[MenInG]

I want someone other than Kamran Akmal to score for PZ! Misbah needs to make his mark felt as a player they need and not a mascot.

 

[Shafi]

Quetta Gladiators has lots of youngster, I guess.

Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Asghar, Danish Aziz, Ahsan Ali, Ghulam Mudassar, Mohammad Hasnain,Azam Khan and Jalat Khan,

Does PZ have anyone except Sameen Gul in the emerging category? Tired of seeing 130k 'fast' bowlers

 

[Khan12]

No saud shakeel. People love to talk rubbish about inzi not selecting him but are quiet when sarfraz doesn't select him. Hypriocicy?

 

[Mir jibran]

how is ahmed shehzad playing when he is a supplement pick ? have they changed the rules ?

 

[Usman Chadda]

The best two sides of the tournament facing off right now.

Quetta look to have real firepower in their batting line-up, all the way from 1 to 6.

 

[Rana]

Kamran gets things started with a lovely boundary

 

[Rana]

Very good start by Nawaz. Interesting

 

[Hbomb00]

Sarfraz behing the stumps nostalgic

 

[Rana]

Clean hit by Kamran. He looks to keep going from where he left off also!

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Oh Quetta, why couldn't you play your younger guns?

Can't believe Saud Shakeel, Ahson Ali are not playing.

 

[Goharn]

how is ahmed shehzad playing when he is a supplement pick ? have they changed the rules ?

There is no rule limiting the playing time of supplementary picks, the only restriction comes on how much they can be paid.

 

[Hbomb00]

Bad review

 

[Goharn]

Everytime I see Irfan Jr, I want to stop watching PSL. This is guy will never even come close to playing for Pak, he is average at best.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Misbah ul Haq blocking the way for Umar Amin, Imam ul Haq.

Let's see if this move pays off.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Everytime I see Irfan Jr, I want to stop watching PSL. This is guy will never even come close to playing for Pak, he is average at best.

How is this guy still an emerging player? He has been one in every season.

 

[Goharn]

Misbah ul Haq blocking the way for Umar Amin, Imam ul Haq.

Don't mind that. They both don't have any business playing in t20s either. They are all just terrible picks.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Don't mind that. They both don't have any business playing in t20s either. They are all just terrible picks.

That's true and logical from the franchise's POV.

But both play or still can play for Pak in limited overs. So you would want to invest in them.

 

[Goharn]

How is this guy still an emerging player? He has been one in every season.

He was emerging until last year. I believe his regular category now. Quetta is playing Ghulam Mudassar and Danish Aziz for Emerging category.

 

[Mir jibran]

earlier u can only use a local supplimentary pick when any player from main squad was injured

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

You have to play two emerging this season? Or did Quetta just play an extra?

Was so excited to see Saud Shakeel. What a pity.

 

[iPakistani]

Sohaib Maqsood has always been a class batsman

 

[Chokli]

Can Maxsood bowl?

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Massive hit Sohaib Maqsood with so much ease. Just a push.

A lot better than Asif Ali

 

[Chokli]

Sohaib Maqsood has always been a class batsman

unfortunately for him the class goes missing when playing internationals

 

[Goharn]

That's true and logical from the franchise's POV.

But both play or still can play for Pak in limited overs. So you would want to invest in them.

They are just terrible picks, there are far better players who can play for Pakistan in LOIs and should be invested in. Zeeshan Malik, Hassan Mohsin, Rohail Nazir to name a few of the top of my head

 

[Greenstorm]

Signature shot of Maxi.

 

[Titan24]

Just have to play minimum one and they are playing one which is Ghulam Mudassar.

 

[rhony]

Tanvir and Irfan Jr have same bowling coach??

 

[rhony]

So far Pak national team players showed how they are a class above the rest in Pak.

 

[a_tahir]

Just have to play minimum one and they are playing one which is Ghulam Mudassar.

Saud isn't emerging.
I thought he was silver?

