00:00We'll be back.

00:30Hi, everybody, and a warm welcome to the National Bank Stadium in Karachi.

00:51The Kings against Islamabad United today.

00:55Two teams in form.

00:56Islamabad seemingly above the altar, really, playing fantastic cricket at the moment.

01:02Karachi Kings, two good performances, one less good that cost them dear, but a lot of

01:08good players on view today, not least those two captains, David Warner and Shadab Khan.

01:13Maximum points then for United, four points for the Kings along with the Hall calendars.

01:20The players arrive at the ground, always a bit of nerves around, but they play an awful

01:28lot of cricket.

01:29There's a good cricketer.

01:30That man often wins a match with his own battle ball.

01:33And I think the general feel in the tournament is of energy.

01:39I know the crowds here at the National Bank Stadium haven't been as good as other venues.

01:48The coin hung in the air, the call was dead right, and he chose to bowl first.

01:53Karachi, with a win in the last match, we'll be hoping that they continue in the same fashion.

02:03They've just made a single change.

02:05Saad, big, the emerging under-19 captain of Pakistan comes in, but it's above the top three.

02:12James wins.

02:13It's an excellent touch.

02:14Remember, he's got 170.

02:15David Warner had a bit of a start, but we're hoping the top order comes to party.

02:21Well, the men in red, the defending champions, have shown great consistency with bat and ball.

02:27There's a bowling unit.

02:28They've taken 30 wickets already, and it's the tall West Indian has taken nine wickets thus

02:34far.

02:35They've got two changes to their squad, and Pendoshas comes in, and Mohamed Nawaz.

02:413, 2, 1.

03:01Lift off.

03:03Ben Dorshuis against Tim Cypher.

03:07We're away.

03:08There's a swish, if ever I saw one.

03:14Gentlemen, come on, give us a moment, JP, on the...

03:17Oh.

03:18Hang on.

03:19I think it was just the rush of wind as that bat swished, surely.

03:25Asm Khan isn't keen, Saadab, he's not keen.

03:29Oh, got him.

03:30What about that?

03:31Whoa.

03:32Nazim Shah.

03:33And such a big fish to catch.

03:34Well, David Warner spoke at the toss about anticipation of the Australian soil, and sees the back of him.

03:51Nazim Shah finds the good length, a little bit of movement back into him, and clips the top of off-stump.

03:59Great start in the end for Karachi.

04:01It's 5 for 1.

04:03And he runs, a boundary, but not off the bat.

04:12Yeah, first boundary for the Karachi kings.

04:18got it got him he loves it another full ball doing the damage oh Jason holder

04:27you're on a run you saw him sort of hone in the back of the length on this

04:31occasion in the last ball of the over attempts to go full and straight at the

04:34stumps and success man of the moment for the Karachi Kings two out of the three

04:40games has been the man of the match Karachi now 22 for two good shooting a

04:51boundary sad bag thank you yeah first boundary off the innings off the bat

05:03don't know that he said that nice and that's for that was savage cypher's had

05:08a go at that beautifully shot delivery he's not very quick he's a leader we can

05:14take it sure but he picked up the shot delivery perfectly in front of square for

05:20the boundary very well hit that that's a terrific drive-thru extra cover before

05:29that's screamed away for a boundary 41 for two slice that away he's found a gap

05:40gonna pick up a boundary good stuff from Saad Baig second game in PSL for Saad Baig he

05:46played one game for Karachi King last year got out of a beautiful delivery just

05:51started out some opened the face of the bat just to get that elevation and

05:56obviously to go over the point fielder that's not very well hits that's sliced

06:04away another way catch it up gone into the attack and he picks up a wicket

06:07straight away wickets are tumbling at exactly the right time at the moment for

06:11Islamabad United will Saad Baig had the same idea trying to go after the leg

06:19spinner something in the way that he's played his footwork particularly on the

06:24front foot picked up on it's actually cost him his wicket they're very straight

06:29front leg when he's looking to drive he was up and out of that one far too quickly

06:34he goes for 20 from 17 Karachi slip further in the trouble 61 for 3 and takes him on

06:43shouts off catch it just over just over the fielder on the inner circle this is

06:50excellent from Shadab just luring the batter in to take him on taken taken all too

07:03easy funky dance moves as well he's got a bright smile because he's picked up one

07:07him on yeah the struggle continues with some site but unfortunately just couldn't

07:12get the timing in the settings trying to go straight over Imad's head doesn't quite

07:17get the elevation and a handy catch those are never easy they come back quite

07:24quickly now you see the frustration mud was him he does a fantastic job he's 37

07:33balls voice that he did some cypher garage 71 for 4 and hence why they've lost shape

07:41while I'm playing shots will that be the first boundary in six overs eventually

