00:09Oh, my God.
00:55Right, we are here at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi.
00:58It's Goethe Gladiators versus the Pindys, the new boys.
01:03It was Mahmoud Erzvan who won the toss and elected to bowl.
01:14Here we go then.
01:17Spin straight away.
01:21He plays it with a straight bat.
01:23He's a lovely player against spin bowling.
01:24South Shakil, natural, you know, he's got this little sweep and the heavy sweep, the tap around the corner.
01:33He listens to you and it's just about the exit of him.
01:39On the bounce to long off fielder.
01:42But anyway, the idea is right.
01:46Yeah, that's a beautiful line across the stumps and big shot over cover.
01:54That is some strike for four.
01:57Mahmoud Amir coming on to bowl.
02:00And is slapped over the infield for not exactly a boundary.
02:06But good intentions from Sal Chigili.
02:11Yeah, beautifully timed.
02:14Big chase for the deep fielder.
02:16That's a good stop.
02:21Scoops it over Rezvan.
02:24And the ball will trickle down to four.
02:29A bowl in, went across the line and will.
02:32Let's hit the middle stump.
02:35Lynch delivery going across the line and paying the price.
02:39Whether this just slightly sits down clever.
02:42So it took a bit of pace off.
02:43Top of those bails again.
02:46Harper tries to pull a length that is literally too full.
02:51And his first wicket, Sears, he deserved that.
02:55Harper goes for eight.
02:57And the gladiators, 22 for one.
02:59The way he runs in, he hits the crease hard.
03:03It's a beautiful shot though.
03:05And just slightly over pitch Rammys.
03:07Something we saw you do quite often in your career.
03:10Straight past the bowler.
03:16Sliding on, sliding on.
03:17That's the point I tried to make in the pitch report actually.
03:21Hit the top of the stumps.
03:23Lovely option, lovely shot.
03:25That is a lot of experience in that shot.
03:27Because he knows he wants to play with as straight as bad as possible.
03:32Goes again, finds the gap and finds the ball.
03:35Out of the boundary.
03:35Excellent batting.
03:36Just a little bit of width that's created a bit more.
03:39Because of the movement of the crease.
03:49Good fielding.
03:50They'll just add a little bit of pressure.
03:51Now then, has to be.
03:53Ooh, gets back in time just.
03:57Can't be out.
03:58Can't be out.
03:58Unless it's a switch hit.
03:59And I don't think it is.
04:01It's a reverse sweep.
04:02He pitches outside.
04:04Surely, surely you know that Mohamed Rizwan.
04:07It's, you can't ask him.
04:09You can't ask the umpire.
04:10You've got to make the decision.
04:13Just keep rolling.
04:14There is a gap between bat and ball.
04:18Satisfied.
04:19No bat and ball.
04:20Go for ball-tracking and win.
04:22Original decision not out.
04:24Pitching outside leg.
04:26Saiket, stay with your original decision.
04:28You're on screen.
04:29Please signal.
04:30Saiket, please signal.
04:31You're on screen.
04:31It's a really strange decision by Mohamed Rizwan.
04:35He obviously thinks it's a switch hit.
04:37But you can tell even with that replay.
04:39He hasn't, hasn't moved his hands.
04:41And I think now he's been told that.
04:44Feet and overs so far.
04:46But it gets fast.
04:47Asif Afridi will run away for a boundary.
04:50The first one in four overs.
04:53Take it back to a couple of nights ago.
04:55When they played on this pitch.
04:58That is good.
04:59That is better from Riley Russo.
05:02Use of feet gets to the pitch of the ball.
05:04And a much needed boundary for the team.
05:08And for him as well.
05:11Well that's all he needs.
05:12He's a dangerous player.
05:13That's all he needs.
05:14Just one shot to get him into a bit of form.
05:17Back to back boundaries.
05:19Finishes off the tenth over.
05:20The 70th for one.
05:24Reverse sweep.
05:25Doesn't get there.
05:26Mohamed Amir just couldn't get it in his hands.
05:31Now can they get two?
05:33Has he hit that perfectly to get two?
05:35He's going.
05:35That is really good from Riley Russo.
05:39Good between the two batters.
05:42And pace off.
05:44He just stays a little bit deeper.
05:45Good fielding.
05:46Should just be one.
05:47Should just be one.
05:48Takes him on.
05:50Gets there.
05:51Good running.
05:52Disappointed.
05:52Good.
05:54Oh the googly.
05:56And a beaten all ends up.
05:58The keeper as well.
06:00And it's a welcome boundary for the gladiators.
06:05Nicely swept.
06:06And you'll certainly look for two.
06:08Maybe even four.
06:09And a good bit of fielding on the boundary.
06:12But might be in vain.
06:17He did all the work to get around.
06:19And unfortunately just hits it back on himself.
06:23And that's where the problem comes in.
06:25Yeah.
06:26He's touching the rope once the ball rolls back onto his hand.
06:33Shot.
06:34That's a beautiful shot.
