Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi | PSL 2 | Final | Lahore | Mar 5, 2017 | Match Thread

[world cup captain]

well tbf their first choice bowling was local anyway apart from mills

They had the choice to pick better domestic bowlers but they went with Anwar. Now they are paying the price.

 

[Markhor]

Shame Marlon Samuels isn't playing for his country today, given how WI are in trouble v England today.

Thank you WICB.

 

[Madplayer]

Emrit bowling a terrific spell.

 

[Hasan123]

Very ordinary atmosphere and ground quality, the Zimbabwean series in 2015 was far better. It's been a letdown so far.

The most important thing is that we have the game here. We all know the atmosphere won't be this bad in an international match or even if Lahore were the home team.

 

[WC-Passion]

That's true but this Emrit guy looks pretty good, 100 T20 wickets now.

 

[Mamoon]

This poor man's Andre Russell doesn't look half bad.

 

[MMHS]

There is not much batting cover for PZ - unless KAkmal plays another blinder, QG actually can chase here. Anything under 200 in possible even for this line up at Lahore under light.

Thank you WICB.

Well he is the GOAT in t20 knockout matches. Lets see what he can do today.

 

[Adil_94]

why wasnt this Emrit guy picked in the original Quetta squad looks decent. Has he done well in CPL or other T20 leagues.

 

[Markhor]

I think emrit is a very good bowler. Why isnt he in the windies team?

He's 35 years old so not sure how many years they can get out of him.

 

[Slog]

Very ordinary atmosphere and ground quality, the Zimbabwean series in 2015 was far better. It's been a letdown so far.

its the production

ratio of crowd noise to commentator voice is off

 

[Mamoon]

Shame on the crowd. So disappointing. I'm watching the match with a few Indians and it's embarrassing.

Because Sarfraz prefers his friends.

Spoke to my friend who is at the stadium and he's telling me that the noise is deafening in the stadium . . It's the broadcasters commentators to crowd ratio

 

[Madplayer]

He's 35 years old so not sure how many years they can get out of him.

I thought he was in his 20s lol windies genes.

 

[WC-Passion]

Shame on the crowd. So disappointing. I'm watching the match with a few Indians and it's embarrassing.

I'll say it again, it's not the crowd, it's the poor production company who can't balance the sound very well at all. If you're at the ground you would be able to hear it better.

 

[Madplayer]

Tell them its a gentleman's game and gentlemen are watching.

 

[Markhor]

Nice touch by Waqar to thank Deano for coming to Pakistan.

 

[MABA]

Quality of stadium is big difference, lights look dull and far less than Dubai. They need to have more lights in the stadium, looks more like 1990s level of lights. This is the major disappointing part for me.

Yea that has nothing to do with production though, the only think I would complain about is as others have said is to cover crowd noise more

 

[Barragan]

The ball is keeping low

Not good

 

[Rafay Shafiq]

How is the pitch - flat and hard or a slow turner?

Low bounce , slow

 

[Madplayer]

Pitch looks to have lost bounce in first 6 overs.

 

[dauntless]

Zulfiqar babar bowling decently

 

[WC-Passion]

You guys have to realise that we've gone from a top production company who's worked with EPL clubs such as Spurs to some random Dubai production company. So the quality of sound and balance in audio is much worse, with more errors in graphics.

 

[yasir]

It's kind of , Pakistan's two terrible keepers, both missed arm ball from Zulfi...

 

[msb314]

Kammy looking good.

 

[IAJ]

Shame on the crowd. So disappointing. I'm watching the match with a few Indians and it's embarrassing.

I think crowd is enjoying the match, you should also do that.

 

[msb314]

Low bounce , slow

gotcha thanks!

 

[Madplayer]

Hasaan bowling very well

 

[moghul]

Shame on the crowd. So disappointing. I'm watching the match with a few Indians and it's embarrassing.

Plz tell me what exactly you want crowd to d ? Dancing on the wicket. Thre is house full and the message from inside the stadium I'm getting there is great atmosphere.Stadium was full hours before the game. Match is going on and you're keep sending negative messages.

 

[Mamoon]

The barren patches in the ground is also down to the production quality.

 

[dauntless]

Very good over by hassan

 

[msb314]

Shame on the crowd. So disappointing. I'm watching the match with a few Indians and it's embarrassing.

Aren't you in Peshawar?

How are you with indians there?

 

[Slog]

The barren patches in the ground is also down to the production quality.

stop being salty abt Najam Sethi and his Noora crew being embarassed so publicly in front of the world

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Looks like 150 score.

 

[WC-Passion]

The barren patches in the ground is also down to the production quality.

Why don't you stop being so negative about everything and enjoy the match. Normally you're a good poster but now you're just posting rubbish.

 

[IAJ]

Marlon's slow start is a blessing for Gladiators.

 

[Mamoon]

Talking to a few people who are at the ground, they were there for the Zimbabwe series as well. According to them, it is nothing like the atmosphere for that series. Disappointing.

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Hassan Khan, with his limited talent, has bowled decently in this tournament.

 

[Theo_14]

I'll say it again, it's not the crowd, it's the poor production company who can't balance the sound very well at all. If you're at the ground you would be able to hear it better.

