Lahore Qalandars VS Karachi Kings

Today there will be 1 match of Pakistan Super League, the match will be between Karachi Kings and Lahore Qalandars. Karachi Kings have won 1 out of 2 matches so far and Lahore Qalandars have played 3 matches and lost 3 matches so far. Today's match could be very interesting and competitive. Lahore Qalandars failed to win due to not being able to bowl well despite targeting big runs in previous 3 matches. Lahore Qalandars have previously lost 3 matches batting first so I think if they win the toss today they might be better to choose their bowling. Let's see which team wins today.

This is a very interesting match in the Pakistan Super League and Karachi Kings are the favorite to win this match because they won the last match and 4th position on the point table of PSL with 2 points. Lahore Qalandars was very disappointed start of PSL losing 3 matches and last position on the point table with zero points. Lahore Qalandars needs to win this match to stay alive in this league. Lahore Qalandars has a top bowling line including Shaheen Shah Afardi and Haris Rouf but they didn't take early wickets to put pressure on other teams. If Lahore Qalandars take the early wickets of Karachi Kings then they have a good chance to win this important match.

Yes it's not KK vs LQ this match is between ARY vs JEO... But LQ has some kind of edge on KK as the KK team is not up to the mark but the previous performance against PZ boosted their confidence so they will play this match with the same intent.
I am going with KK sand KK will surely be won the game tonight.

Right prediction Karchi Kings won this match by 2 wickets. Hard luck for the Lahore Qalandars team they lost 4 matches in PSL. Karchi Kings chase down the target in the last ball of the match. In the first inning Sahibzada Farhan batting well scored 72 runs unbeaten from just 45 balls and reached the Lahore Qalandars total to 170 plus runs in the last 5 overs they scored 50 plus runs. Karachi Kings chase down the target of 176 runs in a loss of 8 wickets. The Player of the Match Kieron Pollard for his outstanding performance in this match scored a fifty and out after scoring 58 runs from just 33 balls. Ahsan Bhatti bowling well they picked 2 important wickets by giving 19 runs but failed to defend the total.

Lahore Qalandars VS Karachi Kings

Today there will be 1 match of Pakistan Super League, the match will be between Karachi Kings and Lahore Qalandars. Karachi Kings have won 1 out of 2 matches so far and Lahore Qalandars have played 3 matches and lost 3 matches so far. Today's match could be very interesting and competitive.

Lahore Qalandars have previously lost 3 matches batting first so I think if they win the toss today they might be better to choose their bowling. Let's see which team wins today.

Lahore Qalandars are batting early in today's match as well. Lahore Qalandars are batting at the invitation of Karachi Kings after losing the toss in today's match. Lahore Qalandars have collected 125 runs by losing 6 wickets in 16.3 overs so far. Although Lahore Qalandars have lost 6 wickets so far, "even then" Lahore Qalandars' run rate is still very good. If Lahore Qalandars can complete the entire innings with such a run rate then Lahore Qalandars can give Karachi Kings a reliable target in today's match. But I have seen the previous matches of Lahore Qalandars where Lahore Qalandars bowling line was weak. Now how much the Lahore Qalandars bowling line has improved in today's match, it will be clear in the second innings. If Lahore Qalandars can strengthen their bowling line in today's match then maybe good things can be expected for Lahore Qalandars in this match.

Today match was between Lahore Qalandar and Karachi king. Karachi king won the toss and first decided bowling. Lahore qalander batsman makes 9 run in 2 over and Karachi king bowler no any wicket against Lahore Qalandar batsman. This is no good started for Lahore qalandar batsman. The next ball Karachi king bowler out the Lahore Qalandar batsman. This is the first achievement for Karachi king team. Once time again Karachi king bowler out the Lahore Qalandar batsman in the first ball of the 9 over. This is the second achievement for Karachi king team. Lahore qalander batsman makes 59 run in 10 over and 3 outs. Lahore qalander batsman are not working hard and struggle and can not make run. Lahore qalander batsman makes 175 run in 20 over and 6 outs. This is the target for Karachi king batsman. This is the easy target for Karachi king batsman. Karachi king batsman can complete this target and won the match.

Can anyone explain to me how is it possible with just Shoaib Malik and Kieron Pollard can any team win the match where against a wonderful bowling line-up of Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf (he was not in form but still) Zaman Khan, Fakhar Zaman, Shaibzada Farhan, and these are the names who gave them 2 times trophy but now what happen to these great players  

Kieron Pollard also played average like a normal T20 match while Shoaib Malik played just average or maybe less than average so how they can win?
These things proved cricket is by chance anything can happen in cricket, in the short form of Karachi King's 'Never judge a book by its cover.' What a match and a surprise win by the Karachi Kings.

