PSL 2020 l Karachi Kings v Lahore Qalandars | Karachi | Final | 17 November | Lahore innings

[Syed1]

Bye bye Prof ) ) )

 

[marlonbrowndo]

There’s a reason Imad is a gun player in this format. Of course, people who live in la la land won’t realize how valuable he is for a team with our talent pool

 

[choudhary6964]

Saadi umeed bhi le gya Yaar Tu hafeez

 

[JattMaula]

Professor out

 

[Green Patriot]

Important wicket. Don't know when Hafeez might fire.

 

[El Generico]

Hafeez gone, I think Lahore is done tbh. Well 2nd place isn't bad.

 

[Hasan123]

Imad knew Hafeez wouldn't be able to resist.

 

[Syed1]

Haan bhai Lahoriyoon maza ahraha hai?

 

[IAJ]

Hafeez bottling under preassure, something will never change

 

[Tubs]

Nakhli professor goes...

 

[Rana]

Come on Dunk, get us to 150 at least please

 

[Syed1]

Hafeez gone, I think Lahore is done tbh. Well 2nd place isn't bad.

Big step up from finishing dead last for four straight seasons.


Good try Lahore

 

[topspin]

This league is only good for cringe celebrations

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

kinda have a feeling it's Dunk day

 

[sharmaji]

Match is not very exciting so far. Kind of dull, except for the very interesting celebration by Umaid.

 

[choudhary6964]

Hafeez always bottle under pressure that's why his stats are mediocre ICC tournaments

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

shaking in my boots watching two fierce strikers at the crease for Lahore

 

[Abdullah Rabbani]

Hafeez

 

[Rana]

Imad showing no respect to chacha

 

[Justcrazy]

Sohail Akhtar should have promoted himself as a captain and led from the front here

 

[Abdullah Rabbani]

Chacha as usual

 

[HappyWarsFan]

I don't like either team but I really dislike Karachi. So please win Lahore and shut those Karachi boys up.

 

[Rana]

hahahaahhah what was that throw )

 

[IAJ]

Imad turning the ball lols

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Lahore all over the place

 

[choudhary6964]

Lol darter Imad bowling well here

 

[Hasan123]

Imad played with Patel at Nottinghamshire in the T20 blast.

 

[topspin]

Might be a Lahore v Karachi final but I see it as a Lahore v Lahore final. Babar Azam ~ Karachi Kings.

Replace Babar with the likes of Sarfraz and Asad Shafiq and then you'll see the "Kings" of Karachi.

 

[Rana]

Rutherford doing a Pakistan throw

 

[Syed1]

Captaincy kamaal ki ki hai maddy ne.

 

[Justcrazy]

Hafeez has a midget attitude, he always fails in an important situations. He fails again.

 

[watson367]

Sohail Akhtar should have promoted himself as a captain and led from the front here

He’s a brainless hack.

 

[ethan hunt]

Poor pitch.
Karachi has prepared the perfect pitch for their trundlers

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Ben dunks record in this tournament against left arm spinners is nightmarish

 

[Hasan123]

Match is not very exciting so far. Kind of dull, except for the very interesting celebration by Umaid.

It's a fact not many will want to admit.

 

[MMHS]

All criticism intact (I actually wrote that LLQ missed a trick by not picking Liton instead of Tamim, better keeper than Dunk as well), I think the wicket is extremely slow and may be a bit double paced. One thing for sure if Tamim struggles to time it, hardly anyone in world will find it easier to time the shot.

PAK's age old scare of chasing is exposed here - for a 8PM start in late November, on a sluggish track, in a T20, only a PAK team can opt for chasing. This wicket will get faster and better after dew - not necessarily KK will win as another PAK team will chase it, but logic says LQ should have bowled first here.

 

[JibranAnsari]

wow imad turned one

 

[BigShak]

What a trash pitch

 

[Abdullah Rabbani]

Kings just one wicket more

 

[Rana]

OMG chacha back on to Dunk

 

[JibranAnsari]

130 will be a challenging total

Abhi Boss Babar aye ga.

 

[choudhary6964]

Chacha bowling again smash the chacha

 

[JibranAnsari]

yar pitch to koi achi rakhte , test day 5 pitch hai.

 

[MenInG]

Karachi batting isnt that hot either so lets watch and see if LQ get past 140

 

[Archer]

Damn Chadwick Walton sounds awful with the stump mic turned up - can't understand anything

 

[topspin]

What a trash pitch

We love to save our best pitches for the final like we also did in PSL 2

 

[GreenKhan]

Anyone surprised by Hafeez failing ? Only really ever does well when the team is on top . Mental midget . Has done this countless times in t20 world cups and we still want him again to go to another World Cup . As 5 failed world cups are not enough for us .

