Why is this match so boring

 

[Adil_94]

these two killing the game get Sammy in.

 

[shaz619]

pakistan ZINDABAD! PAKISTAN ZINDABAD!

THE PSL FINAL IS IN LAHORE!!!!!!!!! AS GOD AS MY WITNESS! AM NOT BELIEVING THIS NIGHT! INCREDIBLE! credit to all who made this happen, what an event and mubarak to all the pakistani people

 

[Rizwan25]

Two of the worst players on the crease. With 4 overs left, these two are not even trying to go after the bowlers. Pathetic

 

[saeed5646]

rift is 10 time better than ifti .we have many legends in domestic

 

[Rizwan25]

Poora maza kharab ker dia, just get out mannnn

 

[Mamoon]

What's even more disappointing is that all of these concerns were properly addressed for the Zimbabwe tour. Pitches were great, outfield was better, lighting was better and so was the overall production quality and atmosphere.

 

[MABA]

Calling it right now, Quetta will win this match easy. Peshawar has a very very low score so far

 

[itsme]

If you can't hit anwar zulfi you aren't domestic level let alone international

 

[IMMY69]

No, that is what I was told, but it was clear that the atmosphere in the first 10 overs was flat.

So when were you being sarcastic?

 

[Syed1]

Ifti with a blazing innings of 13(19)

 

[WC-Passion]

That pull shot from Itfikhar, amazing stuff.

 

[Mamoon]

Why is this match so boring

It's not, you are just negative. Everything is so fantastic.

 

[Syed1]

Iftikhaar has one shot... that mow across the line to cow corner

 

[Barragan]

Come on Sammy

Hit some big ones and bring some life to this final

 

[Speedster777]

Hafeez the hack out

 

[WC-Passion]

Hafeez being idiotic, needed to take a leaf out of Ifti's book and play slowly and steadily.

 

[Syed1]

It's not, you are just negative. Everything is so fantastic.

Finally you see the "light"

 

[Azzurri]

Moha back rock his usual self

 

[BleedGreen]

Zalmi need a couple of 20 run overs

Dont agree about the lighting part...floodlights turned off mid match leading to delay....

 

[msb314]

Hafeez gone - rubbish as always...

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

good captaincy by Sarfi to bring back Rayad

 

[Shafi]

Should be end of Hafeez International T20 career!!!!!

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

2 hacks batting
one gone

 

[Syed1]

The wrong guy got out

 

[BleedGreen]

Thank god iftikhar out.

 

[itsme]

Shouldn't have take the wicket

 

[Adil_94]

Emrit on fire. This has been garbage batting after the first 3 overs

 

[Rizwan25]

Thank god, I hope this is it for professor.

 

[Barragan]

Yeeeeesssss

ifti is out!!!!!!!!

 

[Syed1]

Sammy Sammy chants

 

[Rayyman]

Worst match of the tournament is the Final. Who would've thought?

 

[Sam18696]

Sad that Afridi isn't here. Would've been more interesting.

 

[javiersuka]

Low scoring final

 

[WC-Passion]

Iftikhar gone!

Is the game exciting now [MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] [MENTION=138254]Syed1[/MENTION] [MENTION=134177]Sam18696[/MENTION]

 

[shaz619]

It's not, you are just negative. Everything is so fantastic.

Exactly, am enjoying the game so much! these party poopers will not kill the buzz for me!

[Syed1]

Chaloo jee Emrit ne tou apne paisay pooray kardiyay lmao

 

[dauntless]

Shukar Allah for this!

 

[Pete Rose]

The summary of batting talent in Pakistan whether experienced or superstar: trying to hack the ball to mid wicket . You would think having played cricket for a decade at least; they would at least try to hit ball over cover or behind point. A very very disappointing psl in terms of Pakistani batting.

 

[msb314]

Ifti gone!

 

[itsme]

Emrit win it for peshawar

 

[Sarfarazian92]

What's even more disappointing is that all of these concerns were properly addressed for the Zimbabwe tour. Pitches were great, outfield was better, lighting was better and so was the overall production quality and atmosphere.

