PSL 2018 Match 2: Karachi Kings romp to 19-run victory against Quetta Gladiators

[Arham_PakFan]

What a collapse from KK

 

[Rayyman]

Idiot Mickey played an extra pacer on this pitch.

 

[AssassinatedDevil]

Karachi set 149 runs for Quetta in their 20 overs.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

KK finish with 149/9

Target of 150 for QG

 

[BlueDoritos]

Khurram killed our innings. Gave us no chance for a good score.

Yesterday Hafeez and Sangakkara batted the same way but they had good support form others as well.

Karachi lower order is crap.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Quetta Gladiators will win probably

 

[Ibad17]

i have a feeling that change of Kit for Afridi will be unlucky for him.

 

[letme alone]

Quetta Gladiators will win probably

not easily.

 

[Rayyman]

Yesterday Hafeez and Sangakkara batted the same way but they had good support form others as well.

Karachi lower order is crap.

No way lol. Khurram had 95 SR while Sanga had and Hafeez had 110+.

KK hitters are good- Afridi, Imad and even Rizwan (sometimes). If you know anything about cricket it's not unusual to get out quickly trying to accelerate. Lower scores are more common from middle order.
Imad got a good ball from Archer, bouncer on middle and off, not much you can do do with that unless you use your feet or change your guard, but he stayed balanced and tried to uppercut which was fine. Afridi was trash today I accept. Looked like an absolute tailender.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Good bowling by Captain Imad.3-0 after the first over

 

[Titan24]

145 kph from Amir

 

[Arham_PakFan]

What a stupid run out!

 

[Cozyrensetter]

Amir looking motivated

 

[run-out]

Looks like watson was trying hard to get run out

 

[DeadBall]

Reminds me of a certain match recently.

 

[Titan24]

Great stuff from Amir

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Lol Shafiq


Wonder how badly Watson has hurt himself

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Peach from Amir!

4-1 after 2 overs

 

[Titan24]

Surprised that Shinwari is not playing

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Shafiq gone now!

4-2!

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Asad Technique

 

[Titan24]

KK can drop Manzoor and play Shinwari. Would have been great swinging him away from right handers and Amir bringing it in

 

[RehanG]

Surprised that Shinwari is not playing

He's still injured.

 

[Titan24]

He's still injured.

He started bowling in the nets a week ago

 

[RehanG]

Why is Imad copying C7?

 

[Cozyrensetter]

Will be interesting When Kp faces Wahab Johnson

 

[Syed1]

We are going to beat QG for the first time in 5 or 6 tries. Alhumdulilah.... If we win this nobody can stop us.

 

[Rayyman]

I love Rizwan man. Ideal keeper-bat. Athletic, tidy behind the stumps, good footwork, very fit, short in height, chirpy, but not aggressive, bats at a good SR, plays cross-batted shots well, improvises, scoops, sweeps, rotates it well.

I'd take him all day over Saifi is the latter wasn't such a great captain.

 

[Titan24]

I guess Shinwari not playing is more to do with the combination. Previously he was emerging but now he isn’t considered emerging anymore so he will come on only as fourth seamer or in place of Mills if he is left out for some other foreign player

 

[Titan24]

Amir yet to concede a run

 

[Syed1]

Amir is too good for this level... and then we have posters who compare him with gully mohallah bowlers

 

[Arham_PakFan]

5 dots and a four from that over

 

[Titan24]

Pietersen gone.....

 

[Titan24]

Amir is too good for this level... and then we have posters who compare him with gully mohallah bowlers

He is good for any level when he is bending his back.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Mills gets Pietersen on the first ball!

 

[Titan24]

He is too good for any level when he is bending his back.

 

[Titan24]

Amir, Mills, Irfan Jnr and Shinwari bowling that would be some site for pace enthusiasts

 

[Titan24]

Shot by Amin

 

[letme alone]

my team is going to "haaring"

 

[zacattakk]

Looks like Quetta will be relying on Rilee again this year to score a bulk of the runs

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Amin

 

[BlueDoritos]

No way lol. Khurram had 95 SR while Sanga had and Hafeez had 110+.

