The reason for the mixed performance by the overseas players could be the change in venue. When half of the tournament is played in one country and the rest of the tournament is played in different country, sometime it is difficult to keep the same form. Its not easy to adjust in all conditions so quickly.

That should be the case with Pakistani players as well, right? They are also playing the first half in Pakistan and then facing a shift in venue to UAE for the second part. Also, some of the overseas players such as James Faulkner and Tim David have performed exceptionally well during the second half of the tournament so far. I am more worried about some of the South African and West Indian players, who have failed to perform so far. But I understand that it is tough for everyone, with all these bio-bubbles and quarantine requirements.

If they are able to save 43% of tax it is a huge number and they do not need to complain further and look for alternatives.

The government also needs to think about it. Once of the reason why the ICC was not very keen to allow India to host the tournament was due to the fact that the tax rate is too high there. Most of the countries grant tax exemption to global sporting events, but India never does that. The government needs to realize that there is a lot of indirect benefit from hosting such tournaments, and they can generate a lot of jobs and improve the tourist potential. And also, the generation of indirect taxes also needs to be taken in to account.

What can you expect from a third world country? Government wants a piece of everything in India. They say it is for the benefits of the citizen. To an extent it is true, but not all. The best they should do is reduced the tax. I agree that 43 percent is a big number, they should be realistic and think about other benefits that tournament like this bring to the country.

I thought that India could not host the tournament at the moment because of the pandemic situation there. I don't think any country will refuse to host the tournament in their own country because of more taxes etc. The monetary benefits which comes with hosting, can take over all the taxes.

Whenever such big sporting events are organized in a country the biggest earning comes through tourism but looking at the present pandemic situation that would be negligible. Another benefit is indirect job creation but I cannot comment on that considering the situation. The only way Indian government can make some money is I think through taxes but the percentage is huge. They should think about the future and not the present situation.

The PSL so far has been a mixed bag for the overseas players. A few of them have performed exceptionally well, such as Colin Munro, James Faulkner and Tim David. But there have been a few disappointments as well. Examples are Rilee Rossouw and Ben Dunk. A lot was expected from them, but these players seems to be struggling to adjust to the bubble life and the conditions at UAE. Chadwick Walton of Karachi Kings is another player whose performance has been unsatisfactory so far.

Karachi Kings won the today match and my dream of Lahore Qalandar to qualify for the Semi-Finals shattered.  Cry

At one moment Quetta took control of the match and seems that could bowl out Karachi under 150 runs but a 33 run over changed the whole complexion of the match.
Who is this Danish Aziz who scored 45 runs in just 13 balls, that is some power hitting with a strike rate of 346 which is unheard off from a player who is not playing for the national team and Pakistan needs to groom players like these who can change the match like this and because of his incredible innings Karachi kings was able to put a good total on the board and win the match.

Danish Aziz made his debut in ODI and T20 in April 2021. He is a very new talent but we have not seen his performance in international cricket. He has only played couple of International ODI and 2 T20 Matches. He is playing for Karachi Kings at domestic level and has impressed everyone with his performance.

Danish Aziz is a new player in Pakistan international team, though he is playing in PSL since last few years. He played his first international T-20 match against Zimbabwe two months ago. Danish Aziz has shown impressive batting performance yesterday. This is not like a regular batting show of T-20 matches. I think it just happened fortunately. And he won't be able to keep his strike rate high like this. Although he can be a good option for Pakistan cricket team in future.
Danish Aziz is a talented prospect especially in the T20 format and Pakistan always produced big hitters of the ball who could clear the boundary with ease but the players they had in the past were not consistent and if Danish Aziz can be consistent and then produce these wonderful innings when the team needed he could be a permanent stay in the team.

Lahore Qalandar lost miserably yesterday in their fourth consecutive loss. They could only made 89 runs while chasing 170 runs.

I think this loss is the nail in the coffin and its impossible for them to reach the knock out stages for my home city team.

Apart from the overseas players, who is performing in the LQ lineup? Yesterday they were really pathetic and couldn't even manage a total of 100. James Faulkner performed well once again, top scoring with the bat for LQ and taking two wickets. The issue was that Tim David failed yesterday. He was the one who formed the backbone of the LQ batting, as most of their other batsmen are out of form. Fakhar Zaman has only made a total of 98 runs in 7 matches, since the PSL re-started. Ben Dunk has scored 18 runs from his last 4 matches and Mohammad Hafeez has scored 90 runs from 6 matches.

Just checked that Lahore Qalandar  still have an outside chance of qualifying for the knockouts if in todays match Quetta does an upset and Karachi loses.
Although this is difficult to happen but still fingers crossed to see this upset happening today.

Karachi Kings can win today. I think so. Karachi Kings gave a target of 177 runs to Quetta Gladiators. Quetta scored 72 runs in 10 overs, losing 2 wickets. They need 105 runs in 10 overs. Karachi bowlers bowled well. Let's see who will win the match.

Lahore Qalandars got a boost from the excellent performances from James Faulkner and Rashid Khan so far. But they were unfortunate to lose their last two matches. Faulkner now have 11 wickets to his name, from just 4 matches. Rashid has only 8 wickets, but his economy rate has been unbelievable (5.50 per over). If LQ manages to lose despite the presence of these two players, then it means that their batting is just shit. Apart from Tim David, the others are not in good form (especially Fakhar Zaman and Mohammad Hafeez).

Yesterday Lahore Qalandars again lost another match against Karachi.  Sad
Losing three consecutive matches in PSL means shift in the momentum and now they are struggle to survive in the tournament.

Lahore Qalandars were looking great but their recent two loses make the tournament wide open for all the teams.

But at the same time, the government was compelling them to stage the remainder of the tournament in India. The government is also running short of money (as the tax collections have been impacted by the COVID pandemic). In the end, Ganguly and the rest of the BCCI management convinced the central government that foreign players are unlikely to take part if the tournament is held in India.
You seriously think the central government is running short of money, what about the money they made selling off all the PSU at cheap rate, the large donations they got and yet no transparency on how much they got and where they used that money including the COVID donations and yet the government is not willing to provide free vaccine to everyone.
 
During elections the central ruling party spent around 400 to 700 crore in Kerala alone and they did not win a single seat and imagine how much they will be spending in states where they had a chance and it came to light when black money which was sent for election purpose by the BJP was stolen by another another group of BJP workers. And think about the petrol and diesel charges and how they are looting everyone with huge taxes and you think the central government is not having money, yes they do not have money for the common people nor they do not care about anyone.

Does BCCI needs to convince the central government for them to make decisions, i am hearing this for the first time.
