PIA v KRL | Ramadan T20 Cup: 1st Semi-Final | 23/7/13 | PakPassion Reporting Live!

[Abdul Q]

Hello & Welcome everyone to National Stadium Karachi, PakPassion will be reporting live and exclusively from Stadium.

Tonight is the 1st Semi-final encounter where Shoaib Malik's PIA taking on under rated Saeed Anwar Jr's KRL who were not even in listed as favorites but they made it to top four.

PIA giants will play their first game after around 10 days while KRL is in full rhythm and enthusiastic.

PIA is a strong side with likes of skipper Shoaib Malik, Faisal Iqbal, Sarfaraz Ahmad, Aizaz Cheema and many other experienced campaigners but not to mark off KRL's young unit who ensured their victories over favorite sides of the tournament. We are surely going to have an exciting and fighting contest tonight.

Watch Out For, PIA: Shoaib Malik is in prime form and led his team from the front in every other game. Adeel Malik, Shehreyar Ghani are also serving with their best forms.

KRL: Afghan based pacer Usman Khan Shenwari is a center of attention for everyone since the beginning of Group B games, Ali Khan has also been impressive so far with his batting form. With opening pair of Mohd. Yasin & Zain Abbas who took 3 man of the match awards in 4 matches, KRL definitely stands as the toughest competitor among all sides.

Looking forward to Anwar Ali

Also does this mean that Usman Khan will have a choice of playing for either Afghanistan or Pakistan ?

Me looking froward to Another TALNTED Pacer

Salman Saeed PIA Fast bowler Playing today

Taken 25 Wicket.s in Inter region UN-19 Ave 14.84 S/R 26

Ali Raza should had been in Team in place of Aziz :cheema

Good to see So so Much Fast Bowling Talent at UN-19 Level this time around

 

[Runner Up]

So finally Aizaz Cheema got rid of his WIG and decided to go for Hair Transplant. By looking at his TIND, it seems that he has already gone through this process.

 

[Zaini]

anywhere yo can watch this

 

[HASHAM2]

Salman Saeed Look.s Very weak Kid

Remind me of Amir body of 2008

 

[Abdul Q]

Zain Abbas & Mohammad Yasin on the way to another solid start...they both look as perfect opening partners.

 

[Abdul Q]

KRL 17/0, 3 overs

 

[Abdul Q]

Anwar Ali bowled 1 over and gone for 10 runs, but he can comeback anytime.

 

[Abdul Q]

Anwar Ali with his 2nd over, 1st ball and Yasin flicked it through fine leg and goes for four.

 

[Abdul Q]

Same as previous ball, but fielder got some hands off the ball so it didn't cross the boundary, 2 runs more for Yasin.

 

[Abdul Q]

That's beauty, smashing square drive by Yasin.
he's in full swing today.

Anwar Ali got for 10 runs in just 3 balls.

 

[Abdul Q]

Good length...good comeback by Anwar..

 

[Abdul Q]

push through on with soft hands and 2 runs for Zain Abbas.

Anwar Ali conceeded 13 runs in last over.

KRL 30/0, 4 overs.

 

[PakistanKnight]

Anwar Ali must sort it out!

 

[Abdul Q]

Malik coming into the attack himself.

 

[PakistanKnight]

By looking at Anwar Ali,I think the selectors are doing quite a good job keeping him out.

 

[Abdul Q]

I wonder do they both openers really belong to Pakistan?

art of battiing sensibly specially for opening pair...never seen in ages

 

[Abdul Q]

Good over by skipper himself, just 2 conceded.

KRL 32/0, 5 overs.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

I wonder do they both openers really belong to Pakistan?

art of battiing sensibly specially for opening pair...never seen in ages

Yasin looks Good, has a good range of shots.. But Zain is Just a Normal Pak Batsman...

 

[Abdul Q]

Solid opening start and Mohd Yasin & Zain Abbas...it is becoming their habit to give a good opening stand.

2 consecutive fours by Zain Abbas to Rohail.

 

[Abdul Q]
