Favourites for the finals: Karachi Dolphins vs. Sialkot Stallions, Karachi vs. Lahore would be more exciting.

 

[Pak_mystery]

Afridi must open for the dolphins today.. I dont understand why does he have to keep himself down the order always why cant he atleast open the innings in domestic matches if not international matches....

Karachi Dolphins vs. Islamabad Leapords:


Shahid Afridi
Anwar Ali
Fawad Alam

These guys have got the commentary again.

 

[Saj]

so just over half an hour before the first match starts.

You've got to fancy Karachi for the first game. Akhtar versus Afridi could be interesting

They had six matches? I didn't know there were so many.


Anyway, Afridi probably won't open since Akhtar is the opening bowler..

 

[hashman]

Sorry guys what time zone is the time shown on here.

 

[siccric]

5PM Pakistan time, it starts. Which is now!

 

[PakPassionate]

Islamabad wont the toss and batting 1st

Anwer Ali going to bowl 1st over

 

[PakPassionate]

Anwer ali bowled good 1st over banana swing....

After 1st over Islamabad 2/0

 

[PakPassionate]

Sohail Khan will bowl the 2nd over

 

[thirdman]

On the PCB website (http://www.pcboard.com.pk/Archive/Scorecards/187/187919/187919_mini.html) it says:

"Islamabad Leopards captain Shoaib Akhtar wins the toss and decides to bat first"

Is this true? I thought Ashar Zaidi was captaining the Leopards.

 

[PakPassionate]

Gone wohoooooooooooooooooo
Inswing delivery by Sohail .... LBW
Raheel Majeed gone for ZERO

Islamabad 3/1

 

[hashman]

Good solid start from both bowlers. PakPassionate are you watching the match. If so, how are the two looking at the moment.

Lagta hai PCB walay puray pagal hongye hain

Both the bowlers bowling very well ....maybe they already knew that they are selected for Canada 2020

 

[hashman]

LOL. Maybe. It is going to be one of these two selected. Shoaib will prob get selected in 11.

 

[siccric]

Sohail Khan bowled well in the second over:

1 0 0 0 0 W

including three LBW appeals.


Anwar Ali's third over was also economical.

One ball went for four but was edged and went through the one slip

 

[siccric]

Aamir Sohail had no such comments about Ejaz Butt, but he said they should've consulted him for the Canada squad!

 

[siccric]

bazeed Khan b sohail Khan 0(02) BRILLIANT BALL!

 

[siccric]

New batsman: Afaq Karim !

 

[DM]

AMAZING SO FAR!!!

EXPRESS PACE!!!!

I really wish i could see this!

Someone commentate on Afridi please

 

[siccric]

Fawad Alam with a direct hit, but batsman was clearly in.

 

[siccric]

Afridi typically talking to Sohail Khan and Anwar Ali.

 

[Saj]

bazeed Khan b sohail Khan 0(02) BRILLIANT BALL!

Bazid Khan is one of the most overrated batsman in Pakistani cricket. Great stuff from the Karachi young guns - Sohail and Anwer

 

[hashman]

Was anyone able to find working link for GEO super

 

[siccric]

Leading wicket takers in the tournament:

Mohammad Naved 6
Mohammad amer 5
Fahad Khan 5
Shahid Afridi 5


Remember, not everyone has played the same amount of matches.

 

[siccric]

Aamir Sohail

Sohail Khan
Mohammad Aamer
Sohail Ahmed

will be the future of Pakistan bowling, and he says the future doesn't look bad.

 

[siccric]

Arbab Rahim c (wk) Sarfraz b Anwar Ali 2(04) !!!!

 

[siccric]

20/3 Islamabad in trouble as the captain walks out. 5 overs bowled

 

[ataullah]

Anwar Ali to Afaq Raheem
Gone! good length ball, just outside off and moves away, Afaq tries to play a big shot down the ground, thick outside edge goes to keeper and he takes a straight forward catch behind the stumps, Leopards 3 down!
Afaq Raheem c Sarfraz Ahmed b Anwar Ali (2 runs, 4 balls, 0x4, 0x6)

Anwar Ali bowled out swinger. He isnt one trick pony.

 

[taqi]

Arbab Rahim c (wk) Sarfraz b Anwar Ali 2(04) !!!!

hmmmm bowled by Qayem Ali Shah CM Sindh

 

[siccric]

hmmmm bowled by Qayem Ali Shah CM Sindh

HAHAHA sorry, I was flipping channels and I saw him somewhere XD

 

[siccric]

Umair Khan 17(19) c (wk) Sarfraz b Aftab

 

[taqi]

r they playing @ Gaddafi or @ Perth
24-4

 

[siccric]

Ball swinging around, Afridi being very proactive as usual.