KK hitters are good- Afridi, Imad and even Rizwan (sometimes). If you know anything about cricket it's not unusual to get out quickly trying to accelerate. Lower scores are more common from middle order.
Imad got a good ball from Archer, bouncer on middle and off, not much you can do do with that unless you use your feet or change your guard, but he stayed balanced and tried to uppercut which was fine. Afridi was trash today I accept. Looked like an absolute tailender.

Denly and world numba one T20 batsman didn't do anything either. Everyone was crap except Ingram.

Khurram was absolute trash.you dont need a good eye and understanding of the game to know it.

 

[Syed1]

I want KK to win but Amin to play a good innings


#Bilal7

 

[Arham_PakFan]

poor short ball by Irfan jr

 

[Syed1]

Right handed Sohail Tanvir

 

[Titan24]

That what I wanted to see. Irfan Jnr touching 138 kph, he has definitely added a yard.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Khurram was absolute trash.you dont need a good eye and understanding of the game to know it.

Who said he did well?

 

[Syed1]

Mr. Amin has 3 scoring shots in his 12 balls

 

[Rayyman]

Denly and world numba one T20 batsman didn't do anything either. Everyone was crap except Ingram.

Denly and Babar at least knew they were slow so got out trying to accelerate. Khurram was selfish, and wasted 6+ overs just himself.

 

[Titan24]

Low pace was what got him murdered against KP. Now thats not gonna be a problem

 

[BlueDoritos]

Denly and Babar at least knew they were slow so got out trying to accelerate. Khurram was selfish, and wasted 6+ overs just himself.

The way this pitch is playing, Looks like he did well by scoring those runs, because Quetta batsmen can't even do that.

 

[Titan24]

Denly and Babar at least knew they were slow so got out trying to accelerate. Khurram was selfish, and wasted 6+ overs just himself.

Exactly and while he was batting it wasnt like wickets were trumbling at the other end and he was asked to hold an end. In T20 cricket you either make an impact or you dont and Khurram didnt

 

[Titan24]

Mills bowls 149 kph and Russouw hits it for six in the covers

 

[Syed1]

Rossouw would be the best or second best batsman in SA..... no wonder they are minnows now they lose so much good talent

 

[troodon]

Pakistan always seem to produce bowlers with real strange actions.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Best shot of this Psl so far by Rossouw

 

[Titan24]

Impressed with Imad’s captaincy, rotating his bowlers well

 

[Syed1]

Imad Wasim is so shoda..... real mummy daddy from Isloo please take him back

 

[Arham_PakFan]

another wicket for Imad,KK firm favorites

 

[BlueDoritos]

Rossouw was struggling against spinners and gets out

 

[DeadBall]

Imad, stop doing the Ronaldo celebration please.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Imad is bowling well but his new celebration is meh...

 

[letme alone]

bad day for my team

 

[BlueDoritos]

Imad Wasim is so shoda..... real mummy daddy from Isloo please take him back

2nd best bowler in the team, and you want him gone. Smh.

 

[Syed1]

Wait a minute what is Faisal Iqbal doing there lol

 

[DeadBall]

Sarfaraz trying to do another split.

 

[Syed1]

Two players who I like are at the crease, but I want them to lose.... LOL

 

[BlueDoritos]

Good shot by Sarfaraz. Pretty unsual, he's got 100+ SR.

 

[DeadBall]

Wait a minute what is Faisal Iqbal doing there lol

He's like the coaches understudy or something.

 

[world cup captain]

Quetta failing as expected. Only if they get rid of a rubbish opener like Shafiq they might stand a chance.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Wait a minute what is Faisal Iqbal doing there lol

He's Mickey's new sidekick

 

[BlueDoritos]

Arabs are enjoying the Psl as well

 

[Syed1]

I want a KK vs QG in Quetta.... looking forward to that day

 

[Syed1]

Man Amin is dangerous.... he needs to get out

 

[Titan24]

It's very erratic. Saw Rahat clock 139

I have seen him bowling in 140s previously as well, his consistency has always been a problem

 

[Syed1]

Too high

 

[Arham_PakFan]

That looks plumb

 

[Titan24]

Sarfaraz big wicket

 

[MRSN]

There goes the acting captain.
