Alright, after 5 wickets down Faheem Ashraf and Haider Ali score a good partnership. Islamabad United successfully chased down the target and won the match by a huge five wickets against Karachi Kings. The Player of the Match is Faheem Ashraf for his all-round batting and bowling performance scored an important 12 runs unbeaten from just 8 balls and also bowled well picked 2 crucial wickets by just giving 16 runs. Islamabad United is now at the No 2 position on point table of PSL.
I believe that Faheem Ashraf's performance in the match against Karachi Kings was truly outstanding. Not only did he contribute with the bat by scoring crucial runs in a partnership with Haider Ali but he also made a significant impact with the ball by taking important wickets. His all rounder performance was really take a good role in Islamabad United victory and it's great to see them climbing up the points table in the PSL. Faheem Ashraf definitely deserved the Player of the Match award.

Karachi king batsman could not played very well and could not worked hard and struggle and can not gave hard target. If their batsmen could target up to 180, the match was in their hands. And they could have easily won the match. But now the match is not in their hands. Any time Islamabad batsmen work harder and struggle, they will win the match.Islamabad batsmen need 26 runs off 26 balls to win the match. I think so. That Islamabad team will win today's match. The match is going on now. Let's see what the result is.
To be honest Karachi were continuing his worst Season performance by following Lahore Qalanders foot steps, it's true that none of thier big names rather than Pollard perform and especially thier top order and that cost them expensive defeat one after another. Today Karachi collectively scored 150 which isn't enough at such low quality bowling lineup to defend. Anyway Islamabad were looking in trouble especially at last stage but the way thier lower middle order took charge tackle trouble and make handsome runs in order to divert results in favour of them. Now they hold top second position in points table and look like by following Multan sultan they will be second team to qualify for next round. While in my mind soon Peshawar and Quetta will qualify too according to current performance and points 
Islamabad united very close to this victory against Karachi kings. They Need 45 runs from just 41 balls and easily win this match. Islamabad United current score is 107 runs in a loss of 3 wickets. Islamabad United bowling performance is outstanding especially Tymal Mills who picked 3 important wickets and Faheem Ashraf also picked 2 crucial wickets for his team and restricted Karachi Kings to 150 runs. Islamabad United will win this match and stay in the Super Four of the PSL point table.
They may win, but at the same time they have lost a few wickets. Shadab Khan was the last to go, as he was nabbed by Mir Hamza. Anyway, they just need 17 more runs, and they have 5 wickets in hand. Faheem Ashraf and Haider Ali are at the crease and they need to make sure that no further wickets are being lost. And the good news for Islamabad United is that both Mir Hamza and Blessing Muzarabani have completed their full quota of 4 overs. Now the Karachi Kings captain need to resort to Zahid Mahmood and Mohammad Nawaz.
The Bangladesh team won the second T20I very easily. Because the bowling performance has been good and starting from the opening batsman they have performed very well Bangladesh Tiger batsmen. Liton Das, Nazmul Hasan Shanto, Soumya Sarkar performed well because of the good performance of Bangladesh team. But in the first T20I match, the Bangladesh team lost because of the poor performance of these three batsmen Nazmul Hasan Shanto, Liton Das and Samya Sarkar. However, compared to the first match, the second match is completely different for the Bangladesh team.
Bangladesh came very close to victory in the first match and narrowly failed to win. In the first match, Bangladesh managed to score 203 runs in the last ball of the 20th over. There is no room to blame the batsmen because the first row batsmen did badly but the batsmen who came to the wicket later did their duty properly. If you are trying to find the difference between the first match and the second match then you don't have to work hard because the difference is obvious. Bangladesh bowlers did not bowl well in the first match but Bangladesh bowlers bowled well in the second match and that's where Bangladesh turned around.

In the PSL match between Islamabad United and Karachi Kings, KK gave a target of 151 runs to IU. Islamabad United is 33/1 in 4 overs. The chances of Islamabad winning are high. They should win this match with a significant margin to improve their net run rate. Karachi needs quick wickets inside Powerplay to win the match. If they continuously put pressure on IU batting, they might panic and give Karachi easy wickets like yesterday's match.

