Quetta Gladiators vs Peshawar Zalmi | PSL 2019 - Final | NSK | March 17, 2019 | Match Thread

[Chokli]

Poor bowling mostly.

so you're saying all the teams he's scored against have poor bowlers?

 

[Theo_14]

Time for Umar Amin to shine.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Bravo on now

 

[SensiblePakFan]

5 players in Quetta's squad are born in Karachi, basically a home game for them.

 

[Hawkeye]

300 Pak scored in SA recently was mainly due to Imam's century and he was also the man of the series there.

Not survive in international cricket? He has already scored more centuries than all Pakistani openers in history except Anwer, Butt and Shehzad and equal to Amir Sohial and that too in 21 matches.

And I thought playing in SA against SA was international cricket.

He can do OK in ODIs because he gets those 40-50 deliveries to get settled first.

That doesn't work in T20s.

Note that there's a huge difference b/w ODis and T20s.

but it is working, he's one of the highest scorers for his team

 

[Hawkeye]

so you're saying all the teams he's scored against have poor bowlers?

For the most part. He takes his time to get settled - eats up 30-50 deliveries before he's able to play conventional scoring shots.

If you force him to score from the get go, he only charges down the pitch.

 

[Shafi]

Why bother playing Nabi when they intend to send him no. 10 or 11? Seriously lack of cricketing knowledge to throw a young batsman in the last 5-10 balls.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Who is Nabi Gul in Peshawar team at 6?

 

[Chokli]

amin couldn't even put away a full toss

 

[Hawkeye]

but it is working, he's one of the highest scorers for his team

And will also make his team lose in the final because of his limitations, well exploited by a thinking bowler today.

A limited player in this format and a liability.

so how did he score in the last game where he had to score from the get go?

 

[Hawkeye]

he was the man of the series in the south african series, when was the last time you had a pakistani man of the series in south africa?

"won't survive in international cricket"

so why was he man of the series?

Never said he should be dropped from ODIs or is a failure there.

Ashan Ali and Sarfraz are the only 2 I see

 

[Hawkeye]

Where else would I be

How loud were the par-chi calls?

 

[Chokli]

he is one of the reasons why they are in the final despite his limitations, it's time for the others to step up.

yet has already achieved more in 2 years than your favourite batsman in 9 years.

 

[srh]

move on from Imam; you guys are spending too much time on a nepotistic selection who has already failed

learn about cricket first and gain some knowledge about batting

 

[Chokli]

he took his team to the finals, not a failure by any means.

 

[Asif321]

Bravo to Fawad

 

[srh]

lets see if Maqsood get his form back

 

[mak36]

Agreed. KK just has the most support here because of the Karachi in the name which is natural but QG is more of a Karachi team tbh.

Yes exactly. Given KK are out my guess is a lot of the fans are getting behind QG for today's final.

 

[Mueez]

Should’ve sent Nabi Gul...

 

[srh]

why change Husnain after only 1 over?

 

[Asif321]

Dropped by Shezzy

Note that there's a huge difference b/w ODis and T20s.

He is not the most dynamic at the moment but he is really solid and consistent at the top. He is still just 23, obviously will learn with experience.

Even in T20s he is scoring at a SR of 137 and was highest run scorer before today in PSL.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Umar Amin such a useless player

 

[srh]

he took his team to the finals, not a failure by any means.

whatever will let you sleep good at night

 

[Titan24]

why change Husnain after only 1 over?

Saving him for middle and death overs

 

[Asif321]

Umar Amin looks lost

 

[srh]

Ahmed Shehzad should be very careful about his head

 

[Chokli]

whatever will let you sleep good at night

learn to refute points then instead of giving up.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Amin cost us this final.

 

[Theo_14]

Fawad Ahmed appreciation post.

Restructured jaw, teeth taken out. To come back before his full recovery, and bowl is remarkable.

Psychology/mentally I would be too scared to bowl so soon knowing the ball may hit me again.