07:49eventually from the tall West India and the ball creep through into the boundary 14

07:56done 81 for 4 5 overs to go now and up goes that finger straight away so that's

08:05another one they are tumbling couldn't pop up when runs required at this stage it's

08:10not easy but they don't want to lose wickets kings are in big trouble here being into

08:1516th over and that's their fifth fifth wicket let's have a look oh yes the

08:19straighter one missed it completely bang on bullseye middle stump

08:26they're fun departs for five garage you came in trouble 89 for five yeah they

08:37want been glove involved there yep straight away walks off he went Kustu Shah

08:41straight away so that's a key batsman gone the same shot back in an attack and

08:46he's picked up another stick what a bowler he's improving every day he's getting

08:51better and better at all stages plenty of fans young fans out there and what a

08:58delivery I think it made quite him really that awkward length for Kustu Shah to

09:04handle really loving what Nassim Shah is doing right now 17 for Kustu Shah 93 for

09:11six

09:13holder again very very good shot the timing got on top of the bounce this

09:21will give him confidence he's so I'm coming chipped it up in the air and now

09:31they're gonna watch him go holder again he can't do anything wrong playing the

09:36right team and using those resources really really well saw him coming down

09:42the pitch I'm at Jamal and banded short just an older comfortable catch wickets

09:48sir falling left right and center Karachi King seven down now after 18 gone now

10:00that's a good connection and that's gone for sex wow that's been a rarity that's the

10:05very first one we've had throughout the innings he can wag a boss for sure delivery

10:12wasn't the best against him he looks for this kind of length when he's in the last

10:18two overs and it was right in a slot so Josh strowed KFC buckets another scholarship good shots second

10:31six tempted Yorker didn't happen no full toss picked up beautifully by a boss for his second

10:40six now that's one high how far is it gone yeah it's gone far enough for six more

10:50this is terrific stuff right at the end the biggest of the Lord third one from

10:56above a boss of 3d he's on 20 just of six deliveries another one into the gap let's

11:03have a look one bounce into the fall brilliant hitting by a boss that is brilliant and it's

11:13a dot ball to finish we think want the wide they're not going to get it no there's no

11:18wide there so that's the end of the innings 128 is where they end up outstanding work from

11:25a boss 24 off 9 deliveries let's have a look and see what happened so far there's the Karachi Kings

11:35after they were asked to bat Seifert 30 off 37 couldn't get going today Tim Seifert is a fine

11:41player but couldn't find the middle of his bat Saad got 20 off 17 Kostil Shah 23 ball 17 and let's

11:49just go down to Abbas right at the end Abbas Afridi was 24 off nine was really good stuff and he was

11:56pretty much responsible for them getting to nearly 130 these bowling figures are really good to watch

12:03this just the two overs that's all Nassim just got a little bit of treatment towards the end two for

12:0929 off his four overs ball brilliantly right at the top and Nassim and holder picked up the two gun

12:15wickets of Warner and also James Vince Vince yeah it was bold and then a mob was great and should

12:24have also terrific as well so really good bowling from Islamabad United right now there's the target

12:30that's what they need Islamabad 129 the ball is doing a bit so the start of this innings is going to

12:36to be seriously important well if you think about the opportunity to dominate in a power play he's

12:51your man that's a good ball to start off with this is going to test Saibzada who's in good form

12:57of this surface has frustrated Warner one hand off the handle but still will do the job one bounce

13:07boundary first one for Islamabad well we certainly saw this attempt from Tim Seifert in the first

13:12innings and fortune wasn't able to get the timing even though the hand comes off the bat he still

13:17managed to get a big piece of it and for on well he's been in suitable time for yeah this outfield

13:30is quick he's given up and the right choice race away what a good shot from man in form they feel

13:39with the nature of the wicked it's a stroke play wicked it's not necessarily trying to muscle it too

13:44hard he just stands tall doesn't he a lot of foot movement just on the hips there worked away back to

13:59back boundaries yeah he's not learning that's an absolute freebie there so three boundaries in the

14:13over Hassan Ali's been spraying all over and he's got rhythm going in in his batting is poor bowling for

14:25sure looking at the surface but it's just a form of of the individual Saibzada was really making them

14:33ball poorly that's high up but still in the vacant zone probably will go all the way yes it's not

14:46working for Karachi bowlers it felt that is it's not going to carry to the boundary because because

14:53of the height on that but he knew it as he hit it he knew it he middled it those eyes just said it all

15:01watermen chance here chance here big catch taking it beautifully done David Warner kept his eyes on the

15:12ball running backwards he knew this was a big big catch Saibzada Farah change of ends for Hassan Ali and

15:22into the attack into the over and gets the strike what a catch by David Warner certainly favors the Jubilee

