On the first match of PSL when Punjab CM Maryam Nawaz Sharif who is the daughter of former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, she was invited to ground as a guest with special treatment on this thing players have full right to show their opinion and on this thing Naseem Shah tweet on the X that "Why is She treated like a queen at Lords ?" and in the next five minutes the tweet deleted by his account. On this tweet, PCB took action and gave him a showcase letter due to talking openly about politics.

Naseem pulled up by PCB over Maryam Nawaz tweet

No dearth of drama in the Pakistan Super League. But this time it has more to do with freedom of speech and the Pashtun-Punjabi ethnic divide. He immediately deleted the tweet and apologized, but was hit by a massive fine by the PCB. The fine amounts to PKR 20,000,000 ($71,600). Such a huge penalty for a simple tweet is unheard of anywhere else. Pakistani cricket has been on the downslide ever since Mohsin Naqvi became the PCB head. When Rambo was leading it, they were making a lot of progress. BTW, I am not sure whether Naseem makes PKR 20 million from PSL. Does anyone knows about his salary?

India fourth IPL 2026 game was very close match in which Punjab Kings won by three wickets with five balls left against Gujarat Titans. Punjab used their home field well, with bowlers Vijaykumar Vyshak with 3/34 and Yuzvendra Chahal with 2/28 holding Gujarat team to low 162/6, even with good 39 runs from Shubman Gill. 
Punjab had tough time after middle game drop, but Australian new player Cooper Connolly became hero, hitting unbeaten 72 runs off 44 balls to get 165/7. Punjab was able to bounce back from losing key wickets such as Shreyas Iyer and Marcus Stoinis to win with excellent first game.

Congratulations NPC won 21 st game easily.

How to describe the performing of the teams in this one day international game in which no team works hard or thinks well for its wins and loses playing in vain. KP could not play well because it has not won even 1 of the games played with it in 21 games. Sujan Thapaliya scored 48 runs with a nice performing and was out with a deficit of only 2 runs. If he had running quickly, he would not have been out and would have completed his 50 runs. Suman Shrestha also tried his best with 43 runs but this game consisted of 50 overs so his performing was of no use to him. NPC player Rashid Khan scored 90 runs and did not play any wrong shot till the end and not out. Aarif Sheikh contributed 81 runs and completely destroyed the aim. 4 players of NPC have been out for zero while playing wrongly but the struggling of these two capable players put them in wins.

Is that a same match where someone did ball tampering and caught by umpires? Guess it was fakhar zaman, didn't follow the case but seems bowlers got away again? I mean why'd a batter do such a thing without any knowledge of bowlers. Also doing such thing in franchise cricket when stakes are not high.

Call it irony but warner was also playing in the same match.

Yup.. the same match. Latest news is that Fakhar Zaman has been banned for two matches, for his role in ball tampering. I am a bit surprised with this. Warner and Smith were banished for two years. And Fakhar just got 2 match ban? According to match referee Roshan Mahanama, Fakhar breached article 41.3 in the code of conduct for PSL. This is an ICC approved event. Why ICC laws are not being followed? Shaheen Afridi was apparently also involved in the tampering, and he received no punishment.

Just read somewhere that he's facing only 2 match ban. In comparison look at what kind of punishment Naseem shah received from the PCB, just for some political tweet. Guess they fined him big like 80% amount of his annual contract.

Also, in other news. ECB kinda gave a cold shoulder to euro cup.

Cooper Connolly was a match Winner in this match because he gave strong batting in this match and he made 72 runs in just 44 balls and he was a person who played with strike rate of 163 in this match according to the requirement of the team. He hit 5 sixes and 5 fours in this match and that was need of the team and their batting was collapse and that is the reason match was tough at the end for that team and Bartlett hit six at the end when it was required to his team and team won the match at the end. No player could make partnership with Cooper Connolly but he was present on the Wicket and he has confidence they will win this match.  Punjab kings won their first match which is best for them and they have fourth position on the table. Gujrat is present at 5th position due to run rate .

The 4 matches of the Indian Premier League have come to an end.In the last match Punjab Kings ensured this winning thanks to their excellent bowling.Vijay Kumar Vyshak tough bowling restricted the Gujrat Titans team to 162 runs and took 3 important wickets and put the Gujrat Titans in trouble.Both the actions of Punjab Kings were very strong due to which Punjab Kings won the match with 3 wickets and 5 balls remaining and established themselves on the points table.By the way the Gujrat Titans team also took 7 wickets against Punjab Kings but the falling wickets had no effect on Punjab Kings.Apart from Cooper Connolly no one tried to take more boundaries.If Cooper Connolly had not shown strength in ground Punjab Kings could have lost this match.

The hard work and effort of the teams in this league makes it very interesting to see the target. The way the bowling has been controlled in this match and the hard work and efforts are being made to give a strong target while playing well, this match is very interesting. Sunrises batsmen are scoring runs with a lot of effort, their batsmen are trying hard with each other, but they should strengthen their bowling to make their target even stronger so that they do not get a chance to be defeated in any way. I considered Knight Rider as a favorite but this time they are not playing well and hard they should also make it good and strong, but we are seeing their defeat in this match. Because the way Sunrises batsmen still have 3 overs and have scored 200 runs so far this will lead to the defeat of Knight Rider.

