PSL V - 2020

Its great to have PSL back. And this time everything in Pakistan :jhanda:

First game going on currently at Karachi : Current champion Quetta Glads v/s First champion Islamabad United

:cheer:

Quetta gladiators won

I didnt know Moin Khan's son Azam had such fire power. He did great. Looks totally out of shape ofcourse but he ran fast between wickets.

It was a great match, and Glads show their middle and lower order batting strength despite top order's quick depart.

United's Akif looks really impressive. Very unlucky to have catches dropped. Shadab however was pathetic and got hit atleast a six in every single over he bowled.

LQ started off from where they finished.. ending up on mediocre 138. Afridi eleven were good enough for them.

Before that, KK became the first team to cross 200 this season. PZ reached a good total as well which raised questions on KK's bowling ability

Just saw the thriller between LQ and IU.

Despite the heroic bowling of Afridi and a good score LQ got subdued by IU's tail? Thats a wow. LQ's captain certainly had no clue how to manage in field. Rauf's bowling looked very ordinary. Shinwari was terrible. Great game in the end.

This time I am really really sad for Rana sahb. His players really letting him down. They should have won ...

Nice match Quetta Vs ISB.
ben cutting winning it for Quetta

Yes what a classic game. Both IU and QG are the best teams. But great chase by QG.

Now nobody can blame LQ for not defending 182 lol

Finallyyyy, a convincing win for KK. Chasing 183 runs before 8 balls despite Babar Azam getting out for 0. A good show. But they have a lot to catchup to be within top 4.

Yes . That is a good victory mainly due to initial hitting by sharjeel . But he is soo lazy. He dropped catch and also got out due to lazineslaziness.
umar khan's spell did made difference.

Quetta Gladiators are crashing right now after losing atleast 4 games consecutively. And getting all out for 98 is just plain terrible.

Tomorrow is the big clash. Lahore v/s Karachi. Will be fun :)

Big spinning wicket made Quetta batting destroyed.

KK gave 188 target to LQ which is very much achievable. Somehow I think KK could easily have gone 200+ but they missed few chances. LQ has the fire power to easily achieve this score. So it all falls back to Amir & co as how they ball

Yesterday KK had the final laugh over LQ beating them very comprehensively with 10 wickets, thanks to LQ's poor fielding.

Today, the game is played in an empty stadium with practically no crowd due to Corona virus. And it hurts to see it that way. Very sad.

And the PSL got postponed today right on semis day after Alex hailes showed symptoms of COVID-19. He is already gone back. Wishing him all the health.

So unfortunately its the curtains. Quetta Gladiator still the champ despite not even reaching playoffs this year :slight_smile:

:jhanda:

PSL 2020 is back with the epic final between rivals Lahore Qals and Karachi Kings. Who expected that eh!

So far final contest has always been distributed three times, Quetta Glads, Zalmis and Isl united. Not this time. Its the underdogs over the top now!

Cheers to PSL management for taking this bold decision to finish the tournament before 2021. :cheer:
