Pakistan Super League #PSL Discussion Thread

Karachi Kings started good and it looked like they'll easily win the match. In between the opening wicket and the run out was an unnecessary one. Vince was in good form and he's taking the team towards win. The middle order Haider Ali and Shoaib Malik didn't perform and ate the balls. If they had played good the match could've been a win for Karachi Kings.

Karachi Kings started good and it looked like they'll easily win the match. In between the opening wicket and the run out was an unnecessary one. Vince was in good form and he's taking the team towards win. The middle order Haider Ali and Shoaib Malik didn't perform and ate the balls. If they had played good the match could've been a win for Karachi Kings.

Haider Ali 12 runs off 17 balls
Shaoib Malik 13 runs off 19 balls.

When the run target was 197 runs in 20 overs, the innings that Haider Ali and Shoaib Malik gave yesterday was undoubtedly enough to lose the match. No ball + 6 runs came as a bonus total of seven runs due to Abbas Afridi's first ball noball call , just when the game needed 24 runs in the last over. Then 17 runs were needed in six balls, Abbas Afridi gave a few extra runs in the last over and 7 runs were needed in the last 4 balls. The turning point of the game changed only when Ben cutting out. But 7 runs were to be taken in the last two balls but Imad Wasim could not turn any ball into a six, finally Karachi Kings lost by three runs. However, Karachi Kings lost tomorrow's match only to a few top-order batsmen. Especially Haider Ali and Shoaib Malik scored only 25 runs in six overs which was not good for Karachi Kings in yesterday's match.

Haider Ali's biggest contribution to the match was in running out James Vince, who was singlehandedly leading the fight for Karachi Kings. By the time Vince got out, Karachi was solidly on target with a score of 105/2 after 9.5 overs. But then the combination of Haider Ali and Shoaib Malik sank them with slow batting. And it is not like the Multan Sultans had world class bowlers. All they had was a bunch of inexperienced pacers, including Ihsanullah, Abbas Afridi and spinners Khushdil Shah/Usama Mir. After watching the match I was unsure for which team this guy (Haider Ali) was playing.

Peshawar Zalmi and Islamabad United are equally strong teams to there is going to be z tough match between them. My vote is for Islamabad United.
Karachi Kings played good in all matches but unfortunately they lost most of them because of better opposition.

Haider Ali 12 runs off 17 balls
Shaoib Malik 13 runs off 19 balls.Karachi

Haider Ali is not that sort of player don't know what happened with him last night. Malik is 41 years old and it's time for him to join Karachi Kings as coach or mentor. He must give chance to some new talent.

Horrible stats for Karachi. They have played most games and lost most games also. Babar Azam has done right move by immigrating to zalmi in this PSL. There is complete overhaul required in Karachi Kings squad.

The 12th match of Pakistan Super League has started. Peshawar Zalmi vs Islamabad United these two teams have entered the field to play. Islamabad United won the toss and decided to bowl. Peshawar Zalmi are now batting for 26 runs in 2 overs.  So far Peshawar Zalmi has not lost any wicket. I think both teams will play very well in today's match and whichever team can do well in both bowling and batting will win today's match.

Peshawar Zalmi bat first and gave target of 156 runs  8 wickets gone   this is good runs from peshawar Zalmi.  Now all depends upon how they ball, to win this match they need to take quick wickets as Islamabad United have some good batsman in their batting lineup and they can chase this target easily.

Look like Zalmi will lose this match against Islamabad, because Islamabad batter were phenomenal Thier opener rehman-ullah-Gurbaz is on fire he smashed them like a kids playing with pro, he scored 62 with a strike rate of 200 which is incredible. The required runrate to chase the current target is 5.0 while Thier current run rate is 12.
Now Peshawer need wicket to get into game otherwise the game is out Thier hand because Islamabad need 55 runs in 70 balls while long number of power hitter are still on the way.
If Peshawer dismissed some wickets hope Thier

Islamabad will surely win the match. Rehman - ullah - Gurbaz really played well, it was his day today.
Good luck to both the teams

An easy won for Islamabad United obviously their opener Rahmanullah gurbaz played a responsible innings  62 runs , Rassie van der Dussen 42 runs and worth mentioning Asif Ali who scored 29 runs on 14 balls with 3 sixes and 1 four . This is what Asif Ali is known for his smashing batting . Good match played by Islamabad United except shadab Khan what has happened to his batting.

