UAE was the home ground of Pakistan for a decade and only recently PCB started conducting matches in Pakistan but due to the mishap they were forced to move the PSL to UAE and i assume it is not a big deal as audience were not allowed and it is not a big loss for them in terms of gate revenue.

I know that UAE was the home ground for Pakistan. But back in the 1990s, Sharjah Cup was regarded as one of the premier cricket tournaments in the world. But the growth of cricket in the UAE came to an abrupt halt, when the BCCI decided not to play there anymore, after the match fixing scandal (a few other locations were also banned, such as Singapore and Toronto). It was a big blow for the ECB, because individuals such as Abdul Rehman Bukhatir played a huge role in making cricket popular across the globe.

Yes, the big final will be played tomorrow. Its good to see the tournament coming to the end successfully but at the same time i am sad as we will have to wait for one whole year for the next edition of PSL.
What is your prediction for the match.


I think Peshawar Zalmi are looking more strong than the Multan team. Hazratullah Zazai is in great form and if he gets going, Peshawar Zalmi can chase any score. If you want to bet, you should bet on Peshawar Zalmi. Rest it depends which teams handle the final game pressure and comes out as a winner.

Anyway, congratulations to the PCB, for organizing the second phase of the PSL in such an organized manner. They faced a lot of criticism for the bubble breach in the first phase. But they made sure that the mistakes were not repeated. And congratulations to the Emirates Cricket Board as well. After a gap of two decades, the UAE is once again emerging as a major cricket hub.

OK.. so PSL is coming to a conclusion and the final match will be played tomorrow. Multan Sultans and Peshawar Zalmi will play in the final match and it is difficult to predict who has better chances.

PSL is really unpredictable, i was watching the match and i never expected Islamabad United to post 174 runs let alone be competitive in this match because they were down at 110 for the loss of 8 wickets and then had a resurgence which was unpredictable and even though they reached those runs Peshawar Zalmi chased the total in less than 17 overs.

Anyone here making bets on PSL? if so how is the experience when you have unpredictable matches like these.

After 15.4 overs, Islamabad United was at 110/8. Then came the partnership between Hasan Ali and Mohammad Wasim, which added an astounding 62 runs in 4 overs. Anyway, IU lost the match by a good margin, with Hazratullah Zazai and Jonathan Wells destroying the United bowlers and putting up a partnership of 126 runs for the second wicket. The problem with United is that they are overdependent on a few individual players (Usman Khawaja, Colin Munro, Hasan Ali.etc), with the rest hardly contributing.

I will not say that the batsmen of Islamabad United have played badly. Hasan Ali and Colin Munro have done great performances. But the performance of Islamabad's bowlers was very poor. All the bowlers gave a lot of runs. Islamabad United has lost two matches in a row. They need to be more focused on their game.

There is no benefit for the Islamabad to remain focus on their performance, because the lost have eliminated them out of the tournament. Peshawar Zalmi played incredibly well and it was not possible for Islamabad to save the match although they managed to score decent in this eliminator match.

Surprising that no one is really talking about the T20 World Cup, which is scheduled for October. All the discussion has been focussed on the franchise T20 leagues. BTW, from 2024 onwards, the T20 World Cup is going to feature 20 teams (4 groups with 5 teams each). But my concern is that instead of genuine teams such as Scotland, Netherlands, Nepal, PNG and Kenya, we will be having teams from Kuwait, Qatar.etc, which will be entirely made up of foreign nationals. The USACA is also recruiting a lot of first class players from India, Pakistan and South Africa nowadays. The eligibility rules need to be tightened, or else only the richest boards will be able to participate in these tournaments.

@Sithara007 that’s the beauty of T20 matches because you cannot rule out anyone, and hence I wager limited bets on T20 fixtures. Furthermore I’m not really wagering on PSL due to lack of information about the teams, hence if someone here can share detailed information and their predictions it’ll help us all make informed decisions regarding PSL fixtures.