Mulan Sultan Vs Quetta Gladiator match Number 11

Pakistan Super League will be played today and will be attended by two teams, Oshaltan Sultan vs Quetta Gladiator. Today's game will be the most contested game as it will be between the top and second place finishers in the points table. But today the Multan Sultan team has a high chance of winning as this team has experienced players and captains whose skills and intelligence have seen the team win many times. I think Rizwan can perform well as the best player today.

[virasog]

The match of Lahore Qalandars vs Karachi Kings was started and in this match, we didn't see much crowd because Karachi Kings had no good players from the Pakistan team, they have very wonderful players but not a touch that Muhammad Amir, Imad Wasim, and Babar Azam gave to them.

Once a time, when Lahore was also not a good team but still, that was a very big match and all the people waited for it. But now, it's just like a normal match. By the way, Always Green and Blue Kit had a very good match as Pakistan vs India and Lahore Qalandars vs Karachi Kings. Now, Karachi lost their star players, and today we have seen those players against them.

Here is the team for both the sides.

Karachi Kings needed 11 runs from the last over and it was a last ball thriller match which was won by the Karachi kings. Ahsan Hafeez got a six on the first ball he bowled of the 19th over and this made the equation too easy for the Karachi kings. Kieron Pollard's and Shoaib Malik's innings recused the Karachi kings otherwise they were not looking to chase this target on the Lahore Cricket ground. They were 44-4 wickets down when Kieron Pollard took the score to 139 runs and at that moment Kieron Pollard was also got out.

Another thing is that this was the first of the thriller matches we saw in the PSL in this season. Most of the matches remain one-sided or the results the known before two to three overs of the match completion.

Yesterday was the match of Karachi Kings vs Lahore Qalandars and I think Shan Masood is not a good captain, as he made just 10 runs in every match and then lost his wicket. He should play PSL but not as captain. He is the first captain in cricket history who had less than one real fan.

If you say at this time, he is not in form so from the last 10 years he was not in form. Now his age 34 and he become a captain but how for a captaincy you need aggression like Virat Kohli. For a captain you need patience like Babar Azam, for captain, others need to have fear like Pat Cummins. For the captain, if you analysis so you can imagine that he is a captain like Kane Williamson. You need a body language like Shaheen Shah Afridi and there is nothing from them in Shan Masood.

Shah Masood has been made test captain of Pakistan team just because of his strong links in PCB. He was not even part of test squad when he was given captaincy by replacing Babar Azam. He has poor test stats as well, as a batsmen in 62 innings he has an average of 28.67. In PSL, his performance in zero but he is lucky as captain that his team is at third sport and won 2 matches so far.

Quetta Gladiator team's bowling line and batting line will depend on how well Quetta Gladiator team can perform in today's match. But Mulan Sultan  The team's bowling line and batting line are very strong for which we can enjoy a very tough match between the two teams today.

Yes it's not KK vs LQ this match is between ARY vs JEO... But LQ has some kind of edge on KK as the KK team is not up to the mark but the previous performance against PZ boosted their confidence so they will play this match with the same intent.
I am going with KK sand KK will surely be won the game tonight.

Yes Pakistan Super League defeat in 4 matches so far is a big shame for Lahore Qalandars team. But in my opinion Lahore Qalandars players are quite good in batting. But because of their bowling weakness, Lahore Qalandars are repeatedly losing matches. Now I think Lahore Qalandars should rethink their bowling side. So that Lahore Qalandars team can again compete hard with other teams of Pakistan Super League. I think if Lahore Qalandars team can develop their bowling line then Lahore Qalandars can become one of the best team in Pakistan Super League. In fact Karachi Kings deserved to win yesterday's match. Because Karachi Kings are good in both batting and bowling.

A doubleheader today starting between MS VS QG. QG has appeared as the best and fully charged team in PSL 9 so far and won their all 3 games but on the other side MS also played very well and just lost 1 game from PZ. This match is going to be a good scoring match both teams having full strength in their batting and bowling sides and i thought QG will win their 4th consecutive game today.
what do you say Members?

Match 12 Lahore Qalandars vs Peshawar Zalmi
This match will be started at Pakistani time 7 pm both teams are struggling with their batting and bowling. PZ only registered 1 victory while on the other side, LQ has not yet registered their 1st victory in PSL 9 couple of close matches LQ lost but their morale is very much up to mark. This match this evening would be a good cracker going to happen tonight.
My vote goes towards the victory of LQ and they will surely register their first victory in PSL 9 today.

The team of Multan Sultan made 180 runs as a target that Quetta Gladiators will chase after the innings break in Multan Cricket Stadium. Muhammad Amir took 2 wickets and one of them was a very good wicket almost it's like a point that can change be game and confidence from Multan Sultan to Quetta. Yes, I am talking about the Iftikhar wicket that was taken by Muhammad Amir on the first ball of Iftikhar that he had played. Muhammad Rizwan made 50 but after making 50 he was out.

