PSL 2018 Eliminator 1: Peshawar Zalmi knock out Quetta Gladiators with 1-run win in thrilling finish

[dauntless]

He really seems down to earth man. Rahat ali.

 

[MMHS]

Actually, QZ's tactics is perfect - they are closing with Nawaz & Sarfraz, keeping Rossouw, Mahmudullah & Perera at stock. Those 3 can chase 60 in last 6 overs.

 

[Hasan123]

Nawaz has had a impressive PSL

 

[babajee]

SarfiBabarHaris bhai would be proud right now

#WhereAreYou?

 

[dauntless]

Quetta is crushing the hopes now

 

[Hasan123]

Nice shot by Sarfraz. Dawson shouldn't cause him any issues.

 

[Syed1]

Another six by specialist captain






Koi tou rokh lo issay PP experts ke career khatum kar raha hai

 

[ManFan]

SarfiBabarHaris bhai would be proud right now

#WhereAreYou?

Miss that guy so much.

except they might not have to chase that much. 7 rpo required now

 

[DeadBall]

With Roussow, Mahamadullah and Perrera to come, QG pretty much got this in the bag.

 

[Hasan123]

Nawaz just needs to rotate the strike.

 

[Syed1]

Nawaz slowed down quite a lot

 

[MMHS]

except they might not have to chase that much. 7 rpo required now

That's actually because Nawaz is laying his game of career - bowled brilliantly, now batting to the task. PZ bowling was poor, may be for dew.

 

[dauntless]

Need to build pressure

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Nawaz is out

 

[Hasan123]

QG are in the driver seat. They have enough firepower to come with a set batsmen at the crease.

 

[Gotham Cronie]

Wth was that

 

[Hasan123]

Wicket for PZ. Need to get more wickets. QG should win the game if they face all the overs.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Nawaz's luck ran out, no more lucky boundaries.

 

[Syed1]

This is a fairly exciting match for a neutral lots of twists and turns.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

They haven't shown speed of any bowl today since there are no speed guns

No they showed a couple today.

Edit:it was overall speed throughout the tournament

 

[babajee]

Goodbye specialist captain

 

[DeadBall]

Nawaz getting out after Sarfaraz laid into him and now Sarfaraz himself gets out.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Sarfraz too...same shot by both the batsmen

 

[Syed1]

Match turned on its head WOW

 

[Hasan123]

Poor shot from Sarfraz. PZ back in the game.

 

[Madplayer]

National captain trying something way beyond his capabilities . And he is supposed to be the intelligent one.

 

[Gotham Cronie]

This is a fairly exciting match for a neutral lots of twists and turns.

Yeah but not everybody was in their seat for the toss and there was a time in the 1st over where the camera man didn't follow the ball correctly.

 

[Syed1]

This league is so amateur and poor and embarrassing

 

[DRsohail]

I have never seen Ryad playing a rash shot.He has been one of the best in chasing .He takes everything in a calculated way.Very impressed with him.Even if things are not happening for him,he will find a way to do it while Tamim will do umar akmal in 8 out of 10 times.Not taking any credit away from him but my observation.Today Tamim ........I rate both of them very highly.
Will love to see them in Pak team.Not citizenship though.lolz [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION]

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Strategic timeout

 

[Titan24]

Impressive bowling by youngster Sameen. Pretty well directed bouncer to Sarfaraz

 

[Arham_PakFan]

WT20 2016 vs India.

Overall,I agree.

 

[ManFan]

Game turned in 2 balls. WOW.

He might fail today - it doesn't work for batsman to play games after moving to another country. But, QZ will need him, if they are to play one more game.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Could be 50-50 now.

 

[Hasan123]

This league is so amateur and poor and embarrassing

Quality has gotten better the longer the tournament has gone on. Disappointed in our batting talents for the most part.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Quality has gotten better the longer the tournament has gone on. Disappointed in our batting talents for the most part.

Hate the fact that Kamran is the top scorer. he's been great for PZ but people would've loved to someone else at the top of the charts, like Talat, Sahibzada etc.

