00:00 PSL is now in the final stages
00:06 Yesterday's match was a disappointment for the gladiators
00:11 It was a very disappointing match
00:13 Omer bin Yusuf scored a very good half century
00:23 But Islamabad United had a chance to win the match
00:30 Islamabad United had almost won the match
00:33 But then they had a chance to win the match
00:37 But then they had a chance to win the match
00:39 Now they are in a position that if they defeat Peshawar Zalmi
00:45 Then we will see who will be the winner
00:51 Before that, we have to stop Babar's Peshawar Zalmi
00:55 Babar's Peshawar Zalmi will show a great performance
00:59 Now we have Surat-e-Hal
01:01 Yesterday's match was a disappointment for Islamabad United
01:07 Quetta was in the finalist position three times
01:11 Let's ask them what happened
01:15 We will talk about the current team
01:22 Shahid Hashmi is with us
01:24 Shahid, which team do you think is the winner?
01:31 Peshawar and Islamabad
01:33 Islamabad is very strong as compared to Peshawar
01:37 What is the position of Peshawar?
01:39 Both teams are very strong
01:42 Zalmi has made a great momentum
01:45 He is defending the target
01:47 He has defended the target six times
01:50 Although his leg spinners are not able to play
01:54 Because of the hamstring injury
01:56 Today it seems that they will play
01:58 Because spinners are getting help in Karachi
02:00 Islamabad United has caught momentum at the right time
02:03 In the beginning, they were struggling
02:05 But they chased the target of 228-229
02:09 Then Quetta gladiators came in the lead
02:13 Both teams have momentum
02:15 It will be a good match
02:16 My favorite team is Peshawar-Zalmi
02:18 My favorite team is Peshawar
02:22 My favorite team is the one who wins
02:24 This is a very good thing
02:26 Let's talk about yesterday's match
02:31 Then we will talk about Peshawar
02:33 We were watching Quetta after a long time
02:39 We were watching that he is a new captain
02:41 He will be very strong under him
02:43 But yesterday, if you take out the innings of Meherbun Yusuf
02:48 Then Quetta is not in a good position
02:50 Yesterday, bowling was not good in the first half
02:52 In the second half, he pulled back the strings
02:55 But overall, he got a big target
02:59 He came to bat
03:00 Then all went out
03:02 What happened with Quetta in this season?
03:04 The pitches in Karachi were not good
03:07 165 was the par score
03:10 And 165 was being defended
03:12 Quetta did a little injustice by giving 174 runs
03:16 The target was a little more than 10-15 runs
03:19 Both spinners, Usman Tariq and Abraham, both didn't go
03:23 Both gave 71 runs in a combined 8 overs
03:25 And took only one wicket
03:27 And because of the runs in the end, 174 was a good defendable total
03:33 And then Quetta did a big mistake
03:35 In the first 5 overs, 5 wickets fell on 16 runs
03:38 The match ended there
03:40 And Umair did a very good batting
03:42 But it was getting more difficult
03:44 Because if someone had given him a 7 in the last 5 overs
03:47 The surprise was that Quetta gladiators called the Sheriffs and Rutherford from West Indies
03:52 And did not give them a match
03:54 Perhaps coach Shane Watson punished them
03:58 That they left the pitch
04:00 Although they took permission from the franchise
04:03 So Quetta gladiators were hurt by not giving them a match
04:06 Because the match they won from Karachi
04:08 After 5 wickets fell, it was because of the Sheriffs and Rutherford
04:13 Obviously, it is everyone's favourite for Peshawar
04:18 But can we expect anything from them?
04:24 So which Peshawar players can turn the tables?
04:30 Except Babar, because Babar will definitely do it
04:33 Most people say Babar Azam vs Islamabad United
04:38 But there are 11 players
04:40 If you play with Arif Yaqoob, his home ground is Leg Spinner
04:44 He took 4 wickets in one over and defeated Islamabad in the last match
04:51 So he is a player like that, apart from Babar Azam
04:54 Islamabad United also has good players
04:56 Islamabad United also has momentum
04:58 P20 match is won by the team that plays well on that particular day
05:03 Particular day, this also matters a lot
05:06 You have given reference to the pitches, there are a lot of comments on it
05:09 Thank you so much Shahid
05:11 And it is important to mention that the matches in Karachi
05:14 There has been a lot of criticism on the pitches and the crowd
05:18 Yes, criticism on the pitches and the crowd
05:20 Let's see if the crowd comes today and in the final or not
