[DRsohail]

Mir Hamza is in.

 

[DRsohail]

Such a trash team quetta is.No chance for Saad Ali and Saud Shakil.

 

[Railu Katta]

PP darling mir Hamza in. He's gonna get smashed and then people will make excuses that it's his first game or he's not a limited over player. Guaranteed

 

[DeadBall]

Devcic used to 130+ bowling, can't put bat to ball against Anwar.

 

[Kashmirilion]

Such a trash team quetta is.No chance for Saad Ali and Saud Shakil.

Don't worry if they make knockouts u will see saud and saad as Watson and peitersen won't be going to Pak.

 

[Imr4n_Khan]

This is a very bad team selection from Quetta. They have already qualified for the play offs and they know Kevin Peterson and most likely Shane Watson aren't going to go to Pakistan. Today would have been ideal time for them to drop Watson and Peterson and try out a new playing XI from the players that would be traveling to Pakistan.

 

[DeadBall]

Don't worry if they make knockouts u will see saud and saad as Watson and peitersen won't be going to Pak.

Watson and KP are foreign players, will probably see Shafiq back in place of Hamza.

 

[Kashmirilion]

Slow pitch doesn't seem like the ball is coming on too well. What a poor pitch.

 

[DeadBall]

Rameez with his usual profound insights. "Wickets are going to be key here"

 

[Rayyman]

Hopefully Fakhar makes a 100 today

 

[Imr4n_Khan]

Quetta have already qualified for the play offs. Today would have been ideal for them to drop Watson and Peterson. Poor thinking from the management/coach/captain.

 

[DeadBall]

Hopefully Fakhar makes a 100 today

Pitch doesn't seem conducive for stroke making.

 

[Rayyman]

Good smash this softie and ruin his confidence

There is a massive benefit to finishing in the top 2. You get 2 changes to make the Final once the playoffs begin.

I was not aware of this. How would the top team get two chances to qualify for the final? I thought once the plays off start then its just knock out from there on....

 

[DeadBall]

LQ picking up the pace.

 

[DeadBall]

The top two play first qualifier and the winner goes directly to the final, the loser has another chance by playing the winner of places 3 and 4.

#1 plays #2 - Winner to the Final

#3 plays #4 - Loser is out

Loser of #1 vs #2 plays winner of #3 vs #4 - Winner to the Final

 

[Imr4n_Khan]

#1 plays #2 - Winner to the Final

#3 plays #4 - Loser is out

Loser of #1 vs #2 plays winner of #3 vs #4 - Winner to the Final

The top two play first qualifier and the winner goes directly to the final, the loser has another chance by playing the winner of places 3 and 4.

Thanks for the clarification.

 

[DeadBall]

Anwar Ali is at least gifted in 1 and a half facet of the game.

 

[Cozyrensetter]

Devich is the player LQ needed.Not trash Akmal.

 

[DeadBall]

Flicked for by Fakhar.

 

[DeadBall]

LQ are a very good team had they got their combinations right before and not choked in pressure situations. Definitely would have preferred them over PZ in the qualifiers.

 

[DeadBall]

Mir Hamza bowling at 127, Wilko saying he isn't as fast as Anwar Ali.

 

[DeadBall]

Hamza gets Salman.

#1 plays #2 - Winner to the Final

#3 plays #4 - Loser is out

Loser of #1 vs #2 plays winner of #3 vs #4 - Winner to the Final

[babajee]

Fakhar

 

[DeadBall]

this is a great format. are we sure PCB comes up with this great format?

I think IPL has the same.

 

[Test champion]

I think IPL has the same.

psl copy from IPL

 

[babajee]

Fakhar Zaman is one of the best openers in world cricket.

 

[Rayyman]

Fakhar Zaman is one of the best openers in world cricket.

Reminds me of an opening version of Dhoni

 

[Gotham Cronie]

this is a great format. are we sure PCB comes up with this great format?