29/4 after 7 overs

 

[hashman]

Dolphins look likely to win this tournament and qualify for the Champions League. There bowling line up will be too good for both Lahore and Sialkot

 

[Raz]

Leopards 34-4 after 8 overs

 

[siccric]

34/4 after 8.

 

[Raz]

Dolphins look likely to win this tournament and qualify for the Champions League. There bowling line up will be too good for both Lahore and Sialkot

I agree, the new ball pairing of Sohail Khan and Anwar Ali is probably the best of any side in the competition.

 

[siccric]

Ramiz pleased with the balanced pitches throughout the tournament.

 

[siccric]

37/4 after 9.

 

[taqi]

Ramiz pleased with the balanced pitches throughout the tournament.

pitches r better then asia cup

 

[siccric]

Fayaz Ahmed c Afridi b Malik Aftab [i think] 4(7)

38/5 !! Lofted drive didn't clear the infield and Afridi takes a relatively easy catch. Wicketkeeper naeem anjum out to the middle.

 

[hashman]

so another one gone. Will the Leopards get near 100

 

[siccric]

This is going to be a pretty dull final unless something miraculous happens

 

[taqi]

i wish if they can manage 120 it will be interesting to see Shoaib and Rao with new ball

 

[siccric]

so another one gone. Will the Leopards get near 100

Doubt it. Anwar Ali and Sohail Khan both have two overs left, so I'm guessing once the others get one more wicket, Afridi'll let them clean up.

 

[siccric]

i wish if they can manage 120 it will be interesting to see Shoaib and Rao with new ball

Yeah, the pitch will suit Rawr.

 

[PakPassionate]

Isb: 45/6 Ashar zaidi gone

 

[TalhaSyed]

45/5 After 11.2 Overs & Isl look in trouble

Cricinfo are postng score updates quite frequently.

 

[PakPassionate]

Shoiab Akhtar is new batsman....maybe he will hot few shots

 

[TalhaSyed]

but PakPassionate is ahead of them

 

[siccric]

Ashar Zaidi c Afridi b Malik Aftab

45/6 (11.3)

Shoaib being cheered as he comes out to bat.

 

[siccric]

Ashar played an uppish drive and was caught by Afridi , again just inside the infield.

 

[TalhaSyed]

http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/pakistandomestic/engine/current/match/369912.html

there is the cricinfo link with scorecard etc.

 

[taqi]

can they pass 67 lowest score in RBS T20 2008-09 ???

 

[siccric]

Classy fielding at point by Fawad Alam. Good cut shot. Four saved.

Cricinfo won't tell you that!

 

[siccric]

Good take by sarfraz, VERY wide down the legside.

 

[hashman]

Karachi Dolphins bowling Overs Mdns Runs Wkts Wides No-Balls
Malik Aftab 4 0 17 3 0 0

SOme pretty good bowling there

One wide now. Only trust PP!

 

[Saj]

Thanks to the guys bringing us the quickest updates on the net

 

[siccric]

Some people coming into the stadium now, I guess more to see Afridi and Akhtar in action, and then for the lahore match. This one probably won't be great unles Rawr and Shoaib do something good. These two playing well at the moment, taking singles regularly.

 

[taqi]

afridi vs shoaib may be they need a little

 

[siccric]

Spinners into the attack. Tahir Khan and Afridi.

 

[siccric]

Very poor shot from Shoaib Akhtar.

Shoaib c Anwar Ali b Tahir Khan

Tried to clear the boundary but failed, miserably.

 

[siccric]

57/7 after 14.2 overs.


Rauf Akbar in now.

 

[siccric]

BRILLIANT CAUGHT AND BOWLED!


One of the best I've seen


Naeem Anjum gone.

 

[siccric]

Time for Rao!

 

[siccric]

POOR RUNNING, AND RUNOUT!

Rao gone, Rauf didn't back his call.

68/9.


Lowest total in the tournament surpassed at least.

 

[siccric]

AFRIDI GETS A WICKET!

Emad Wasim 0(1)c Sarfraz b Afridi

Innings finish at 68.

 

[PakPassionate]

9 Wkts Gone

 

[PakPassionate]

Islamabad all out on 68

 

[siccric]

16 overs for that 68, and Karachi require 69 at just over 3.9 runs an over.


Decent crowd in for the run chase. Let's hope we see some good bowling at least.

 

[PakPassionate]

Jeetay ga bhi Jeetay ga
Karachi hi Jeetay ga​

 

[Raz]

Woah 68 all out!

Btw, just wanted to say good work with the commentary siccric and Pakpassionate. Keep it up.
