Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators, PSL 2016, final
Anwar Ali was swinging bat like baseball. Thats stupid cricket. You have a specialist hitter on other end, give him freaking strike. Such a waste
Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators, PSL 2016, final
That being said Gladiators have got runs on the board
Target of 170 +/- will take some chasing

Mohammad Sami to Anwar Ali, no run, Anwar can't cool himself down. Five dots in the penultimate over. Anwar nearly swings himself off his feet. Ugly, dirty, filthy

Mohammad Sami to Anwar Ali, FOUR, short and outside off, Anwar sits back and slogs to the cow corner fence, bisecting deep midwicket and long-on
Daniyal: "A bit disappointed with Sarfraz in this PSL. He's been good as a captain but his batting has lacked the fight we have grown used to seeing. The audacious sweep, the hurried single; signatures of his innings as a batsman yet he has looked timid when we has come out to bat as if he's confused about his role now that he is captain."
18.1
Mohammad Sami to Anwar Ali, no run, down the track, Sami pulls his length back outside off. Anwar has a big whoosh and does not connect

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators, PSL 2016, final
175 is the target for Islamabad United
A big ask in a pressure game
Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators, PSL 2016, final
Thats a good score. 175 to chase wont be easy BUT totally getable.
Russel is now the leading wickettaker.
Here the highlights of Sangakara/Shezad partnership that lead to this score:
Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators, PSL 2016, final
Not so productive the death overs for Glads...Quetta could cheer for something tonight... :D
Just 175 is the target for United...could be a good chase... :D
Watching Pakistan play against the rest of the world is quite stressful..but watching Pakistan play against Pakistan....ahhhhhh...too much stress....toooooo much!!
Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators, PSL 2016, final
Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators, PSL 2016, final
Shehzad has made a strong case for himself to be selected for World T20.
Breaking news: Manzoor sustains hairline fracture of finger during practice session for Asia Cup. 'Afridi's Buddy' Shehzad likely to be recalled by the selectors :D
Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators, PSL 2016, final
Thats the old Ejaz Ahmad trick, not to do anything in the whole series and score 50+ in the last inning to get selected again
Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators, PSL 2016, final
