PSL 2018 Match 7: Karachi Kings maintain 100% record with a five-wicket win over Peshawar Zalmi

[asadee]

Poor poor pitches..we will never find big hitters this way

 

[Justcrazy]

Karachi Kings should win this game easily.

 

[Justcrazy]

eight down

 

[MMHS]

But to be fair even foreign talents like McCullum, Russel, Smith, Tamim, Ronchi, Pollard, Bravo etc are also yet to do anything substantial with the bat.

Recall my post, which some people didn't like that time - most of PSL foreigners are using PSL for them rather than other way. Instead of those "stars", it was better to arrange PSL in PAK & bring whoever is willing to come. Apart from Tamim, hardly any other from your list are active in International these days - Malik, MoHa, KAkmal ...... are also from that group, only because of PAK's man crash for anyone over 40........

I hope, now you should understand where that Mominul example came for LQ - PSL teams are failing to play-out 20 overs on perfect batting strips .......

 

[Justcrazy]

83 / 8

24 balls.

 

[babajee]

If they get to 110, we will witness a thriller.

Do you think Azhar could have been useful for LQ?

 

[Sirris]

At least the crowd is cheerful.

 

[Sirris]

Ok I just saw Faisal Iqbal in the KK dugout with a pad and pen in his hand. I need to reconsider my support for KK now.

 

[Justcrazy]

Smith playing a lone hand.

 

[Justcrazy]

Smith.

 

[MMHS]

Do you think Azhar could have been useful for LQ?

No - he has ZERO shot making ability. Play out 20 overs doesn't mean shoulder arming balls a foot out side off.

 

[Justcrazy]

94 / 8

18 balls to go

run a ball will get to 112

 

[Sirris]

wth? Amir wont bowl out?

 

[Justcrazy]

Smith playing really well.

 

[babajee]

Get 130 today pleeeeease

nepotism everywhere.
must be drawing his fav disney character.

 

[DeadBall]

Smith giving PZ something to bowl at.

 

[Justcrazy]

103 / 8

12 balls to go.

 

[MMHS]

Why people are obsessed so much with Sarfraz's keeping - like best WK in PAK?

 

[asadee]

Rizwan is super athletic

 

[Barragan]

Eww.....

What the heck was that thing?

 

[DeadBall]

Isnt he that guy from the desi youtube videos.

 

[Sirris]

nepotism everywhere.
must be drawing his fav disney character.

A Mickey Mouse doodle most probably.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Karachi is winning this tournament. Said it here first.

 

[Justcrazy]

Smith carrying on.

 

[punter17]

Pathetic captaincy by IMAD. Should have completed the quota of Amir at the depth. Or is he letting the other team set a reasonable target? What the actual F? #Fixing

 

[asadee]

Why isn't Amir bowling

 

[Barragan]

Another run out by smith

Riaz can hit a few, so unnecessary at this time

 

[Sirris]

Pathetic captaincy by IMAD. Should have completed the quota of Amir at the depth. Or is he letting the other team set a reasonable target? What the actual F?

yeah, wanted to see Amir's bowling, the only reason i am still tuned in.

 

[Justcrazy]

nine down

 

[DeadBall]

Needless from Wahab

 

[Justcrazy]

112 / 9

six balls left

Can they get another 10 - 12 more runs.

 

[punter17]

Imad is not stupid. Either Amir is injured, or he is letting other team score for a reasonable contest. Either way, bad news for Pakistan Cricket & PSL.

Lol @ Bopara with the last over. What is happening? I have lost whatever faith i had in this game.

 

[babajee]

I just realised what has ruined the PSL. T10 is making these batsmen forget about singles and doubles. Just boundaries.

 

[DeadBall]

Karachi is winning this tournament. Said it here first.

Lets wait for the chase.

 

[Sirris]

Seems like Amir is unfit after bowling two opening overs.

 

[Josh]

Pathetic display of batting in PSL. It's not going to be popular if this continues

 

[DRsohail]

If they acore 120 i think it can be a thriller.

 

[Titan24]

I guess Amir is resting for the LQ encounter

 

[DeadBall]

Lol @ Bopara with the last over. What is happening? I have lost whatever faith i had in this game.

