PSL 2018 Match 30: Karachi Kings comfortably defeat Islamabad United to qualify for playoffs

[ManFan]

Horrible. If Misbah has any shame, he should retire after his season.

 

[Syed1]

Time for Big Mac and Hasan123 to turn off their tellies

 

[DeadBall]

Afridi giving Misbah the respect he deserves for improving their chances for qualification.

 

[Khan12]

Afridi doesn't celebrate Misbah's wicket... well done. I guess some teenagers mature early

He knows his batting is on irfans level.

 

[Imr4n_Khan]

IU should be thankful Misbah is out

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

Afridi didn't celebrate

#Respect

 

[DRsohail]

job well done for KK by Misbah.

 

[Hasan123]

Time for Big Mac and Hasan123 to turn off their tellies

I told you already Misbah isn't my favourite player.

 

[babajee]

Talat needs to destroy KK

 

[DRsohail]

Horrible. If Misbah has any shame, he should retire after his season.

When it come to pakistani players dont talk about shame etc,He should have retired last year.Was clearly struggling.

 

[Syed1]

Talat needs to destroy KK

I want IU to lose but Talat to do well

 

[Hasan123]

160 plus looking difficult from here .

 

[Hasan123]

Big shot by Walton.

 

[ManFan]

When it come to pakistani players dont talk about shame etc,He should have retired last year.Was clearly struggling.

The stupid senior culture. It plagues Pakistan everywhere.

 

[babajee]

Misbah fans will come out in full force when IU win the PSL... and give credit to his captaincy

 

[Big Mac]

I understand that but why Misbah. He shouldn't even be playing this tournament as he is clearly not good enough anymore.bhes blocking other desverving players.

Which batsman need batting time more than he does? Talat and Asif are in good form, Faheem isn't going to be needed to bat in the top 6 in the playoffs, Sahibzada didn't impress and isn't needed now that Duminy has been killing it at the top, which player should have batted in that spot today?

Nothing will change the fact that he is a tailender no matter how much “batting time” he gets.

 

[babajee]

Noooooooooo why would you throw it away to the worst bowler in Pakistan

 

[Syed1]

Talat fails... aray yaar I wanted him to smash it all parts when Mickey was watching

NO amount of batting practice will improve his reflexes that have totally deteriorated since the past couple of years.

 

[Madplayer]

That was an incredible shot though

 

[Hasan123]

Even though Talat is out with that shot,one thing I can see in his batting is that he tries to play through the offside which many Pakistan batsmen now days don't. Has a few issues to work on . But I'm excited by him . An attacking leftie. We don't have many of them in the middle order.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Big wicket for KK.Talat gone

 

[babajee]

Talat fails... aray yaar I wanted him to smash it all parts when Mickey was watching

It’s Misbah’s fault...

 

[Madplayer]

Asif hack in. Customary 20 incoming.

 

[Hasan123]

A chance for Asif Ali to impress.

 

[Syed1]

It’s Misbah’s fault...

I want to agree but I don't see the logic

 

[Khan12]

Fahim, shadab,amad,gohar, Hussain who are better this shameless misbah. His bats like a pure no 11 and that's where he should bat.

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

Irfan Jnr is the kinda bowler who takes wickets against the run of play.

Maybe it is because teams are just looking to whack him every ball or does he have potential?

 

[babajee]

I want to agree but I don't see the logic

Well that 19(23) put pressure on Talat to up the ante

 

[daytrader]

It’s Misbah’s fault...

Yup. It's always Misbah's fault

 

[Arham_PakFan]

300 T20 wickets for Shahid Afridi

 

[Big Mac]

It’s Misbah’s fault...

Isn't everything?

 

[Hasan123]

Walton

 

[babajee]

Rana Jee to save the day today

 

[Khan12]

Hack Walton gone.

 

[babajee]

Isn't everything?

Pretty much.

 

[Khan12]

Rana Jee to save the day today

He's got enough time to bat today if he's in next.

 

[ManFan]

Rana Klusner to whack KK into submission.

 

[Big Mac]

All part of the master plan to make sure a half fit Afridi plays against them in the next round

 

[daytrader]

Walton's out - Misbah's fault

 

[Madplayer]

Afridi is trying to set up Shadab here.

 

[Hasan123]

Wanted to see Fahim bat. Shadab has had time in the middle already.

 

[Madplayer]

One thing Cannot be denied is that Asif has a gift of timing even though he is a pure hack.

 

[shah_1]

Misbah was batting like a tailender against fast bowlers.

