[Abdullah719]

​

Peshawar Zalmi Team
Mohammad Hafeez, Tamim Iqbal, Kamran Akmal, Eoin Morgan, Shakib al Hasan, Sohaib Maqsood, Shahid Afridi, Darren Sammy, Wahab Riaz, Hasan Ali, Junaid Khan.

Quetta Gladiators Team
Asad Shafiq, Ahmed Shehzad, Kevin Pietersen, Rilee Rossouw, Sarfraz Ahmed, Mahmudullah Riad, Thisara Perera, Mohammad Nawaz, Anwar Ali, Hassan Khan, Zulfiqar Babar.

Sarfraz Ahmed won the toss and opted to field once again. Both teams made a few changes with Zalmi including the Bangladeshi duo of Tamim and Shakib. Tamim started the innings well for Zalmi but Hafeez stalled at the crease, making a painstaking 16 before being dismissed by Mahmudullah. Kamran Akmal was soon out to Hasan Khan for a duck whilst Rossouw came on to bowl in a surprise change and straight away dismissed Morgan. However, Maqsood gave some impetus to the innings before rain halted play. The overs were reduced to 16 a side, and Zalmi went after the bowlers once the match resumed. Tamim was impressive as Peshawar finished on a high at 117/3 in 16 overs with the opener making 62* off just 46 balls. Quetta's chase never got underway due to intermittent rain delays with the match ultimately called off as both teams shared the points.

Next match: Islamabad United vs Karachi Kings

Quetta would have won it

if rain continues, the fans of Karachi Zimbabwes would be licking their lips, a draw is on the cards after the great depression of 3 defeats in a row

BPL will always be ahead of us because it has been happening in your country's grounds. The local support the rivalries in cities, the home ground homegrown advantages and performing in your own city is something these players are missing..

Come on PSL is better than BPL but I don't think PSL will get any better with UAE fans being bored of it.

Umar Akmal averages over 50 in BPL

Sorry bro cant believe that

He played only 2 BPLs, 3 and 4, was okay in BPL-3, in BPL-4 he was as poor as he has been in this PSL season so far. Infact, he had 2/3 ducks last BPL.

Shehzad averages over 50 tho
