

That's a no ball...

 

[Markhor]

Zalmi should be alright vs Anwar Ali as long as they don't feed him length balls on his pads like Binura Fernando infamously did in that Sri Lanka T20.

 

[badsha001]

lmao Sarfraz can't hit for his life here

 

[Rayyman]

Let the players complain. You get fired up out there.

 

[Adil_94]

Danny destroying Kami on commentary

 

[Markhor]

Has Ranmore Martinez gone to the Asoka de Silva school of Sri Lankan umpiring ? Clear no ball.

 

[fasihulhaq94]

3rd class umpiring as well

 

[Cheetah99]

Danny: 'Give kamran a slap, what are you complaining there for' LOOOOOOOL CLASSIC!

 

[Rayyman]

Anwar is such a hack.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Even Anwar Ali doesn't know which shot he is about to play, good luck bowlers.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Sarfraz should give the strike to Anwa. Anwar is garbage but at least he can hit

 

[KingKhanWC]

Nice leave by Anwar

 

[Rayyman]

Lol crowd chanting Anwar.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Beautiful bowling by Jordan

 

[KingKhanWC]

0-30 , very good spell by Chris Jordan today.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Best friends in the middle here. One can't hit and the other can't play

 

[MABA]

some terrible batting from Quetta for the last 7 overs or so

 

[srh]

Sarfraz has hurt his team more than Zalmi so far

 

[MRSN]

)all rounder)