06:37Absolute control there.
06:39Riley Russo came down the wicket.
06:41We saw him take this option in the previous over of Daryl Mitchell.
06:46Without any success.
06:47But gets the length of this occasion.
06:50Doesn't try and over hit it.
06:56That should be a boundary again.
06:58Decided to go after Daryl Mitchell.
07:01Because that's an option there.
07:02That's available.
07:03They can go after him.
07:04And that is his 11th HBL PSL 50.
07:09Yeah.
07:10Muchly needed.
07:11There's been a lot of talk about Riley Russo.
07:13And the impact he can have.
07:15Particularly in the middle phase of the game.
07:16When he gets going.
07:17And he's certainly doing so here.
07:21With an offer.
07:22And at no point does he try and keep it on the ground.
07:25He goes Ariel.
07:32Who's missed it.
07:33And how did that miss the stops?
07:39It's in the air.
07:40Should be out.
07:42And it is.
07:43Billings right there.
07:43Just have to move.
07:44A little bit to his left.
07:45And the Buster gets his first wicket.
07:49And the partnership's broken.
07:54Yeah.
07:54Timely.
07:56Timely.
07:57For the Raul Pindies.
07:58It was a partnership that was forming.
08:01And Riley Russo had his butt between.
08:04The butt between his teeth.
08:05But it's a well played innings.
08:07Nevertheless.
08:09Certainly for him.
08:1053 of 42.
08:12Quetta.
08:12109 for two.
08:13Particularly in the national tournament.
08:15Just between.
08:15Just before PSL.
08:16And there we go.
08:17It's up in the air.
08:20And successful.
08:22Hasan Nawaz.
08:22He gets his innings off.
08:24For the maximum.
08:27Oh.
08:28That's gone up.
08:30And.
08:30Probably over as well.
08:32Back to back sixes.
08:34Hasan Nawaz.
08:35Cashing.
08:36Mubassira.
08:40Well.
08:42That comes to an end.
08:44He's played that anchor all.
08:46But unfortunately.
08:47We see the back of him.
08:49Captain goes.
08:51Here it is.
08:53Sears gets his second.
08:55And that probably.
08:56Would work for them.
08:57He's done his job.
08:58The captain.
08:58He wanted to play the anchor.
09:00If he did.
09:01Now it's the time for the power hitters to come in.
09:04So.
09:05Check.
09:05He goes for.
09:0642.
09:071.
09:072.
09:083.
09:084.
09:083.
09:10Shot.
09:11I mean.
09:12With a straight bat.
09:13Doesn't get the distance.
09:14I'll take some catching.
09:16Billings.
09:16Oh.
09:18Just got messed up in the end.
09:20Took the boot.
09:22But yeah.
09:23That was in the air.
09:24For a long.
09:24Long time.
09:25It's got the wickets.
09:27It's up in the air.
09:28Yet again.
09:28Did he get all of it?
09:29And he certainly did.
09:31Hasan Nawaz.
09:32Is.
09:33Getting his third maximum.
09:35And he's certainly getting.
09:37Some momentum.
09:38For the gladiators.
09:39It's 16.
09:40Gone now.
09:411.
09:4134.
09:423.
09:44That's top edge.
09:45Straight up in the air.
09:46Three men.
09:47Converging.
09:48One settles.
09:49Usman Khwaja.
09:50Takes it.
09:51Now the.
09:52Timely strike here.
09:53For the.
09:54Raul Pindis.
09:57There you can see.
09:58Went for the Yorkie.
09:59Didn't quite get it.
10:00But he did enough.
10:01With it.
10:11Pumped up.
10:11Because he knows.
10:12He has a really.
10:13Important role.
10:14To play here.
10:15It's just beginning.
10:16To fall now.
10:17138 for four.
10:19Catches.
10:20Catches.
10:21The call.
10:21Will be away.
10:22From the feeler.
10:24Out.
10:25Out.
10:26Out.
10:27Out.
10:27One.
10:27Was calling.
10:28For this.
10:28For a while.
10:31There's.
10:32Wipe out.
10:32In the middle.
10:33Batchman.
10:34Bowler.
10:34Out.
10:35And I don't.
10:37Terms of.
10:38The run out.
10:38I think.
10:39We'll have a look.
10:39Very close.
10:40That.
10:40Prior to.
10:41Director.
10:41We have a review.
10:42For run out.
10:42At the.
10:43Ballers.
10:43And.
10:43Show me.
10:44The side.
10:44On angle.
10:44Please.
10:50Off.
10:52I'm ready.
10:52To make my decision.
10:53For the big screen.
10:57Yari.
10:59Brilliant.
11:00Top strike.
11:01And.
11:02This is very good.
11:03Also.
11:04Hassan Nawaz.
11:04Picks up.
11:04Another six.
11:05It's so.
11:06So good.
11:06Not gonna be easy.
11:07Swinging it.
11:08Leg side.
11:08Look.
11:08Look at his leg.
11:09Front leg.
11:09There goes.