15:30safe hands for sure man it for me has to go he goes for 30 slumber that he fall for one oh that's

15:42surprising just over and that's gone for a four was a good delivery now it was unable to stop that in that

15:54that second attempt oh got him got him that one came in sharply and Monroe left the gate open well

16:06he's a wicket-taker had a poor over the first one from the university and change of and work and it

16:13worked for Karachi King giving again that backspin nip back delivery created that angle and also a bit of

16:21swing a bit of seam there was everything good about this delivery and celebration Monroe another one

16:28man in form gone Ali he's gone for four is 38 for two oh yes got all of it that's a very big hit over

16:41the cage and into the people what a strike just a little skip down the pitch ball got in perhaps a

16:50little tighter to him than he might have liked but look at the adjustment the quickness of the hands

16:54and the pureness of the strike he's a very good cricketer this fellow and now he goes down the ground

17:00that's a hell of a shot on the up on this surface that isn't easy terrific counter-attack and an

17:07essential one you can do it quickly let's get it quickly off the surface I didn't think that was

17:19going to go to the boundary but the first bounce was almost as if there was a bit of dew out there

17:23which I don't think there is by the way but it really seemed to skid beautifully placed and timed I

17:36couldn't find the ball I was searching around the park I couldn't see it 62 for two we've got it over

17:46mid on nicely actually that's a pretty good stroke in fairness shuffle of the feet getting nice and near

17:51the ball yeah just thought for a second he hadn't quite got enough of it but what shit should have

18:00here he had no doubt that he just got enough of the middle and looking to go big and this is big this

18:09is beauty this pick up nicely nice and straight but all the way that took the 21 deliveries to pick up

18:20another boundary picked one beautifully here what a shot shut up giving himself a little bit of room

18:31and just spanking it over cover for 613 gone 99 for do so work do I beautifully back on the square then

18:42offside desperate dive not tall enough four runs yeah you got a ball right length but also right pace also

18:51because you go quickly it comes onto the back nicely you can use that base and very nicely played by

18:59Asim Khan yeah him not back that off pole any attack and he's picked up a wickets other Ali Khan you

19:10were right he should have been balling lot earlier picked up a wicket a big wicket in the first sword I

19:16think he was spay playing for a spin or just went with the arm and hit off timber as I'm gone now

19:24later sensible not 31 of 30 deliveries one or three for three round the wicket a son Ali and dealt it

19:35beautifully that's the wrong length and Nawaz is very capable of putting those bad deliveries away

19:43doing the right thing hitting strikes very good connection there's a mine getting underneath the ball

19:50now as it's a really good shot good control didn't try and overheat it

19:59nicely played fine they probably go is probably will go all the way to the boundary another boundary

20:07was nicely played so what do we think guys for example let's swing the toss around and said have

20:14been won by Karachi Kings and they've both do we think that would have been a different story or is

20:18one side playing a lot better than the other I think one side is playing a lot better than the

20:23other in my opinion this is my opinion or just punches it down the ground I mean kind of dismissive

20:31disdainful almost as that flies away off the middle of bat what a good shot dropping the bat down on it late

20:45and it whistles to the boundary stop him from hitting the ball in that sort of area mark Nicholas pointed

20:54out he played it so so late oh what a way to finish that I think shut up is saying well what a joke all that

21:09was I could have hit you for fall yeah I missed the full delivery he tried to play towards third man for

21:19a single but missed the ball middle step gone and shall I be saying what are you on about buddy he almost

21:25would level the score we have six wickets in hand shut up 47 it's now about 128

21:32oh it's the end of the match that is an anti-climax remember there was one we're gonna run those two

21:46balls together the daft one and the killer one and in the end David Warner's face tells you what

21:53you need to know he isn't happy not at all but a thoroughly convincing performance from Islamabad

21:58United which yep we're just to remind ourselves of Fahan making 30 he's in such good touch

22:06Asim Khan I thought he looked pretty good quite nice to see him at the top of the order such a natural

22:12cricketer nothing tonight for Colin Monroe but he's at a good tournament and then shut up Khan with 47

22:17so there you have it a couple for Hasan Ali absolutely the standout in that attack he really

22:22came at them sprinting in as he does hustling away but it just wasn't to be the Karachi Kings night

22:29and they will be concerned as I say let's listen to David Warner in the interview and

22:34let him evaluate the importance of the toss and shut up Khan at the presentation 128 for seven playing

22:42129 for four the victory by six wickets it'll keep them way ahead at the top of the table with a good

22:49net run rate and what's happened really is that Islamabad United have had all their players performing

22:57they're able to swap players in and out knowing that they've got well 15 of them have played so far

23:02and they know that the more of those they have informed the better should they have injuries or losses

23:07of form or whatever so they're handling their their structure extremely well