UPW disappointed me so freaking much. They bowled well and restricted MI to a below par target, but are batting like total amateurs. Shabnim Ismail's raw pace is too much for them. Crazy spell!
Grace Harris was playing test cricket for a while when she scored 0 runs in 14 balls. Am expecting MI, DC and RCB to make it to the top 3 at the end.

Islamabad United won the toss and chose to field first. Karachi Kings are 49/4 in the 9th over. They are in trouble. If they can make 160, they might have a chance to win the match. Pollard will be the key wicket here.
Kings won their last match comfortably and will try to win this match as well to get themselves a chance to play the knockouts. While Islamabad's batting performance in the last was average. Although they have big names in their team, they could not justify their reputation in the match.
This match will be interesting, but I will still favour IU against KK as KK's top order is also not in very good form. If IU gets the wicket of Pollard, the game will be over for KK. I am particularly disappointed with Shadab's team selection; why play Imad if he is not in good form? He could have given a chance to a youngster.
Karachi Kings won their yesterday game against Quetta Gladiators comfortably and mostly were expecting they will keep this momentum against Islamabad United for having chance to qualify for the play-offs but sadly today their batting fail to give them good target, and we have good bowling from the Faheem Ashraf and Mills which help their team Islamabad United for keeping their hopes alive for the play-offs after having bat first Karachi Kings able to score 150 runs which is surely not enough for having win for them but still we can hope good competition between these two teams as while Islamabad United is on chase after first three overs they are having just 28 runs with the lost of Munro which is bowled by Mir Hamza hopefully we will have good match as now remaining target is 123 in 17 overs for the win and having second spot for few days. Kings won their last match comfortably and will try to win this match as well to get themselves a chance to play the knockouts. While Islamabad's batting performance in the last was average.

Karachi's top order struggled against Islamabad bowlers, and a few of them got the start but could not capitalize on it. Pollard's cameo at the end helped Karachi to a respectable but below-par score. Tymal Mills and Faheem Ashraf bowled exceptionally well today. KK should rest their captain, Shan Masood, as he is a burden on the team. He hasn't played a single impact inning; he is a liability for KK.

In the PSL match between Islamabad United and Lahore Qalandars, LQ won the match by 17 runs. A bellow average performance from Lahore batters. Apart from van der Dussen, no other batter scored big. In response, IU lost half of their team inside power play. A little cameo from Naseem and Faheem kept the game alive for IU fans. Lahore bowling was too good for IU.
Yesterday for the first time in this PSL, Lahore Qalandars got victory against the team who beat them in their home ground at the first match of PSL. In which, at the middle of the first innings while Lahore at batting so on that time Qalandars had many chances to lose the match but Shaheen came as a batsman and led them to win.
After this type of play of Shahaeen at batting, I remembered the match of 2023 PSL Semi-final in which Zalmi vs Qalandars were playing and by chance Shaheen came on batting and what a wonderful strike he did which was better than the batsmen of Lahore Qalandars and in last ball Lahore Qalandars needed 7 runs to win so he hit a powerful six which cause of super over and in super over Lahore Qalandars got victory.
An impressive batting effort from Bangladesh against Sri Lanka. They were very close to winning the 1st T20I. Chasing such a target on these pitches is very difficult based on what we saw in BPL. Winning by 8 wickets is impressive. All Bangladesh batters batted aggressively. Shanto played a captain's inning.
Yes first match was very close. In the last over Bangladesh lost wickets. 10 runs was required to score the level where shanka bowled pretty well and win the match. Bangladesh performance is improving especially in T20. This 2nd match Bangladesh batsmens were looking so confidence from the start. Shanto is diamond players just like Ronkhi in india team. Now the last T20 will decide who will win the series. Third match will be more impressive and both team will be looking to win the series.