According to Cricinfo, Quetta Gladiators have 31 percent to win while Multan has a chance to win is 68 percent. I think they forget Nafay's batting performance, he played poorly in one match but in the second last match, they forgot his performance.

But today the Multan Sultan team has a high chance of winning as this team has experienced players and captains whose skills and intelligence have seen the team win many times.

Quetta Gladiator team will try to win today's match because if Quetta Gladiator team can't win today's match then they can't stay in the 2nd position of the points table. Quetta Gladiator team's bowling line and batting line will depend on how well Quetta Gladiator team can perform in today's match. But Mulan Sultan  The team's bowling line and batting line are very strong for which we can enjoy a very tough match between the two teams today.

Multan Sultan team collected only 180 runs for 4 wickets. The Quetta Gladiator team started the better, from the power play they did well enough to keep control of the wicket and eventually cruise to an easy win. The Quetta Gladiator team has so far collected 104 runs in 12 overs with the loss of three wickets. But the Multan Sultan team is not able to improve the bowling performance so far, if they cannot keep the bowling under pressure then the Multan Sultan team will have to lose in the end.

What a Start by PZ ...incredible that King and Saim both played very nice shots and built an innings towards a big total of 200+.
After 8 overs 74-0.
This is what PZ is lacking in their team and I think today they get this momentum back.

[Unknown Op]

Quetta Gladiator team will try to win today's match because if Quetta Gladiator team can't win today's match then they can't stay in the 2nd position of the points table. Quetta Gladiator team's bowling line and batting line will depend on how well Quetta Gladiator team can perform in today's match. But Mulan Sultan  The team's bowling line and batting line are very strong for which we can enjoy a very tough match between the two teams today.

What a unbeatable performance of Multan Sultan squad in today match against Quetta Gladiator squad and defeated Quetta Gladiator squad with 13 scores and Quetta Gladiator sqaud was unable to achieve 180 scores defeating target. Today Queatta Gladiator sqaud lost this match due bad play in batting inning and Jason Roy  did not displayed actual performance and just collected 12 scores before going to out. Sajjad Ali batter was wiped out at 2 scores and Mohammad Wasim  also did not made real strength and got out at one score which was so bad performance. Multan Sultan squad already were on top 1 rank in standing table and emerging victory in this match they have solidified their rank as number 1 in this competition. Other match also ongoing on crease among Peshawar Zalmi squad and Lahore Qalandar squad.

Peshawar Zalmi won this match by 8 runs against Lahore Qalandars. The Player of the Match is Saim Ayub youngster's performance outstanding in this match scored 88 runs in just 55 balls, unfortunately missed his well-deserved century by 12 runs short but he performed very well and reached the Peshawar Zalmi total to 211 runs. While chasing down the target Lahore Qalandars only managed to score 203 runs in a loss of 6 wickets and just lost the match 8 runs short in the total.

Yet another very close loss for LQ but what a fight by Proteas player he is just brilliant bad luck for Lahorie's. They just decided on an extra 20-30 runs which cost them at the end and from me LQ is almost out of this tournament.

Match 13 Peshawar Zalmi VS Islamabad United

Another Big game for both teams PZ and IU both teams want a win today. PZ is in very good form and they wanted to win this match and register their 3rd consecutive win in PSL9 while IU desperately wants this victory to regain the moment.
Let's see who will win the game and perform well in all departments.

Today is the match of Peshawar Zalmi versus Islamabad United and in this match, you have seen Peshawar Zalmi performance in yesterday's match against Lahore Qalandar as same making 87 runs. At the same time Islamabad United's performance was also not too poor. They played good but on the last match of Islamabad United, their luck is not with them. But their performance was good.

Lahore Qalandar lost other matches but this time they lost against Peshawar Zalmi and I think all the matches that they played in this PSL they will lost due to their bad performance. And now there are more chances to lost of them because now they also lost Haris Rauf for this PSL. He got the same injury like Naseem Shah and Hence he also need very time to recover it.

Lahore Qalandars team luck was not good in the previous season and in this season but in 2022 and 2023 their luck was very good but now their team lacks good performances.

Your vote should now go to Peshawar Zalmi.

Babar Azam's impeccable batting performance at this point helped his team Peshawar Zalmi to post a mammoth innings of 201 runs against Islamabad United. Earlier too Babar Azam's team scored 200 plus runs against the opposition in the 12th match of the Pakistan Super League and even won that match. Today they are walking in the same way today also they managed to score 200 plus runs and probably they will win this match against Islamabad United and if they win this match Peshawar Zalmi team will have the glory of winning three matches in a row. Babar Azam is the biggest credit behind Peshawar Zalmi's 201 runs in this match as he scored a scintillating innings of 111 runs today which is probably the third century of his Pakistan Super League career.
