A light hearted look at the debacle of Qalanders.
Re: Lahore team
Bowling attack let them down. scored decent runs esp. in the latter half of the league games
Franchise needs to buy/select better bowlers next time. Batting alone won’t win you games
Azhar is a pathetic captain.
Re: Lahore team
Well analysing every single team and comparing with Qalanders, I think they had the right people in the batting lineup but just didnt fire at the right matches, especially in the begining. To me Karachi is the weakest team. And losing both games against Kings is something which really hurt Qals.
And their bowling was aweful. On the top the captaincy was bad. For example when they had almost wont he match against Glads, last over was given to Zohaib who sucks tbh. And that last delivery on which Nabi hit a boundary was a terrible one. So they threw it away otherwise they would be playing tomorrow.
Re: Lahore team
It was always one of the weakest sides - bunch of wild kids like batsmen put together. However because it was a big city, big label team, it just became needlessly over-hyped by their media sponsor group and their naturally huge group of supporters.
The captaincy was beyond horrendous. Can’t believe the worst captain of the league is actually the captain of Pakistan’s international T20. Given his status, you would have expected him to be on a totally different level.
But I’m glad they are out - the most endearing and perhaps the most historic feature of this PSL is the astonishing rise of the ‘small’ label teams.
Re: Lahore team
Get your point but Azhar is the current ODI captain not T20 (Afridi)
Have been saying this even before Azhar was appointed ODI captain (a pathetic decision by PCB at Misbah’s recommendation) that he does not deserve to be in the ODI side let alone be it’s captain!!
Re: Lahore team
That is a pathetic board who will appoint next captain based on outgoing captain captain… is this “Khilafat” where outgoing khalifa nominates the next one? I think PCB fed BS to media and people which they gobbled up easily. I think it was Waqar who picked the captain, not really Misbah because he wanted another easy ‘yes sir’ captain to work with.