KKR team again lost game and this was their 2 nd game of IPL series and SRH played very poor in 1 st game but in 2 nd game, SRH team beated their opponent in 6 th game. KKR team won toss and they elected field first and gave batting lineup to SRH team. SRH team set 226 runs target in 20 overs by losing 8 wickets. Klaasen batsmen made great progress and made brilliant half century 52 runs in 35 balls and hitted four 4s and one 6s. Travis and Abhishek batsmen also opened lineup with strong effort and Travis scored 46 runs and Abhishek batsmen made 48 runs in 21 balls. KKR team did not chase full target and lost this 6 th game by big margin 65 runs. Jayde bowler helped team to win game and he took down 3 wickets in 3 overs and gave 21 runs. Congratulations SRH on winning 1 st game.

I think that in the previous seasons, the legends who built the foundations of Karachi Kings including Sharjeel Khan, Babar Azam, Muhammad Amir and Imad Wasim, all these are top class Pakistan players and now everyone is in different team that is why it was the main point that Karachi Kings new players struggled but this time they are looking so good, with good batting middle order attack as well as great bowling attack with Hassan Ali, Mir Hamza, Abbas Afridi and in spin side world class spinner from Australia Adam Zampa, Khushdil Shah makes the team even more powerful.

I have seen that in the 2025 Pakistan Super League, the KK team had PAK players like Shan Maqsood, Irfan Khan, Amir Khushdil and Muhammad Nabi and in the current league, some PAK players like Shan Maqsood, Hassan Ali, Abbas Amir, Muhammad Nabi, and Khushdil. Due to the nice performing and nice trying of these players, they have become powerful. The players in the KK team are each nice in their own abilities, that is why they have wins 3 games. This year, KKi has breathed life into the Pakistan Super League and that is only because of tight work and struggling. If they do not think about it, they will not be able to bring that speed to their game and this benefit can be taken by the improved teams like LQ and MS with their try.

Congratulations SRH on winning 1 st game.

The Kolkata team faced a failure by 60 runs. This may be the reason why their batsmen are not at all active and serious, who are able to coach the target given by the opposing team, like Angkrish Raghuvanshi, who gave good support in this match and not in the same match but in every match he has a different score that he makes for his team, but the whole team cannot do this or work with one player and maybe that is why they faced failure in this match. Their opponent was the Hyderabad team, whose bowlers have also set a very good target in a relaxed mind, which is 226 runs. It is not possible to score so many runs in 20 overs, but it is possible and they showed it by doing it. The batsmen of the Hyderabad team are quite good and together they handle the match, like Abhishek Sharma, Heinrich Klaasen and Travis Head, these three played a very important role in this match, which made  A good target was achieved and a win was also achieved.

In my opinion if a team can score 226 runs the team in front can also score but the condition is that they also play the same way the team in front played.If you come under pressure from a big aim you will not be able to play well throughout the match. The same thing happened with the Kolkata Knight Riders team.The Knight Riders bowling started very poorly due to which Sunrisers Hyderabad hit back to back sixes and fours.There was not a single bowler in the Knight Riders team who could control the Sunrisers Hyderabad batsmen.Blessing Mazarbani took 4 wickets for Sunrisers Hyderabad but even then there was no benefit.His hard work went in vain.By the way many of Sunrise Hyderabad bowlers will be out soon  but due to the great strike rate of the other batsmen they did not suffer any loss.

They lost by a large margin and this was due to their poor bowling and batted. If they had played with hard work and dedication they could have overcome this margin and Victory. Among all their batsmen, Angkrish Raghuvanshi played with some effort and passion and scored 52 runs and only after that could he make 101 runs which could not be achieved with any target. Sunrises batsmen played with a lot of hard work and effort and worked hard with their batsmen to achieve this target.  In the IPL every team should play with strength, keeping in mind that the target of 200 is not very strong, because in every match you have to play with such strength, only then will victory be easy as in this match Sunrisers batsmen scored runs with hard work and bowled hard to stop the runs and Victory, and the Kolkata team could not prove itself well in this match.

In my opinion, Kolkata Knight Riders are in the worst position in the Indian Premier League so far this time. Although they gave a competitive performance in the first match, they lost that match, but in the second match, due to their poor bowling performance, their Sunrisers Hyderabad team could go above 220 in batting, but they could not take any extra benefit for themselves while batting. I
 am talking about the benefit here because the ground was batting friendly in this match, so even Sunrisers Hyderabad team was able to easily all them out and win this match. I think Kolkata Knight Riders' position in this time's Indian Premier League will not be very good.

Also, in other news. ECB kinda gave a cold shoulder to euro cup.

I knew that this would happen. ECB is the least supportive cricket board within the pig-3, when it comes to expansion of cricket. If India can find time in their calendar to participate in the Asia Cup (which happens to be the main revenue source for the ACC as well as most of the Asian associates), then this argument doesn't make any sense. They are afraid that they will lose to teams like Scotland and the Netherlands (which has happened many times before). That said, Europe has just 2 full members (including Ireland). So the ECB has a disproportionate decision making power.

Actually the main problem is that Kolkata's bowling line is not good, they do not have good quality pace bowlers in their team due to which they could not win despite scoring a huge score of 220 runs in the first match. Varun Chakaravarthy is not a bad bowler but he is not doing well, he has bowled badly in the last two matches. Matheesha Pathirana's injury, Mustafizur Rahman has been dropped from the team, this is where Kolkata's bowling line has become weak. Although Blessing Muzarabani has been added to the team instead of Pathirana but he is not doing well enough. I also think that Kolkata will not be able to do well this season.

And these guys with their pundits and sports journalists are first to give moral lectures about the cricket etc ECB and CA both act in same way.

ECB has more than enough resources to send second string team but they don't see any financial benefit and that's the only reason they are giving it cold shoulder. They won't bring this schedule BS if BCCI propose similar trilateral/quadrilateral series including them.
