Match Thread PSL 8 | Qualifier 2 | Lahore Qalandars vs Peshawar Zalmi | Lahore | 17th Mar 2023

[Gotham Cronie]

Peshawar's bowlers shined yesterday. But normally they struggle, so close to 200 may be best

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

98/1 after 10 overs

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Maaro es Rashid to aur maaro

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Need 200 on the board.

 

[Inswinger]

Need 200 on the board.

We struggle chasing anything over 180. It’s Fakhar or bust for us.

If this partnership is broken I can see Zalmi finishing around 160. The rest of their batting isn’t very reliable.

 

[PakistanZ!]

Peshawar are flying atm. With our chasing record they’ll be more than comfortable

It’s just this partnership though. If one these two gets out we will restrict them to a par score.

We made 76 last game bro

 

[Inswinger]

We made 76 last game bro

Don’t think Zalmi’s bowling will do that to us.

 

[PakistanZ!]

Don’t think Zalmi’s bowling will do that to us.

Yeah but 4/4 Ls chasing and failing to make 100 doesn’t make me confident. Let’s see what Fakhar is planning to do

 

[PakistanZ!]

Was Lahore crowd chanting for Haris?

 

[PakistanZ!]

Dammit Babar gone. Review

 

[Kaleem]

Crap umpiring, that shouldn't have been given.

 

[PakistanZ!]

That was a very very very tough call

 

[Kaleem]

Babar falls to leg spin/googly again though.

 

[Mohsin]

RK gets Babar. Oh the surprise (even if it is a free wicket to him)

 

[PakistanZ!]

RASHIIIID

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

TKC tera bhera gharak ho Gone for Andaa

 

[PakistanZ!]

RK gets Babar. Oh the surprise (even if it is a free wicket to him)

@Choi Saab

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Giving free wickets to Rashid

 

[Kaleem]

TKC just a waste of money. Bigger khota than Choi.

 

[PakistanZ!]

Babar falls to leg spin/googly again though.

Definitely his biggest weakness in an otherwise perfect game. Needs to drill that googly with Shaddy

 

[PakistanZ!]

TKC just a waste of money. Bigger khota than Choi.

Is that possible

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Losing the momentum again like yesterday.

 

[Mohsin]

RK always manages to get free wickets

 

[Kaleem]

Definitely his biggest weakness in an otherwise perfect game. Needs to drill that googly with Shaddy

Yeah man he's nearly perfect with no other glaring weaknesses. Just needs to sort this out. I'm sure he'll figure it out soon.

 

[Kaleem]

Is that possible

I may have gotten a bit carried away tbh.

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Lol now they can't even hot Weise.

 

[PakistanZ!]

Yeah man he's nearly perfect with no other glaring weaknesses. Just needs to sort this out. I'm sure he'll figure it out soon.

Everyone has a weakness. Kohli’s got his fishing at 4th stump for example. Just need to work on it

 

[PakistanZ!]

Wow Haris what a shot!

 

[Kaleem]

Everyone has a weakness. Kohli’s got his fishing at 4th stump for example. Just need to work on it

For sure, but the interesting part is that Babar is so damn close to being perfect. He doesn't even have to become dominant against leg spin or anything, just be competent enough to not get out to it and he'll be good.

 

[PakistanZ!]

Didn’t realise Hussain Talat is dropped Shukar. But who tf is Ahsan Bhatti. Name gives bad vibes

 

[PakistanZ!]

Haris really working on that slog sweep against spin

 

[Inswinger]

180 could be a winning score here.

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Need to attack more

 

[Kaleem]

Rauf bowling an elite spell

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Yaar Rauf Dangar ko tu maaro

 

[PakistanZ!]

Rauf bowling an elite spell

Such a valuable bowler

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Going no where with these singles. Needs Fours & Sixers

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Yaar can't even hit Rauf now. :fp