My cousin facetimed me, and the crowd there was LOUD. It's definitely the production lowering the background volume.

 

[Mamoon]

Aren't you in Peshawar?

How are you with indians there?

I'm in U.S. these days for my specialization.

 

[WC-Passion]

Marlon's slow start is a blessing for Gladiators.

He's struggled all tournament so I don't even see the point in playing him. Though he could turn up now, you never know.

 

[Pakpak]

Deny Akmal space ad he's crap

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Talking to a few people who are at the ground, they were there for the Zimbabwe series as well. According to them, it is nothing like the atmosphere for that series. Disappointing.

Chill with the negativity dude.

 

[Madplayer]

Kamran showing his true colours. Nerves of sookhi ghaas.

 

[Markhor]

Marlon usually starts slowly. But PZ momentum has stalled.

 

[IAJ]

Good comeback here

 

[msb314]

stop being salty abt Najam Sethi and his Noora crew being embarassed so publicly in front of the world

Atleast we are getting to see this event in Lahore - would not have happened otherwise without Sethi.

 

[Mamoon]

stop being salty abt Najam Sethi and his Noora crew being embarassed so publicly in front of the world

The people are embarrassing themselves, just showing their lack of education.

 

[WC-Passion]

My cousin facetimed me, and the crowd there was LOUD. It's definitely the production lowering the background volume.

Someone needs to post a video from the crowd or something so people like [MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] shut up about it.

 

[Rayyman]

Credit should go to "The Green General"

He is choking Zalmi here.

 

[Barragan]

Disappointed with the pitch

Should have been a pancake

 

[Adil_94]

[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] How are you watching it with Indians in Peshawar

 

[Stallion__]

Well the crowd looks bland whenever they have panned the camera on stands

 

[Slog]

Talking to a few people who are at the ground, they were there for the Zimbabwe series as well. According to them, it is nothing like the atmosphere for that series. Disappointing.

lolwut how is that possible

a) they are at the ground but texting with you?
b) signals are blocked anyways so how is this conversation even happening

 

[fast1975]

Why don't you stop being so negative about everything and enjoy the match. Normally you're a good poster but now you're just posting rubbish.

acha jee?

aur aap mamay lagay howay hain pakistan kay? theka liya howa hai aap nay pakistan ka?

matlab, awaz aa nahiee rahiee, lights are dull, ground is barren magar lets not point anything.

sarkar, everyone has right to point out their real emotions.

please dont be a taliba. pleaseeee. hamay jeenay do

 

[WC-Passion]

Anwar Ali's face )

 

[Zeshan547]

Don't know how this dude samuels played two ATG t20 knocks in 2 wt20 finals. His tuk will make even misbah proud.

 

[Pakpak]

Did I hear Go Nawaz Go

 

[yasir]

They had so much time to fix the ground, it's looks horrible. Have they given up that grounds cannot be fixed??

It's not rocket science, everybody else has done that

 

[dauntless]

Shukar ae rabba! Thanks anwar ali ! Four

 

[MMHS]

Everything is perfect considering the situation .......... only if they could bring the wicket from UAE, even the worst one at Dubai was like Oval compared to this one

 

[Markhor]

Anwar Ali bowling short and wide to a guy who likes to play the cut shot. Well in mate, well in.

 

[IAJ]

Anwar, please learn from Emrit.

 

[Azzurri]

The best Allrounder is back to bowl rubbish

 

[Mamoon]

It really has been a pathetic match so far. Everything is well below the quality we were used to in the UAE.

 

[Stallion__]

Hassan has a very good arm ball

 

[moghul]

Talking to a few people who are at the ground, they were there for the Zimbabwe series as well. According to them, it is nothing like the atmosphere for that series. Disappointing.

Watching with Indians on you side now I got it, where you coming from. It's a fantastic at atmosphere at GS.

 

[IMMY69]

I think I'm hearing things.

There is this sound of Kung fu fighting, swords swooshing between overs

 

[msb314]

lolwut how is that possible

a) they are at the ground but texting with you?
b) signals are blocked anyways so how is this conversation even happening

facetime.

 

[Syed1]

Boring match and pathetic production quality

 

[dauntless]

Samuels is putting pressure on kami bhai

 

[WC-Passion]

acha jee?

aur aap mamay lagay howay hain pakistan kay? theka liya howa hai aap nay pakistan ka?

matlab, awaz aa nahiee rahiee, lights are dull, ground is barren magar lets not point anything. everyone has right to point out their real emotions. please dont be a taliban bro. pls. hamay jeenay do

It's quite irritating to see him post the same negative post about the crowd 5 times in a row. Sorry if I offended you.

 

[Slog]

The people are embarrassing themselves, just showing their lack of education.

haha at lack of education.

As i said. stop being salty

 

[Mamoon]

lolwut how is that possible

a) they are at the ground but texting with you?

A lot of people in the ground are Tweeting actually.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Yeah exactly )

 

[Mamoon]

Yes. The outfield is brilliant too. Lush green.

Man do you really have to make stories up to prove a point .
Some of us are actually from lahore.

Samuels Ji aapka waqt khatam hua jaata hai aap jaa sakte hain.