I doubt he would let others put a decent total as this is not a charity contest or an exhibition match. He most probably is injured.

 

[letme alone]

m. irfan good bowling and three run out involed

 

[MMHS]

Watching in patches in between the soccer final - is every thing straight here? PZ is awarded at least 25 gift runs.

 

[punter17]

Where are the signs of him being unfit? I didn't see him limping or whatever. This is not right.

 

[Justcrazy]

smith

 

[Justcrazy]

What a finish by Him !!!

 

[babajee]

Should be a decent game now.

 

[Barragan]

That is a competitive total now.

Why was Amir in the dressing room?

This over could be costly.

 

[Justcrazy]

132 is Target .

 

[Sirris]

Everyone tried there best to make D Smith look like a villain but the guy ends up being the hero.

 

[Sirris]

Where are the signs of him being unfit? I didn't see him limping or whatever. This is not right.

I am just speculating. No one knows what's up.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Smith may just have won the match for Zalmi

 

[Titan24]

Where are the signs of him being unfit? I didn't see him limping or whatever. This is not right.

He had a side strain he looks fine in the interview. He says just to make sure the side strain doesnt get bad he has taken the precaution

 

[Barragan]

That is a competitive total now.

Why was Amir in the dressing room?

This over could be costly.

Okay, Amir felt pain in his right side or something and was advised by the doctor to get a rest.

 

[Titan24]

I guess KK should rest Amir for tmws match and let Shinwari play

 

[Sirris]

lol, he is fit enough for the interview.

It's obvious now. This match was just not big enough for the big match player so he decided to have a rest.

 

[DeadBall]

Amir clearing the speculations here. Has a bit of a niggle and doesn't want to worsen it in this match.

 

[Titan24]

Okay, Amir felt pain in his right side or something and was advised by the doctor to get a rest.

Yes side strain, pretty common but if one doesnt rest and push the body then it can be stressful for the body

 

[Titan24]

Shinwari should play in tmws match instead of Amir in such way Amir will get rest of two three days befoe their next encounter

 

[Titan24]

I have seen Amir getting side strains and pain in the calf for almost a year now. Though nothing have been serious but he always looks uncomfortable. When will he get 100% fit?

 

[last_knight]

After the drafts, I thought KK would turn out to be bad chasers. Let's see.

 

[MMHS]

Should be reasonable chase for KK

 

[punter17]

Have we run out of talent that a 33 year old, umaid was selected as a new-ball bowler? Where are the youngsters?

 

[Arham_PakFan]

for Denly

 

[Titan24]

Have we run out of talent that a 33 year old, umaid was selected as a new-ball bowler? Where are the youngsters?

He was the highest wicket taker in national T20 and took 4 wkts in the last match against IU

 

[Sirris]

Have we run out of talent that a 33 year old, umaid was selected as a new-ball bowler? Where are the youngsters?

For pakistani standards a 33 years old is considered a "youngster".

 

[Arham_PakFan]

more for Denly.

Won’t be surprised if England recall him for T20

 

[Sirris]

Faisal Iqbal seems to be taking some serious notes about the match.

 

[punter17]

Faisal Iqbal seems to be taking some serious notes about the match.

In what capacity? Is he also in the squad?

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Four for Manzoor

 

[Sirris]

In what capacity? Is he also in the squad?

I have no clue how or when it happened but he is sitting in the Karachi dugout and seems to be some kind of team mentor/coach/analyst/disney expert.

 

[MMHS]

Has Manzoor scored anything outside off?

 

[DeadBall]

Jordan is useless in the opening overs, should use him from 14 onwards.

 

[punter17]

Should have just started with a spinner or wahab.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

What a catch by Ibtisam!Manzoor

 

[Titan24]

What a catch by Ibtisam Sheikh

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Jordan is useless in the opening overs, should use him from 14 onwards.

 

[Sirris]

Amazing catch by the nerdy kid.

 

[Titan24]

KK should draft in Mukhtar Ahmed for the opening slot

 

[DeadBall]

Another good catch by bacha party.
