Yeh Dhuwaan saa kahaan say uTh raha hay :slight_smile:

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

IU making the same mistake Karachi made yesterday. 118/4 with just 4 overs left. What are they saving wickets for?

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

This last over will be decisive, 15 to 20 runs IU needs to stay in the game

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

10 runs from 1st 2 balls by Watson

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

Another SIX

4 6 6

WATSON all the way

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

IU 165/5 20 overs

Fighting total…QG have equal chance to win

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

Its a respectable score. But Quetta faced a similar situation yesterday so they just need to follow the line.

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

IU did it

What a match…Watson won it for IU in 20th over of 1st innings…

Sami did well…Anwar Ali could have taken single first ball but he wanted to be Elliot!

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

Thats crazy.. really crazy. How in the world this game went till the last ball. Somebody should investigate.

Glads stink if they cant if they scored only 5 runs in last two overs and they still had 5 wickets in hand!!! Thats a super loser attitude.

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

Buhahahahahahaha

IU off to next level…

LQ off to Lahore…

Buhahahaha

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

Anwar Ali lost his nerves…all he had to do is to take single of 1st ball but he tried to smash it out of the ground…and repeated the same again on another lousy delivery…

And with 2 dot balls…and 5 runs to score and crazy runout…they have to loose…

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

No thats not only Anwar Ali. with 2 overs and 7 runs to win it should have never gone to the last over. They had 7 wickets in hand FFS. And then missing so many balls?? Its ridiculous.

I want to give credit to Sami and Misbah but trust me its less about them and more about Quetta getting choked right at the finish line.

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

It is my observation in the cricket that if team batting first manages to score high in the last 2-3 overs it tilts the momentum towards them…and team batting 2nd often loose because of runs scored in those last overs…it was Watson’s 3 shots..4 , 6 & 6 which QG couldnt get…and it is not 1st time Anwar Ali choked…it was wrong decision to send him up in the order…when only 5 runs were needed and lots of wickets of wickets in hand…Anwar Ali choked twice…1st while bowling to Watson and 2ndly facing Sami…just check out the 1st two deliveries of Sami…he was asking to be smacked out of stadium…

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

And thats exactly Pakistani team is lacking…“Finishing”…since Razaq is out…we dont have finisher…the other day when IU was playing LQ and it was Elliot who saved the day otherwise LQ lost their 4/5 wickets in matter of 20-30 runs and had same situation where the were 9 wkts down and 4 deliveries left and 4 or 5 runs required…put a Pakistani player there and he would have done exactly what Anwar Ali did today

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

How to lose a won match ask Gladiators. match fixing. ;snooty:

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

SaR pujh ker reh gaay kuch log…

BTW points table per LQ kahaan stand kerti hay??? :slight_smile:

Re: Islamabad United v Quetta Gladiators

Today’s match v/s Karachi will announce Lahore’s fate.

I just dont think Kings deserve a place in playoffs. They should be eliminated