Massive credit to Fawad.

 

[Asif321]

Fawad really a very strong character claps claps

 

[Chokli]

Amin cost us this final.

he is a horrible batsman that shouldn't be near any cricket team.

 

[Boi]

Mental midget choking the innings

 

[Afhan Ali]

Hack maqsood looks miles better than useless amin

 

[SensiblePakFan]

Dropped by Shezzy

Fawad doesnt deserve that, shamful

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

what are these 2 doing in t 20 match

 

[MRSN]

joke of a batting from Amin.

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

Hack maqsood looks miles better than useless amin

both look useless

 

[Chokli]

ruining the flow of runs umar amin

 

[srh]

Saving him for middle and death overs

want to see him continue and gain rhythm and break the 150 speed again today

 

[babajee]

what are these 2 doing in t 20 match

Ask [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION]

 

[Asif321]

Masood and Amin look worst player of spin

 

[Boi]

Amin stinking out NSK with this knock.

 

[Sirris]

Why is this tailender Umar Amin doing out there?

PZ once again have to rely on the Caribbeans to get them to a respectable total.

 

[Chokli]

) [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION]

your two favourites are lighting up karachi

 

[srh]

as I said Peshawar's batting is too dependent on Kami

 

[Titan24]

Amin and Maqsood at the moment showing all the problems last generation of our batsmen had. Hopefully we can develop a better crop of batsmen soon.

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

this is unfair to pakistani crowd torturous batting

 

[Chokli]

this is what happens when kamran and imam get out quickly.

 

[Ahmed216]

Very poor batsmen these 2 . They look so out of sorts. One of them needs to get out asap for peshawars good

 

[Chokli]

Amin and Maqsood at the moment showing all the problems last generation of our batsmen had. Hopefully we can develop a better crop of batsmen soon.

and some people still believed those two were hard done by.

4 off 12 balls umar amin

 

[Mueez]

Pathetic batting by these TTF’s

 

[Syed1]

Imam making a habit of flopping when needed most

 

[Asif321]

How did Masood and Amin play for Pakistan they can’t even handle nawaz

 

[mak36]

Ask [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION]

)

 

[msb314]

Amin and Maqsood are as incompetent as ever...

 

[Chokli]

Imam making a habit of flopping when needed most

says more about the rest than it does about him

 

[Syed1]

PSL is exposing Amin and Maqsood.... very nice

 

[Asif321]

Mubarak Amin :4

 

[Chokli]

as I said Peshawar's batting is too dependent on Kami

if you watched any of the matches you'd know to give credit to imam but from your point of view it was kamran akmal batting from both ends

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

spoiling great atmosphere.
get these hacks out

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Fawad is doing well so far despite that boundary

10 off 2 overs is good.

 

[Chokli]

what a classy left handed single

 

[shariqnoor]

Slow by Maqsood and Amin but they cannot afford to get out before the 13h over. Pollard and Sammy will make up the runs later on. Just bat sensibly for the next 5 overs and don't give Quetta a wicket.

 

[Chokli]

either hit out or get out

 

[Titan24]

PZ need atleast 12 runs per over from here for 12 overs to get to the total Sammy was targeting.

 

[Syed1]

Out karooo bhai inko... making the match boring

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

all depends on sammy and pollard now.
maqsood is playing kabbadi

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

Both are such poor batsmen.

 

[Chokli]

zalmi going to get to that respectable 140

 

[Asif321]

Amin looking dangerous but don’t know for whom

 

[Syed1]

Sarf is master at captaincy in such situations.

 

[Chokli]

[MENTION=134608]Hawkeye[/MENTION] disappears

 

[Syed1]

My concern is why aren't they charging down the pitch and playing ball before spin??? Reading it off the pitch these two

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

Maqsood has zero in between game. If you can't get singles and doubles, you're not international caliber.

 

[babajee]

Hopefully the Maqsood and Amin chapters are sealed forever.