 

[srh]

National captain trying something way beyond his capabilities . And he is supposed to be the intelligent one.

If he was intelligent why would he play Asad Shafiq?

 

[babajee]

Quality has gotten better the longer the tournament has gone on. Disappointed in our batting talents for the most part.

That’s because there were hardly any batting talents on show.

Misbah for one took up Farhan’s spot...

 

[letme alone]

qu was at the top but now pz.... that is the beauty of psl. no need to think negatively.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Lahore is seeing an exciting and close match.

Zalmi for me from here.

 

[emranabbas]

Rubbish league, boring games, very poor crowd attendance and boring crowd, cameraman ain’t got a clue what he’s doing

 

[MMHS]

If he was intelligent why would he play Asad Shafiq?

He is damn intelligent, street smart; but can't say that for his selection & sometimes on filed "action".

 

[Syed1]

If this was an IPL match the team would have scored 180 and the other team would have chased it in 10 over.



#India's batting culture

 

[Hasan123]

That’s because there were hardly any batting talents on show.

Misbah for one took up Farhan’s spot...

Islamabad have given loads of youngsters a chance. But Farhan should have gotten more chances. But the rest of the teams have hardly given young batsmen a chance.

Badar was at 7 for MS. QG haven't used Saud or Saad. PZ have no young batsmen in the squad. Same for KK.

 

[Madplayer]

If he was intelligent why would he play Asad Shafiq?

Bros before brains.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Danger man. Gotta take him out immediately.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Now would be a good time to bring back Dawson.

Save Hasan and Wahab for the final 4.

 

[MMHS]

Is Shakib coming to PSL (in case..), or BCB has gagged him for a week or two? This basically will cost him few K bucks.

 

[Hasan123]

Hate the fact that Kamran is the top scorer. he's been great for PZ but people would've loved to someone else at the top of the charts, like Talat, Sahibzada etc.

Would rather see unknown Pakistan players than TTFs and rubbish overseas players.

 

[Justcrazy]

two wickets have derailed the chase

 

[Syed1]

One more wicket and it'll be really hard for QG

 

[ManFan]

If I was Sammy, I would bring in either Wahab or Hasan and end the game right now.

 

[MMHS]

Mahmood drives among best, it has to be short against him. May be one over from Wahab with everything above chest line. He is too cool to miss out if they feed him singles with asking around 8/9 - he'll make up in one shot.

 

[Justcrazy]

Quetta tail can hit big hits

 

[Hasan123]

Impressive bowling so far by Sameen.

 

[Hasan123]

Lucky runs for QG.

 

[Syed1]

They are making Sameen look like ATG

 

[MMHS]

That leg bye 4, will be crucial here. It would have taken asking to 8.5.

 

[Madplayer]

What a shot Mahmadullah. Wowww

 

[Hasan123]

High quality shot by Mahamdullah

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Nice shot by Riyad

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Sammy hobbling

 

[MMHS]

2 each from Wahab, Umaid & Hasan - Sammy has got his chart perfectly. Only if he could bowl that one over of Dawson.

 

[Hasan123]

Cant afford to give wides here.

 

[MMHS]

That's not wide, sorry - batsman charged forward.

 

[Justcrazy]

54 from 40 balls.

 

[Hasan123]

Full toss not put away.

 

[Syed1]

This Zalmi bowling attack is better than many international sides

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Good shot by Riyad

 

[Hasan123]

Mahmadullah is the key wicket here.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Winning last years PSL in Lahore for Zamli will give them an advantage right now!

 

[Arham_PakFan]

50 runs required off 6 overs

 

[IAJ]

Bowling Umaid!

 

[Hasan123]

It will be interesting to see who PZ use for that over . Hasan and Wahab have 2. Umaid has one.

 

[IAJ]

Still Perera to come, Gladiators have som real big hitters here.

 

[MMHS]

Take a guess - whom Sammy will give the 19th over. My hunch is Wahab.

 

[DeadBall]

Mere Rashke Qamar playing

 

[IAJ]

Hasan Ali looks fit, just like me.