 

[Goharn]

My bad, danish Aziz was the 21st pick and Ghulam is the emerging for today.
I think Sarfraz/Moeen won't play Saud. The let him warm the bench for the entirety of the last season. You know, nobody can take over the akmals and Shehzad.

Shehzad was supplementary yet got in. But poor Saud can't make it.

 

[ARK Rafay]

2 Pankhas Bowling together

 

[Titan24]

Decent opening spell from Irfan jnr

 

[Kashmirilion]

What's happened to ibtisam sheikh

 

[asadee]

Boring match this one

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Boring match this one

Zalmi, Quetta usually do not have those star players, but a lot utility players between a few stars.

It has worked for them in the past. Given them stability.

 

[Markhor]

Not a Kamran or Maqsood fan but they'd earn some brownie points if they ensure pseudo all-rounder Mohammad Nawaz has no chance of returning to the national team.

 

[imshally81]

Slow start by Zalmi...

 

[Goharn]

What's happened to ibtisam sheikh

Was picked in SP category by PZ. Prolly won't get a game since the age is not on his side. Too young.

 

[imshally81]

 

[topspin]

QG's bowling attack on paper looks weak

 

[Goharn]

Both the Pakhas are terrible fielders with terrible actions and terrible cricketers. I hope they take their terrible self far away from Pakistan cricket.

 

[Markhor]

Now this is why I say PSL is an average league.

Kamran should be back in the pavilion. What an awful drop.

 

[Goharn]

Really wish Umar can have a PSL1 like season. If Asif is the best hitter we have for No. 6 slot. Umar wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

 

[Markhor]

I miss that guy terribly.

 

[Goharn]

Now this is why I say PSL is an average league.

Kamran should be back in the pavilion. What an awful drop.

PSL has the best catching rate. Every team and league will have terrible fielders. Just so you know, BBL which is apparently the best after IPL has the worst catching percentage.

 

[Markhor]

Why is Fawad Ahmed playing ahead of Mohammad Asghar ?

At least do justice to the young upcoming talent who have a chance of making it to the national team.

Solid factual stuff.

 

[imshally81]

Zainab behan.?

 

[Goharn]

Fawad is the international pick.

 

[Markhor]

Fair play then.

However in international cricket Kamran would be a goner.

 

[Goharn]

Damn, Ghulam Mudassar is prolly the slowest fast bowler we have. Don't think I have seen him go past 130.

 

[imshally81]

Fawad is the international pick.

Asghar over Fawad... Anyday...

 

[imshally81]

 

[Slim]

Any comments about yet?

 

[Goharn]

Asghar over Fawad... Anyday...

Can't. Need to have at least 4 internationals.

 

[Slim]

I had a question about the teams, so is it possible for QG to have a cheaper squad as compared to lets say LQ on the basis of the auction/transfer window or each team has to spend the same amount of $?

He touched 132 around but mostly bowling cutters

 

[Greenstorm]

44 year old is in. What have we done to deserve this torture ?

 

[ARK Rafay]

Can't. Need to have at least 4 internationals.

This shouldn't the a rule.

 

[ARK Rafay]

44 year old is in. What have we done to deserve this torture ?

SIX!!!

 

[Chokli]

26 off 26 is poor by max

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

26 off 26 is poor by max

He doesn't like taking singles. Gets stuck.

 

[ExpressPacer]

He touched 132 around but mostly bowling cutters

I remember when PP hype machine said he could bowl 150 KPH.

One franchise might spend a little lesser but no team can outspend another massively as there is a limit on the total spend.

 

[imshally81]

Review lost..

 

[imshally81]

Max Gone

 

[JibranAnsari]

What a horrible innings.

 

[Slim]

Haqsood out next ball.

 

[Titan24]

I remember when PP hype machine said he could bowl 150 KPH.

Lol. Yes.

I think he can potentially bowl around 140kph but his main weapon since his earlier days was swing.

 

[asadee]

Maqsood shud be kept away from the national team for good

 

[ARK Rafay]

SR of 89

 

[Titan24]

Good little spell from Mudassar. Seems to be working hard on his game, has developed nice back of the hand slower ball.
