Bitcointalk PSL T20 Pool and discussion.

[Vishnu.Reang]

Peshawar Zalmi looks strong on paper with Darren Sammy as a captain, makes it favorite for me. Check the teams to make the choice.

Darren Sammy is one of the T20 stars and there is no doubt regarding it. But his recent form hasn't been that good. Multan does have some very good players, such as Moeen Ali, Fabian Allen and Imran Tahir. On top of that, they have experienced guys such as Shahid Afridi and Sohail Tanvir. They are not over-dependent on one or two players.

[deadley]

In Round 1, you picked 6 / 7 outcomes correctly, which was better than the 2,251-strong community's average of 3.13 / 7. You are Spartacus.

This is what I got,

I also think Zalmi has better chance than Multan Sultan.

You have done pretty good job and it will be very hard to catch you for us. I am still 3 points away from you. 6 correct outcomes out of 7 is significant of course.

3 points is not too much for PSL, you can easily catch me, I was good in 1st round doesn't means I will be good in next rounds too.

Yes 3 points cannot do any thing as I am already in soccer pool where @LFC was leading by very good margin and now he is at no 8 forutne can changes very quickly for any one just keep going patience and consisteancy is main thing for success.
@Umer @Royse777 congrats for promotion in next rank

I will stick to Peshawar Zalmi since I already changed my mind once. Truth is that we really do not know who will win until the match takes a significant move to decide a winner. Feeling free for today but for tomorrow I have Quetta Gladiators in mind.

I will need to confess guys that I am not watching the matches but making my picks based on the results and some study I do online LOL

@Umer @Royse777 congrats for promotion in next rank 

Thank you. I hope you too find yours very soon.

Multan Sultans vs Peshawar Zalmi, Match Prediction
According to the current situation of the game, it can be said that Multan Sultans is more likely to win. Because, they have powerful skilled batsman like Rilee Rossouw and James Vince to bat in the 2nd innings. I hope joy is waiting for Multan Sultans. 

Its still anyone game because Multan also did not start well and are 2 down with only 10 on the board. They are chasing a low target of 124 and only one partnership of 50 might make things favorable for Multan. Peshawar Zalmi needs wickets because they did not bat well on this wicket.

Multan Sultans vs Peshawar Zalmi, Match Prediction

It's a big day for the Multan.
Just for everyone information, this match is happening in Multan after a very very long time. The last match which happened here was in 2008 ODI between Pakistan and Bangladesh.  Multan public is enjoying the match in their ground after 12 years and therefore you can see the enthusiasm in the full house crowd there.


Edit:

I will stick to Peshawar Zalmi since I already changed my mind once.

Multan Wins

Multan Wins  

LOL some of you :-P

I lost potential points just because I doubted myself. I had conformable win for Multan Sultans and if I would not get influenced by listen to you guys then I would end up getting another two points.

Aaarrgggg!
 

[AB de Royse777]

Islamabad United vs Quetta Gladiators and I am going to believe my instincts LOL. I already had a bad start in this round where I could easily booked 2 points from yesterday's match if I would not hear the mob :-P

I have gone with Quetta Gladiators and I believe they will win. Good luck everyone.

I am watching the game live on DSPORT, and it seems that Quetta Gladiators are having the advantage now. Three of the top IU batsmen are back in the pavilion (Ronchi, Munro and Malan), and 14 overs remain in this innings. Both Naseem Shah and Mohammad Hasnain seems to be on fire. I don't think that QG are going to make a total above 140 runs.

I have not watched the first innings but watching the 2nd innings. In response to 188 runs Gladiators are doing well. Roy got out at 50 and it was a catch just in the boundary.

Sarfaraz is the key now for Gladiators.

Edit : Really! He is out. Clean bold lol. In less than 10 seconds after making this post lol.

[Vishnu.Reang]

Can go either way. 44 needed from 24 balls (4 overs), with just 5 wickets in hand for Quetta. On paper, Islamabad has the advantage, but Quetta has performed well in similar situations in the past. Mohammad Nawaz and Ben Cutting are batting now, and after these two the tail starts with Naseem Shah and Mohammad Hasnain. Quetta can't lose any wickets at this point.

Well it looks easy for Gladiators now 12 from 7 balls when I am posting this .

Edit: 11 from 6 balls. This left handed batsman for the gladiators is costing them. He is not getting the balls in his bat and now he will strike again .
Really! He missed the first ball lol

11 from 6. 10 needed for a super over.

It can't get anymore exciting than this. Quetta was on the backfoot, but then Ben Cutting and Mohammad Nawaz managed to build a very handy partnership. Islamabad would be very disappointed with the 19th over, in which Cutting holed out to Colin Ingram (the bowler Rumman Raees had over-stepped). Now Amad Butt is going to bowl the 20th over... and the first ball is a dot.

Edit: 4 runs from 3 balls.

Edit2: Quetta won with 2 balls to spare. Ben Cutting 42 n.o from 17 balls.

Obviously Cutting was the man for the Gladiators. That other batsman (left handy) nearly sinking the boat of the Gladiators. He was finding it hard to hit the balls and wasted a lot of ball. If he would face one more ball then it could be a different result.

Cutting made the win very easy for Gladiators.

Anyway, it was a great match to watch. I will be watching tomorrows match too.

These matches are really getting interesting ones. Luckily i won both the bets in the round 2 and yesterday bet was won with a margin Point too, 
Ben cutting changed the game in the last over with 2 sixes, otherwise Islamabad would have won the match. It was never easy to make 10 runs in 4 balls without the sixes.

[why]

Multan Sultans are placed at the top of the Pakistan Super League 2020 points table with two wins and one loss from 3 games.

They will take on Karachi Kings who are placed at the 4th spot with one win and one loss from two games as well.

I hope Multan sultans will win the match.

[UmerIdrees]

Multan sultans are on the roll. They winning all their matches on their home ground.




Whom you are going with for this next match. Lahore Qalandars are yet to win in this tournament.

They LQ really have no good team to be honest. Their bowling site is not that good at all. I think they will not win a few matches even.
It's raining there, if nothing unexpected happen, Peswar will win the match.

You are right Peshawar is much better team and they have good players those can turn things very quickly so they done in this match as well I really feeling sad for Lahore because they are one of most expensive sides like Bangalore in IPL but results also just like them very poor.

I didn't knew that. Which player in Lahore team is the most expensive one ? The performance of their team is very poor and I doubt if they can win any matches in the tournament. As per mine experience the franchises which pay big to the players or get big names in their team by paying more, often does not perform well in the IPL and now PSL.