He should know that his time is up as a player, should pursue coaching or management in PCB.

 

[Hasan123]

Poor fielding from the mercenary.

 

[Madplayer]

Its very good that morgan isnt going to Pakistan. Seems disinterested.

 

[babajee]

Misbah was batting like a tailender against fast bowlers.

He should know that his time is up as a player, should pursue coaching or management in PCB.

No not coaching... there’s already too many Misbah clones in Pakistan

 

[ManFan]

Misbah was batting like a tailender against fast bowlers.

He should know that his time is up as a player, should pursue coaching or management in PCB.

That’s an even worse role in Pakistan cricket for him to have. He has damaged the mindset of many Pakistani batting youth. Not to mention his love for oldies.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

for Asif

 

[babajee]

Asif is worth a go in the T20 side.

 

[daytrader]

That’s an even worse role in Pakistan cricket for him to have. He has damaged the mindset of many Pakistani batting youth. Not to mention his love for oldies.

Right there are so many oldies in Islamabad's squad. He's groomed more youngsters than anyone else involved in PCB cricket - let's not make everything Misbah's fault

 

[Madplayer]

What a big hit. Massive. Biggest in this tournament?

 

[babajee]

Yep, Irfan Jr is the worst bowler in world cricket.

 

[daytrader]

Irfan jr. gets hit for sixes #Misbah'sfault

 

[Big Mac]

That's a heck of a hit

 

[Third Man]

Horrible. If Misbah has any shame, he should retire after his season.

If he had any, he should've retired last year.

 

[Big Mac]

Irfan jr. gets hit for sixes #Misbah'sfault

Eoin Morgan won't go to Pakistan #BlameMisbah

 

[Usman Chadda]

This Asif Ali is a clean hitter of the ball. Worth a go in the T20 side.

 

[Madplayer]

Rameez is impressed with Asif Ali. Lol

 

[ManFan]

Right there are so many oldies in Islamabad's squad. He's groomed more youngsters than anyone else involved in PCB cricket - let's not make everything Misbah's fault

Who made everything his fault? There really is no middle ground for Misbah fans, is there?

 

[daytrader]

Eoin Morgan won't go to Pakistan #BlameMisbah

He dropped a catch also #Misbah'sfault

 

[Madplayer]

This #misbah'sfault is getting boring now.

 

[daytrader]

Who made everything his fault? There really is no middle ground for Misbah fans, is there?

When you say "He has damaged the mindset of many Pakistani youth" it's clear that you blame him for our poor ODI performances when he was not the problem - it's misplaced blame on your end

 

[Titan24]

Among new guys Asif Ali, Hussain Talat,and Sohail Akhtar are probably the best strikers we have.

 

[Third Man]

Rameez about Afridi "What a performance. When Karachi needed him to write a story for them ...". What story. What is he talking about"?

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Asif Ali is on fire

 

[babajee]

Get Asif Ali in the Pakistan team...

I know his domestic record is terrible but he’s worth a go.

 

[Titan24]

Have we found new Sharjeel???
Asif Ali used to be an opener

 

[Madplayer]

Phenomenal swing of the bat by Asif Ali.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Four sixes for Asif so far.

34 off 13

 

[Madplayer]

Lets try a bouncer for a change.

 

[babajee]

The best thing is that he’s smashing Mickey’s team around.

Edit:

OUT

 

[Ummii]

How on earth we've selected Irfan junior. He one of the crappiest bowler of all time.

 

[Big Mac]

Who made everything his fault? There really is no middle ground for Misbah fans, is there?

You said he's damaged the mindset of so many Pakistani youngsters and therefore being a coach would cause great damage to Pakistani cricket.

Yet Hussain Talat is the young batsman that has created the biggest hype this season and now people are starting to think about adding Asif Ali to the Pakistan squad. Throw Shadab Khan into the list of youngsters that have come up under Misbah and yeah, talking about the youngsters on the Islamabad squad is perfectly valid.

Don't say stupid things and then act surprised when people point it out.

 

[Ibad17]

150+ still on the card

 

[Madplayer]

Bowled ) Deano is in disbelief

 

[Usman Chadda]

Holy **** this guy is seriously good when the ball is in his arc. The confidence Misbah has given this guy has done wonders. Clean hitting, absolutely clean hitting.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Bowled!Mills gets Asif

 

[Madplayer]

Holy **** this guy is seriously good when the ball is in his arc. The confidence Misbah has given this guy has done wonders. Clean hitting, absolutely clean hitting.

And also clean bowled him