In the 12th match between Peshawar Zalmi and Islamabad United, Peshawar Zalmi managed to set a target of just 156 runs. But everyone knew that this score was not enough to win the match. Islamabad United controlled the result of the match on the power play. Islamabad United managed to score 80 runs after batting only 6 overs, as a result of which Islamabad United won the match after batting only 14.5 overs. Islamabad United retained their second position with a win in today's match.

[MusaPk]

In zalmi batting, only openers were able to score runs apart from openers only Shanaka was able to make it to double figures. Islamabad United Chased the target in just 89 balls. Wahab Riaz as usual, was super expensive, don't know why he is still selected in PSL. Islamabad United is now at number second position after this win. United are silently but moving forward.

What an outstanding Batting performance by Islamabad United , Today, the batsmen of Islamabad United team left the bowlers of Peshawar Zalmi completely out of sorts.
Their run rate per over was phenomenal, their performance today made it seem that if they had batted earlier today they would have gone over 200 runs. As a result of winning this match.  They are more seasoned to retain the second spot in the points table. Hope they can continue their performance.

Islamabad is at the 5th position on the points table. Even after the loss Peshawar Zalmi is placed at the third position, because it is the team's first loss in three matches. Mohammad Haris and Babar Azam gave good start, but the rest of the team weren't able to support. This is the reason why the score got limited to 156 runs. Nowadays every team performs well in T20 and atleast 180 runs is a must.

[Sithara007]

Islamabad United really benefitted from their power-packed top order yesterday. Peshawar Zalmi bowlers were unable to contain Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Rassie van der Dussen, although Colin Munro fell early during the chase. Zalmi do have experienced bowlers (Wahab Riaz, Usman Qadir and James Neesham), but were unable to stem the flow of runs. BTW, it is good to see Tom Curran bowling in the PSL. He has become one of the most sought after bowlers in franchise T20 and recently had an excellent stint with Desert Vipers in the International League T20. 

[og kush420]

It's gonna be tough match because Lahore looking good so far they scored 128 in 13th over while just three batter of them are dismissed, but if you look at his current run rate it's quite good 9.85. if Lahore scored around 170+ then I am sure that they will get the game because Thier bowling lineup were already strong like Shaheen, Haris, sikander Raza, and now the beast of t20 format Afghani bowler Rashid khan were added to thier bowling lineup today which make them more stronger and make them capable to defend the 170+ target against the Quetta strong batting lineup.

69 runs to win, and only 6 balls left, another loss for Quetta. Gladiators so far played 4 games and lost 3 of them. Meanwhile, second victory for Lahore in this year PSL. Hussain Talat and Sikander Raza of Lahore are too good with bat today as they scored 26 of 13 balls and 32 of 16 balls.  Shaheen Shah Afridi and David Wise both got 3 wickets. A moral boosting win for Lahore Qalandars today.

Raza and Talat had made striking performance at the end. From the beginning itself every player had contributed for their part, which is perfect team effort. Altogether it had reached good target. From the bowling end David Wiese and Shaheen Afridi took 3 wickets each with the economy 5.75 and 5.50 runs per over which is good in T-20 cricket.

Shaheen Afridi was in full form - and was lucky to get 3 wickets.
Truly Talat and Raze played really well. We have seen some amazing matches so far.
Great games!

Islamabad united scored 116 runs in 14 overs and we have a STRATEGIC TIMEOUT right now. What Islamabad be thinking at this point in time is that Azam Khan and Asif Ali (who are playing well at the moment) to remain not out for the most part of the remaining 6 overs and score at least 10 an over which may lead them to 176 runs which is a good total in my point of view.

Islamabad united did not start the innings well but the good thing about T20 is that even if some players score a quick runs in the later part of the innings, the batting team still gets a good score.

Tom Curran father used to play international cricket for Zimbabwe, and Tom is now playing for England. There is quite a decent number of foreign players involved in PSL 8.
Muhammad Hasnain has picked 2 wikcets so far and is a bit expensive in his 3rd over. In his 3rd over, he gave away 22 runs. Islamabad United will score somewhere around 200 as Azam Khan is batting lethal at the moment.