 

[Shams123]

The pitches have been terrible. Reminds me of those slow uae pitches.

 

[IAJ]

Might be a Lahore v Karachi final but I see it as a Lahore v Lahore final. Babar Azam ~ Karachi Kings.

Replace Babar with the likes of Sarfraz and Asad Shafiq and then you'll see the "Kings" of Karachi.

You can not see at this that way. Babar is playing for Karachi now, so he is a Karachi-man today.

 

[Rana]

There’s a reason Imad is a gun player in this format. Of course, people who live in la la land won’t realize how valuable he is for a team with our talent pool

Agreed man, This guy is the natural captain of Pakistan in this format

 

[MMHS]

Abhi Boss Babar aye ga.

Babar is a fantastic player, brilliant driver ... but he doesn't time it better than Tamim or Hafeez.

 

[Abdullah Rabbani]

150 us challenging total here

 

[El Generico]

The likes of Asad Shafiq and Sarfraz won the last PSl trophy didn't they? Sindh was also the runner up in the National T20 while Central Punjab couldn't make it to the next round.

Karachi would do just fine in an actual Lahore vs Karachi Match.

 

[Dark_Horse]

Karachi derived home advantage fully poor pitch is for trundlers

 

[marlonbrowndo]

[MENTION=147314]topspin[/MENTION] I agree with you often but your logic here is extremely flawed. This is franchise cricket. It’s purely about the name of the team. How many of Lahore’s bowlers are actually from Lahore? Their captain isn’t from Lahore. Hafeez isn’t from Lahore.

 

[JattMaula]

Bad news for Pakistan is that there are two back to back t20 wcs. Prof may play both.

 

[Khan12]

How old is this clown umaid. Embrassing to say the least.

 

[Shams123]

If Lahore can make 140+ and given the slow pitch, they will have a good chance to win. Also, Karachi is over reliant on Babar. If he falls early, then the match can become very difficult for them.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

lahore wanted 200 and now might just struggle to get 150

 

[Khan12]

Babar is a fantastic player, brilliant driver ... but he doesn't time it better than Tamim or Hafeez.

Time or no timing he is by a country mile better then these 2 garbage batsmens.

 

[DRsohail]

This is boring. [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] agreed if tamim can not time it then no one can. Forget about these comments.

 

[Archer]

Do we still we want Sohail Akhter to come out? I think not.

 

[MMHS]

The wicket also doesn't suit him - he is a touch player .... I actually wrote that Tamim is struggling to time it on this track, before even Hafeez started to bat. These are similar tracks where SRL reserves got PAK 0-3 at home and some unknown leggi won MoS. Unless the dew flattens the wicket, Babar will also struggle here. It's not a wicket for top hand players - trust me Iftekhar & Sohail Akhter might out do here any batsmen.

 

[ethan hunt]

Babar is a fantastic player, brilliant driver ... but he doesn't time it better than Tamim or Hafeez.

Babar is a better timer of the ball than tamin.
Tamim today wasnt even trying to time anything. Kept swinging and missing.

[MENTION=147314]topspin[/MENTION] I agree with you often but your logic here is extremely flawed. This is franchise cricket. It’s purely about the name of the team

Adding to this only one player(babar) is from lahore/Karachi .all other in final from different cities

 

[Caved12]

Should have sent Wiese

Not only is it flawed, it also doesn't make sense lol. This is what happened when the actual Karachi vs Lahore teams faced.

All on Dunk and Weise it seems.

22.29 average in 22 innings with 105 SR Disgusting

 

[Syed1]

Adding to this only one player(babar) is from lahore/Karachi

Sharjeel is from Hyderabad which is Karachi-lite anyway.

 

[Rana]

This is boring. [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] agreed if tamim can not time it then no one can. Forget about these comments.

Let’s wait for Babar and Hales to bat on this track as well. Especially with the extra pace coming on to the bat

The fact of the matter is Karachi Kings have been carried by a Lahori. At least the captain of LQ and Hafeez are relatively local to Lahore as they are Punjabis.

 

[imshally81]

Good fielding by Sharjeel...

 

[Syed1]

Don't question the pitch till both teams have batted. I for one KK bowled well and bad balls were minimal.

 

[ethan hunt]

Babar is a fantastic player, brilliant driver ... but he doesn't time it better than Tamim or Hafeez.

Babar is a better timer of the ball than tamin.
Tamim didnt even try and time it today.
Kept swinging hard and missing.

 

[watson367]

Coward Sohail akhtar hiding

 

[Justcrazy]

The pitch has help for spinners, 160 will be a tricky chase here

 

[imshally81]

Samit gone..

 

[Syed1]

[MENTION=93712]MenInG[/MENTION] please control these racists.
