[Arham_PakFan]

Good over by Patel and IU.

 

[Abdullah719]

Misbah "injured", "rested", or dropped?

'Injured'

 

[Ibad17]

Peshawar will miss Tamim big time after he leaves for Bangladesh tour.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Smith has smacked a of Shadab’s bowling

 

[daytrader]

Starboy getting smashed

 

[MMHS]

'Injured'

They blocked a top bracket quota for this guy & made him captain - now Ruman is leading

 

[Ibad17]

with this start Peshawar should be targeting 190+

 

[Arham_PakFan]

PZ on a roll

 

[Arham_PakFan]

They blocked a top bracket quota for this guy & made him captain - now Ruman is leading

It’s hopefully his last season as a player.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Mainly because the international schedule is filled

WC Qualifiers
Sa-Aus test series
NZ-Eng ODI and Test series

And then you have players like Munro,Johnson,Lynn and Shakib pull out for various reasons

PSL has mostly in all 3 seasons so far got the worst foreign players compared to other league's played worldwide.

 

[MMHS]

It’s hopefully his last season as a player.

Great choice of word - "hopefully".

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Six off the last ball of the over.

PZ 100-1 after 10 overs.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

PSL has mostly in all 3 seasons so far got the worst foreign players compared to other league's played worldwide.

PCB need to change the window of the PSL.

 

[IndianFan2018]

Hopefully more crowd will come in the evening match

Yea... will tune in for next match for sometime!

 

[MMHS]

Is this mandatory in PSL to play 4 foreigners in XI or you have to play with less than 11 men?

 

[AssassinatedDevil]

Playing extremely well so far. Good for peshawar.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Farhan isn't playing?

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Islamabad United have the best franchise owners.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

PCB need to change the window of the PSL.

Won't happen for a while as the PSL is yet to see the best players from Aus, NZ, Eng and SA in PSL.

 

[IndianFan2018]

Off the track - are they broadcasting Vijay Hazare trophy on line? I wish to see Mayank Agarwal in the final.

Yea it's on in Star HD1 and Hotstar App !

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Islamabad United have the best franchise owners.

And worst team?

 

[Executioner]

Mainly because the international schedule is filled

WC Qualifiers
Sa-Aus test series
NZ-Eng ODI and Test series

And then you have players like Munro,Johnson,Lynn and Shakib pull out for various reasons

The timing of the tournament is really bad. This is the major cricket season

Even Fizz, Tamim, Riad will go back in a few days

 

[Titan24]

IU needs to get rid off Tamim and Smith as early as possible otherwise they are gonna post a big score with Sammy and Hafeez yet to come

 

[run-out]

Why faheem not bowls slower ones?

 

[MMHS]

PZ actually have almost won the game already - against their attack, don't see IU kids chasing anything near 170

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Do they have to fill international player quota for the sake of it?

Nobodies like Walton are playing

Yea Sahibzada Farhan would have been a better choice.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Dre russ dismisses Tamim

 

[DeadBall]

Rameez saying that taking wickets now won't help IUs cause.

 

[Titan24]

Love the involvement of IU coaching staff dino, Waqar and Ajmal

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Yea Sahibzada Farhan would have been a better choice.

Should have just quoted my post from 3 pages back.

 

[Titan24]

Yea Sahibzada Farhan would have been a better choice.

Walton is one hell of a striker against pacers, though sometimes struggles against spin

 

[daytrader]

Would love to see a 180+ chase

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Love the involvement of IU coaching staff dino, Waqar and Ajmal

Have to halaal the large sums of money their pocketing.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Walton is one hell of a striker against pacers, though sometimes struggles against spin

Just like his stats suggest. Lol

 

[Titan24]

Very good comeback from Fahim

 

[asadee]

Very good comeback from Fahim

Egg on the face of the Indian poster who was after him a few minutes back

 

[DeadBall]

Zalmi trying to do a Calendar.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

They'd still get 200?