This has been for the format for every season of the PSL.

 

[DeadBall]

That seemed like a no ball.

 

[Justcrazy]

76 / 3

11 overs

 

[badsha001]

did lahore ever got a decision in their favor this whole psl?

 

[srh]

Sarfraz has to be the worst captain for not giving chances to youngsters The best young batsman in Pakistan domestic Saad Ali has still not played a single game in PSL3

 

[Justcrazy]

88 / 3

12 overs

 

[Rayyman]

Fakhar playing well on

Best LOI bat in Pakistan

 

[Arham_PakFan]

fakhar should look to go big and make a ton here.

 

[babajee]

Century karo pleeeease

 

[Rana]

Mir Hamza

Another decent bowler who is 10-15kmh slower than what he should be

 

[Justcrazy]

98 / 3

 

[Rayyman]

Watching Fakhar on fire is the best sight in Pak cricket. I always watch him bat.

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Mir Hamza operating around 128-132kph

Thought he was more in the 136-140 range. I guess not.

Batsmen are playing him with ease. Maybe he's not a T20 bowler?

Navy Man stirring the waters.

Cue “Gulraiz Sadaf: Answer to our Opening Woes”? Thread.

LOL.

 

[DeadBall]

LQ 112-3. Ripe for a collapse.

 

[babajee]

I didn’t know Gulraiz could hit boundaries....

 

[Rayyman]

Gulraiz is a good keeper bat in T20Is

Time to hit for LQ. Get a big score.

 

[Titan24]

Gulraiz Sadaf has improved his game in weeks while playing PSL

 

[Arham_PakFan]

good little innings by Sadaf so far.

 

[Justcrazy]

116 . 3

six overs left

Qalanders should get at least 60 runs here

 

[Titan24]

Rahat the destroyer is here

Cue “Gulraiz Sadaf: Answer to our Opening Woes”? Thread.

LOL.

The answer is Haris without any doubt.

 

[ManFan]

LQ 112-3. Ripe for a collapse.

Life, Death, and Fawad Rana having a silent stroke during a LQ game.

 

[Titan24]

Jason Roy unlucky here, was nice effort on his behalf

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Well fielded by Roy,I think.

 

[ManFan]

The answer is Haris without any doubt.

I agree.

 

[Rayyman]

Gulraiz Sadaf has improved his game in weeks while playing PSL

He's trolling waterboy

Meanwhile Rameez called a timeout and made me miss that six

 

[Titan24]

Fakhar what a talent this guy is!! He is a star

 

[babajee]

Fakhar you ATG

The century is for the taking

DONT THROW IT AWAY

 

[Syed1]

LQ have started playing after they are already out of the tournament

 

[Titan24]

Lolllll what a shot OMG

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Fakhar on fire.

 

[Rayyman]

Fakhar zaman destroying rahat ali!

 

[Fahdi]

:6

Shot yaar

 

[babajee]

Fluke innings. LQ knocked out - no pressure. Trundler attack etc etc.

 

[Titan24]

Fakhar zaman destroying rahat ali!

Its more to do with Fakhar than with Rahat

 

[shokz1408]

Fakhar Zaman is on Fire!!

 

[Titan24]

QG missing Laughlin here, they managed to fit in Roy though

 

[DeadBall]

Insane hitting by Fakhar, Rahat dutifully serving pies in his zone though.

 

[Rana]

Fakhar just ended Rahat's career

 

[Madplayer]

Fluke innings. LQ knocked out - no pressure. Trundler attack etc etc.

Fakhar is the last man anybody could accuse of wilting under pressure.

 

[Rayyman]

Its more to do with Fakhar than with Rahat

Garbage trundler is Rahat. Bakwaas attitude getting a rightful phainty.

 

[Azeem Zafar]

We're blessed to have a batsman like Fakhar considering our batting culture & resources. This guy is such a composed & brave hitter of cricket ball.
