Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2019 discussion

This time your prediction went wrong and Lahore Qalandars won the match. Thanks to aggressive batting by AB de Villiers, who really helped a lot in that winning and of course it would not have been possible without the last ball six by the Lahori Qalandars  

yh but as I said always I did not have much idea about the team.

I am watching Lahore and Quetta Gladiators match now. Quetta is my team so far LOL. It will be interesting to see what de Villiers do today. He is betting now. Scored so far 29 out of 22 balls.

Well again you choose the wrong team     
De Villiers is still batting and the overall score looks good for Lahore. If they manage to score about 175 +, i can easily bet on Lahore Qalandars. However Quetta is one of the strongest team of the competition.

Not sure but the reason of choosing Quetta is because of their strength. De Villiers is still betting. Wiese out. Lahore Qalandars is now have 128 runs after losing 5 wickets. 18 over is going to start now.

Well, Quetta won this nail bitter match only on the last ball. This was a great game of cricket and went right down to the last ball of the match.
PSL matches are becoming more tense as the tournament is progressing.

It's becoming more clear to me that Quetta will win the tournament. They have the strength and confidence to win it. Lahore played well today like yesterday but it was not their day. Well done Quetta.

The real issue with Quetta Gladiators is the loss of momentum at the time when the tournament is about to finish. They've been in the finals for a couple of times, but they face real difficulty in semi-finals and finals. Quetta Gladiators might win all of these (ten) matches, but if they're unable to win the finals, these wins will actually be totally useless. I personally would like to see Sarfaraz winning this league as it'll prove that he is the best option available (for captaincy) for the ICC World Cup 2019.

I did not have their history in mind. I was judging them seeing their performance in this tournament and I see a very strong team comparing to others. So my bet still stay for Quetta. I hope they win the tournament.

Today they have match with Karachi Kings. They should win it easily. I am wondering about Multan Sultans vs Peshawari Zalmi Match. I can not pick any from them.

Peshawari Zalmi easily won the match as they are much stronger team. Multan Sultans  may not make it to the last 4. There team is good but they have lot a lot of matches.
For the 2nd match, karachi needs to win it in order to stay in the tournament and it will be tough to beat the unbeaten Quetta team today.

Karachi is probably going to lose this one too; Umar Akmal and Russouw are putting some good scores right now. However, what makes you so sure that Karachi will be out of the tournament if they lose this one? It's still just the 5th match of the 10 matches (for Karachi)!

Good to see that Peshawari won the match. Multan Sultans were doing well in one stage. They scored 92 or 93 runs from only 10 overs but then Shoaib Malik  and DT Christian started to waste balls for the next 5/6 overs. I have no idea what was their game plan. This slowed down the run rate or they could easily score 190+ runs.

Chasing 145 runs was an easy target for Zalmi but Multan bowlers restricted them until the 2nd last balls to win.

I am watching Quetta vs Karachi Kings. If I am not wrong then I am expecting an easy win for Quetta.

By the way, if you are into IPL then I would like a feedback for this: IPL 2019 Perdition Pool [proposal]

Yes, there are still 5 matches to go for karachi after this one, but then they have to win maybe 4 of them atleast and it will not be an easy task considering their current performances.

[Raja_MBZ]

Karachi won the match against Quetta, thanks to the massive 100+ run inning of Colin Ingram!

I was quite accurate with my words  but never expected this type of comeback from karachi !!!
Karachi win was no less than a miracle. Colin Ingram first century for this PSL turned out to be a match winner.  Well with this win the tournament is wide open for any four teams to quality for top 4.

Today was a break day; the next match will be played between Islamabad United and Multan Sultans in Dubai tomorrow.

Actually, if Karachi loses another match (or even two matches), it's not like they'll be out of the tournament.

I was expecting Multan Sultan to win and they did. Although Multan Sultan and Islamabad United played one more matches than others but having 2 points for Multan Sultan was great.

Islamabad United has another match today with Karachi Kings. My calculation is that Islamabad United should win the match and in between Quetta Gladiators and Lahore Qalandars my bet is for Quetta Gladiators.

Well, Qalandars won against Gladiators and United won against the Kings. The first match went completely one-sided, with Qalandars leading all the way from the very start; however, the second one brought an unexpected result at the end. Asif literally took away the match from Kings within just a few overs!

I was right about Islamabad United but not sure what is going on with Quetta Gladiators? They have lost their 2nd match if I am not wrong and it's a consecutive lose.

Anyway, Qalandars are betting now against Karachi Kings. I am expecting them Qalandars to win this too.

Quetta Gladiators are losing there momentum here which is not good for them. They should focus more in the dept matches of the tournament.
For the current match, the Lahore Qalandars are not doing well and are at 97-4 in 15.3  overs. If Karachi bats well, then Qalandars will have to face another loss.

So they were able to score 133 runs altogether. Not a good score to defend however it will be interesting to see how Karachi Kings plan? Sometimes low scoring matches turns out to be the best entertaining match.

My good wishes for Lahore Qalandars.

Karachi Kings is probably going to win this one. They require just 52 runs off 48 balls right now and have 7 wickets remaining.

This is one of the very few low-scoring matches of this tournament - most of the matches of PSL have managed to cross 150+ runs in the first inning. T20s are meant to be high-scoring, IMO.
