[Abdul Q]

Malik must be cursing him for going on duck in final game.

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

Looks like all hopes will lie on FAISAL IQBAL.

May HBL have mercy on PIA's souls.

 

[Abdul Q]

Fahad Iqbal is struggling to even put a bat on single delivery of Fahad Masood.

 

[Abdul Q]

[Abdul Q]

Ehsan Adil bowling from another end.

 

[Abdul Q]

Even Agha Sabir is getting shaky in the absence of Malik

 

[I Believe in the Teesra]

Who do you think is most likely to step their game up Abdul?

 

[Abdul Q]

Missing Agha's bat again and again...he's struggling score some runs.

 

[Abdul Q]

Same result the whole over, bowling and misses, Agha Sabir not scored a run in this over.

Maiden by Ehsan Adil.

PIA 3/1, 2 overs.

 

[Abdul Q]

Who do you think is most likely to step their game up Abdul?

Shehryar Ghani will be the key man tonight, he can play all around the park and can score quick runs when required.
