2017-2018 Pakistan Super League

Great batting from the Gladiators, McCullum as economical as always. Hopefully we can keep the momentum going.
 
WOW. That innings might just turn our season around
 
The poor bowling...
 
It's happened to us twice now. First with Junaid Khans 6-for and now Misbah. Can't do much about performances like that.

QUETTA GLADIATORS' INNINGS
Code:
0.1  Bilawal Bhatti to Ahmed Shehzad, Very well bowled.  (0) 
0.2  Bilawal Bhatti to Ahmed Shehzad, EDGED AND TAKE...DROPPED! The keeper drops it! A simple chance and he fluffs it! Single.  (1) 
0.3  Bilawal Bhatti to Bismillah Khan, The batsman looks surprised that that ball wasn't called a wide. The bowler's grinning as he makes his way back to his mark.  (0) 
0.4  Bilawal Bhatti to Bismillah Khan, Good running, two runs.  (2) 
0.5  Bilawal Bhatti to Bismillah Khan, Very well bowled.  (0)

Bilawal Bhatti    1-0-5-0


1.1  Sohail Tanvir to Ahmed Shehzad, Wide, no run.  (1) 
1.1  Sohail Tanvir to Ahmed Shehzad, Tucked away to the leg side, they're running hard, but only manage a single.  (1) 
1.2  Sohail Tanvir to Bismillah Khan, He's slogged that down to cow corner. Long on runs in to field, and the batsmen get two. The captain is clearly not very happy with his fielder's effort there.  (2) 
1.3  Sohail Tanvir to Bismillah Khan, That one deviated sharply of the pitch, the batsman had no chance of playing that. Dot ball.  (0) 
1.4  Sohail Tanvir to Bismillah Khan, And time for the reverse-sweep! Quite a daring and often needless shot if you ask me, but the batsman pulls it off well enough to get two more.  (2) 
1.5  Sohail Tanvir to Bismillah Khan, Placed nicely into the gap. Two runs.  (2) 
1.6  Sohail Tanvir to Bismillah Khan, No shot offered.  (0)

11.1  Saeed Ajmal to Tamim Iqbal, Good length delivery on the stumps, the batsman just leans forward and drives it past mid-on for four more. Lovely shot.  (4)

12.1  Samuel Badree to Mohammad Hafeez, That one deviated sharply of the pitch, the batsman had no chance of playing that. Dot ball.  (0) 
12.2  Samuel Badree to Mohammad Hafeez, Good ball, he goes for the cut, it's too close to cut, he's inside edged it, and it misses the stumps by a whisker! The keeper tidies up and there is no run. Phew that was close.   (0) 
12.3  Samuel Badree to Mohammad Hafeez, Hammered down the ground. Two more.  (2) 
12.4  Samuel Badree to Mohammad Hafeez, And time for the reverse-sweep! Quite a daring and often needless shot if you ask me, but the batsman pulls it off well enough to get two more.  (2) 
12.5  Samuel Badree to Mohammad Hafeez, Very well bowled.  (0) 
12.6  Samuel Badree to Mohammad Hafeez, Good short ball, the batsman is caught off guard and top edges it high in the air! The keeper is after it...he's runs hard...and the ball lands just after him! He drops a glove and hurls the ball in to keep the batsman to just a single.  (1)

14.1  Samuel Badree to Tamim Iqbal, He walks across his stumps trying to paddle it away, but misses it. And the keeper's appealing! There was a sound as the ball passed the batsman, and the umpire is unmoved. Replays show it was off the pad. Good call.  (0) 
14.2  Samuel Badree to Tamim Iqbal, Dabbed into the gap for a quick single. The captain decides to shift the field around a little bit.  (1)

16.2  Samuel Badree to Tamim Iqbal, Slapped away through the offside for a glorious boundary! Lovely shot. The captain's fuming now and removes a man from third slip to cover that region.  (4)

Eoin Morgan, take a bow! 37 off 7 balls with 6 sixes! Simply, outstanding! His innings and his 4 sixes in the last over of the innings snatch victory from the jaws of defeat for Peshawar Zalmi. Not to take credit away from Tamim Iqbal and Mohammad Hafeez's opening-wicket stand. Steven Finn will be gutted to have conceded 56 runs off his first 4.0 overs of the league.