I think Najam Sethi and co. weren't 100% sure the final will go through so they started preparations late. But that's not an excuse and they should've made better arrangements.

Not sure lighting was better tbh, but the pitches and outfield definitely were.

 

[WC-Passion]

Emrit bowling like its a green mamba in England.

 

[BleedGreen]

3 overs. Need 50 at least off these!

 

[itsme]

Peshawar mess up when they send samuels instead of hafeez who would have loved to bat against spin

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

cant believe he got selected for pakistan test side .
all hail king misbah

 

[Sam18696]

I can't exactly pinpoint why this match is boring, it just is.

 

[Rayyman]

I can't exactly pinpoint why this match is boring, it just is.

Same. Maybe there was too much hype in 1st place.

 

[JibranAnsari]

its a day 4 test pitch

 

[javiersuka]

2 runs from the over

 

[WC-Passion]

I can't exactly pinpoint why this match is boring, it just is.

 

[Azzurri]

Best bowling figures for Emrit.

 

[Syed1]

Saifi what a captain yaar.. slip in the 18th over.


Can't expect this from Azhar/Misbah

 

[Slog]

What's even more disappointing is that all of these concerns were properly addressed for the Zimbabwe tour. Pitches were great, outfield was better, lighting was better and so was the overall production quality and atmosphere.

I guess Najam Sethi and crew should have spent more time focusing on these aspects rather than pointlessly retweeting every tweet they liked

 

[Syed1]

I guess Najam Sethi and crew should have spent more time focusing on these aspects rather than pointlessly retweeting every tweet they liked

And also political point scoring

 

[WC-Passion]

Saifi what a captain yaar.. slip in the 18th over.


Can't expect this from Azhar/Misbah

It's because the curators decided to make a day 4 test cricket pitch so he can get away with that.

 

[MABA]

Peshawar will be lucky if they reach 130 here

 

[Pete Rose]

Saifi what a captain yaar.. slip in the 18th over.


Can't expect this from Azhar/Misbah

Please not thIs nugget to gauge captaincy

 

[itsme]

Really dumb cricket,hafeez and ifti wasted the trundlers overs and now theirs hacks will have to play spin

more than that its disappointing to see some of ppers hype these hacks.

 

[WC-Passion]

If Peshawar didn't have such a long tail they would be competing here.

 

[Markhor]

Saifi what a captain yaar.. slip in the 18th over.


Can't expect this from Azhar/Misbah

Well he can afford to be aggressive given the conditions.

But this performance is not bad from a team "solely dependent on foreign players" - even with these C grade foreign players he's still getting the best out of them.

 

[Syed1]

14(21) by Ifti


What a pressure knock in a big game

 

[itsme]

Good captaincy but still really dumb cricket by peshawar

 

[coy0607]

I can't exactly pinpoint why this match is boring, it just is.

Afridi not being there is a factor

but also because Quetta has assembled some of the most hated PP players in Hafeez, Akmal and 25 year old boy Ifthikar Ahmed... talk about assembling TTFs

 

[javiersuka]

What a boring first innings so far,

 

[WC-Passion]

Lucky swing to boundary there.

 

[Barragan]

Lucky 4

But at least we see a boundary

 

[Syed1]

I thought the foreign players were carrying the friends XI

 

[Justcrazy]

112 / 6

18 overs

 

[WC-Passion]

14(21) by Ifti


What a pressure knock in a big game

Those 14 runs will be the difference between a win or a loss.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

I can't exactly pinpoint why this match is boring, it just is.

Dead pitch, dead atmosphere and dead batting from Zalmi.

 

[dauntless]

Apart from first two overs this match has been boring till now

 

[Haroon786]

 

[Shafi]

cant believe he got selected for pakistan test side .
all hail king misbah

That's how Misbah is!!!! Only think for himself and choose rubbish oldies/ttfs so he looks good

 

[WC-Passion]

A proper FOUR and the crowd has woken up!

 

[Barragan]

Another 4

Feels water in a desert

 

[Syed1]

Finally some boundaries

 

[SameerK]

Is this the same Peshawar that made 199 against a better Quetta side?