You are right. The emergence of such a talent from Zimbabwe is truly astonishing. Earlier the Zimbabwe team was strong enough. They fought hard against big teams. Now they are very weak. Hopefully there will be more talented players like Muzarabani in the Zimbabwe team and Zimbabwe will regain their old glory.

Emergence of indigenous cricketers such as Blessing Muzarabani is good news for the future of Zimbabwe cricket. They can't depend on the white community for cricket, because the white population has gone down from 300,000 to 25,000 in the last four decades. And the outflow of white cricketers from Zimbabwe is not a recent phenomenon. Graeme Hick, one of the best English players of the 80s was born in Zimbabwe and changed his nationality later. Recent examples include Sam Curran, Colin de Grandhomme and Gary Ballance.

When indigenous players such as Trevor Madondo and Pommie Mbangwa represented Zimbabwe for the first time, it was considered as an exception. Because back then, cricket was largely considered as a white sport in Zimbabwe. Henry Olonga was the first black to play for Zimbabwe, but he was born in Zambia to a Kenyan father.

-----------

Islamabad United seems to have started well, and they are 62/2 after 7 overs. Colin Munro is so far responsible for two-third of those runs.

Sohail Tanvir and Muzarabani bowled brilliantly. The Multan Sultans were able to win this match mainly because of their superb bowling. Islamabad United's batting lineup was very strong. If Tanvir and Muzarabani had not been able to pick up valuable wickets, Islamabad United would have won yesterday's match as usual.

Surprised with Muzarabani. And it is good to see such a young talent emerging from Zimbabwe. I was thinking that cricket there is dead for all practical purposes, with the departure of players such as Brendan Taylor and Sean Williams. And nice to see so many players from Zimbabwe, Afghanistan and Ireland taking part in the PSL. If I am not wrong, they also had players from Nepal and the US (Sandeep Lamichhane and Ali Khan), in addition to players from the UAE.

In today's match I bet for Multan Sultans. I bet a lot of risk. Because Islamabad United was the favorite in this match. But I didn't think Islamabad United would lose all their wickets for just 149 runs. I thought the match would be competitive and Islamabad would be able to score at least 160 more runs. This was Islamabad United's second defeat of the season.

Very heavy defeat for Islamabad United, as they lost the match by 31 runs. Usman Khawaja made another good score for the United, but the other batsmen failed. And in the previous matches it as Colin Munro who formed the backbone for Islamabad batting, but this time he got out for 0. Sohail Tanvir finally seems to have found his rhythm. In the 4 previous matches he had only one wicket to his name. Also, Multans' signing of Blessing Muzarabani is proving to be a good move. He picked some important wickets yesterday.

I thought your guess wouldn't be right. Because in the 16th over, after losing the wicket of Maqsood, the players of Multan Sultans were collecting only 5 runs in the 17th over. But they scored 29 runs in the 18th over. With the help of Khushdil Shah's superb performance of 42 off 22 balls, Multan Sultans managed to score 180 runs in 20 overs. This seems to be enough to win.

Well.. looks like it's all over for Islamabad United. They need another 120 runs in 10 overs, with just 5 wickets remaining. Colin Munro got out for 0 in the first over and at that point the chances of any IU win dropped to less than 10%. Usman Khawaja is still there, but he is not someone who is capable of scoring at a rate of two runs a ball (not ignoring the fact that just a few days back he hit 105 from 56 balls). For MS, Sohail Tanvir is looking really good. On top of that, their surprise package Blessing Muzarabani also performed well today.

I am now enjoying the match between Islamabad United and Multan Sultans, the two strongest teams in PSL. At the end of 16 overs, the players of Multas Sultans scored 132 runs,by losing 4 wickets. Sohaib Maqsood is unbeaten on 55 runs. I think Multan Sultans will be able to collect 175 runs. And it's a big target for any strong team. But the batsmen of the Islamabad team are experienced enough and they are in form now. So, the result of this match is hard to guess right now.