 

[Titan24]

Just like his stats suggest. Lol

I wish people here do their research before posting.

Walton was the highest run scorer in last edition of CPL with avg of 41 and SR of 145

 

[Titan24]

Sammy gone, big wicket by Faheem

 

[babajee]

Faheem is good guys... all the runs he has conceded are fluke

 

[starbuck]

IU pulling things back

 

[asadee]

Faheem keeps taking wickets

 

[ExpressPacer]

Disappointed Misbah isn't playing man.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Good PSL debut for Faheem. We will not see much of his batting though today.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Chadwick Walton is going to destroy PZ. He is arguably the future of the Windies.

 

[Titan24]

Why is Rumman bowling Russel, he and Sami have got 4 overs between them so they both can bowl till the end

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

Why is Rumman bowling Russel, he and Sami have got 4 overs between them so they both can bowl till the end

rumman is captaining?

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Russel not with the ball what he used to be in PSL 1.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Chadwick Walton is going to destroy PZ. He is arguably the future of the Windies.

Evin lewis is even better. But yea Walton has good potential.

 

[Titan24]

Chadwick Walton is going to destroy PZ. He is arguably the future of the Windies.

He needs to play Asghar well, rest he should be able to handle

Ronchi is the danger man

 

[Titan24]

rumman is captaining?

Yup. Misbah has got niggle or two

 

[Titan24]

Russel not with the ball what he used to be in PSL 1.

Coming after a gap so will take some time to get the rythm

 

[babajee]

Rumman is a rich mans Fizz

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Yup. Misbah has got niggle or two

So he might not play tomorrow as well.

 

[Titan24]

Pitches have been really good in the last two matches

 

[Titan24]

Rumman is a rich mans Fizz

Love the way he shapes the new ball into into right handers along with obvious varieties and yorkers at the end

 

[Arham_PakFan]

160-4 after 18

Sami bowling

 

[Titan24]

So he might not play tomorrow as well.

Not sure. But wont be surprised he doesnt

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Peshawar really missing Afridi here.

 

[babajee]

Haris really needs to bat in the top 3 or not play.

 

[Titan24]

Haris is wasted at 4 down but I guess its the only position for him in this lineup or may be 3 down

 

[DeadBall]

Hafeez and Harris playing well for Islu.

 

[Titan24]

Haris really needs to bat in the top 3 or not play.

With Kami, Tamim and Smith thats not gonna happen, the best result for him would be if Hafeez gives him his position

 

[DeadBall]

Peshawar really missing Afridi here.

Yeah at least he would've gotten out faster without wasting many balls.

 

[DeadBall]

Good catch by Dre Russ.

 

[Titan24]

But may be its an opportunity for Haris to develop some big shots

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Yeah at least he would've gotten out faster without wasting many balls.

Yea at the least he would have given you that.

Sad to see how Peshawar lacks finishers.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Haris Sohail is useless in T20s. When will they realize it? Smh.

 

[babajee]

With Kami, Tamim and Smith thats not gonna happen, the best result for him would be if Hafeez gives him his position

After Tamim leaves he should open.

 

[Titan24]

Yea at the least he would have given you that.

Sad to see how Peshawar lacks finishers.

They have Sammy but Faheem got better of him today. Hammad struggled with bowl so dropped

 

[BlueDoritos]

Disgusting batting in the death overs

 

[DeadBall]

Good come back by Pomegranate and co.

 

[BlueDoritos]

Once again Shameless knock by Hafeez.

He even managed to stay not out to boost his average.

 

[BlueDoritos]

PZ still 20 runs short

 

[Madplayer]

Peshawar will miss Tamim big time after he leaves for Bangladesh tour.

When is he leaving?

 

[Syed1]

Happy that Misbah isn't playing

 

[BlueDoritos]

Happy that Misbah isn't playing

Blessing in disguise for IU

 

[Syed1]

Blessing in disguise for IU

Its a blessing for all of Pakistan and world cricket
