Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah, Feb

Quetta Gladiators won the toss and elected to bat…

This match is of academic nature as both teams have qualified for the next round…

We will see some other players like Sangakkara & Brad Hodge with bat and ball… :smiley:

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Glads 47/4 off 7.2 overs...

A little physical & verbal between Shehzad and Wahab Riaz...both could expect fines... :D

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Glads 61/6 the halfway... :D

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

A funny innings by Glads… 129 all out in 18 overs… Ist wicket 40 + last wicket 63= 103 and the rest did the rest… :smiley:

Last wicket partnership( Babar & Elliot) is 63 (32)…a world record… :k:

Afridi 5/7 + a runout…his career best… :smiley:

Zalmi need 130 to win…should not be difficult…

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

How can 61 for 6 be halfway. Isn't halfway when 5 wickets fall. Or when the Team has scored half its runs

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Malan 60* and Zalmi win by 8 wickets… :k:

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Amazing bowling by Afridi.

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

In this case...the halfway is 10 overs... :D

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Wahab Riaz should have been fined for his 90% of the match fee (and or banned for at least for the next 4 matches provided the law

allowed) because he initiated the provocation and Ahmed Shehzad should have been fined the 10% of the match fee because he did not

walked off the provocation... :D

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Wahab Riaz ko koi sumjhaee. Sirf verbal fight se u r not going to become shoaib akhtar. He had sheer pace while Riaz had bouncer only. .. no comparison

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Not clear, if you see the incident Shehzad's back is towards the camera so you dont know what happened. Shehzad raised his bat towards him and than Wahab said something. Maybe he provoked him by saying something like how was that 6. We just do to know so lets not blame Wahab only.

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Bowlers abuse all the time. And sometimes batsmen respond as well. But it should all be verbally. Sledging has been done by a lot of fielders as well.
However, there is one boundary here. Its verbal v/s physical attack.
Any physical contact should be harshly punished. And we clearly saw the physical contact was initiated by Wahab.

In all the team games (except icehockey), the physical blow is always an automatic ejection. I strongly think wahab should be banned for a game while shehzad should be fined.

Just imagine wahab pushing any opposition player in a international match. I'm sure consequences will be more than what we see here.

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Wahab trying to be poor man's Shoaib Akhtar with cheap and over the top display of aggression.

The dead rubber match was barely four overs old, the run rate was average and you get a flippin opener out but you react as if you got Sachin Tendulkar out on 99 in a WC match.

Shahzad should have told him to get a life and walked away. Idiot.

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

it was Shehzad who bumped into Wahab. Dont blame Wahab. Shehzad needs to get a life, sore loser as he was thrown out of the team and rightly so, even his friendship with afridi could not save him.

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Thats so not true. Lets watch it in slo-mo around 45 seconds of the following vid..

-Shehzad after getting out was going in a straight direction
-WAhab changed the direction and moved towards shehzad to block him
-Wahab shoved and pushed him
-Shehzad stopped
-Shehzad changed direction and started moving
-Both kept saying something obviously

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Check again Shehzad comes straight into Wahab. Watch at 0.45. Wahab didnt change direction. Shehzad not only walked straight into him but also pushed him. At the end of the day it was not right on part of both but it was the 6 on the ball before which led to this altercation. storm in a tea cup, blown out of proportion.

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Both of them have been fined… Wahab 40% while Ahmed 30%

Wahab, Shehzad fined for ‘inappropriate’ exchange of words - Sport - DAWN.COM

Re: Pakistan Super League, 17th Match: Quetta Gladiators v Peshawar Zalmi at Sharjah,

Shahzad is an idiot

Wahab is awesome