11:10Way outside.
11:10Leg stump.
11:11And he can access.
11:12Down the ground.
11:13That is so smart.
11:14On this surface.
11:15What's the front leg.
11:16There.
11:16And that is so good.
11:20This time.
11:21Into the leg side.
11:21Once again.
11:22Elevation.
11:23Distance.
11:24Placement.
11:24This is fantastic stuff.
11:27Look at his body weight.
11:28He's back.
11:28He knows.
11:29He's waiting for the short ball.
11:30It's marginally short.
11:31That's such intelligent batting.
11:35He's come out with all guns blazing.
11:38Eleven deliveries.
11:40He's gone to score 35 with five sixes.
11:42Have a look at his strike rate.
11:44It's more than 300.
11:48That's straight.
11:49Very straight.
11:50He called it even before.
11:51Cygert raises his finger.
11:53Amir picks up his second.
11:56Yeah.
11:56Now move forward.
12:03Yeah.
12:03There's a gap between.
12:04Ball and bat.
12:05On the left hand side.
12:06Can you go for the ball tracking.
12:07And ready please.
12:12In line.
12:13Impact in line.
12:14Wicket sitting.
12:15Stay with your original decision.
12:16Second.
12:17And just making sure.
12:18The technology is used correctly.
12:19On field decision.
12:20Excellent.
12:21Delivery from Amir.
12:22Excellent.
12:23And that's another wicket.
12:25Bevan Jacobs has to walk back for three.
12:27Quetta gladiators.
12:28156 for five.
12:34He's done well Jahandad Khan to get his bat down in time.
12:38Oh.
12:38Brilliant.
12:38In terms of all the Quetta gladiators.
12:41Good strike this as well.
12:42Pick up a boundary off the missed field.
12:47Gets a hold of that.
12:49Sounded very, very good.
12:50Good.
12:51And the returns also excellent.
12:54Again.
12:54Mohammed Amir is just trying to mix it up.
12:56This time he does go into the surface.
12:58Just holds enough.
13:05Just too short.
13:06Noaz is trying to get down to the strikers end.
13:13Brilliant.
13:14Absolutely brilliant.
13:16Yasir Khan with a spectacular catch.
13:18And you never know how many runs he might have saved.
13:22Ben Sears just kind of does what he should do really.
13:25On this surface.
13:26Into the pitch.
13:27Taking the pace out of it.
13:29Excellent catch coming forward.
13:30We've got a really good game on here.
13:32Because I think Quetta will feel they're not far off a pass score.
13:35They've got a couple of mystery spinners.
13:37It's gonna take some chasing down.
13:39So.
13:40They're edging towards a decent score.
13:42That is a fantastic innings.
13:43It really is.
13:4439 from 16.
13:45170 for 6.
13:48Well that might be the case.
13:51Monstrous hit once again.
13:53And they keep clawing.
13:54This time Jahandad picks up another.
13:56What can they finish with?
13:59Oh just away from Rizwan.
14:01They will finish with another 4.
14:03They will finish with 14 of the last.
14:07Which means in their set of 20 overs.
14:10I reckon Quetta Gladiators will be very happy with 182 on the board.
14:13Right then.
14:14The Rawalpindi's looking for their first win in the HBL PSL 11.
14:18And they require 183 at 9.15 runs and over.
14:23In their set of 20 overs.
14:26Usman Khwaja returns to the HBL PSL after 5 years.
14:30Returns in new colours.
14:32And returns as a new batting pair for the Rawalpindi's.
14:36Here we go.
14:39Edge then taken.
14:40What a dream start here from Jahandad.
14:43The Quetta Gladiators glittering away.
14:48Taising the drive from Mohamed Rizwan.
14:51There would be much easier slip catches.
14:54That O'Reilly Rousseau would take.
14:56And the skipper is ecstatic.
14:58The perfect start for Quetta Gladiators.
15:01Not for one.
15:07Under edge.
15:09Inside edge.
15:09Away from the left of that wicket keeper.
15:15Oh shape.
15:16Hint of movement.
15:17Exaggerated.
15:21That packs a punch.
15:23Yasser Khan packs a punch.
15:26Great shape.
15:27And great hit for six.
15:29But the next one is in the slot.
15:31He's hit that on the up.
15:33That is a really good strike.
15:35That is a sting strike.
15:37And it goes all the way for the maximum.
15:40One good one.
15:42Just over.
15:44Just over.
15:45Just over.
15:45Just opens up that bad face.
15:46And gets it enough.
15:47And away from the fielders.
15:53That's a touch straighter.
15:56Picked up nicely.
15:57Very nice this.
15:59Making a statement here Yasser Khan.
16:04Picked up really nicely.
16:05That's a clean strike.
16:07Usman Khawaja will pick up his first six.
16:12Go on bended knee.
16:15Usman Khawaja and go on downtown.
16:19Not getting much purchase just yet.
16:23Content.
16:24Send in your reel for the match.
16:26Oh that's gonna be gone.
16:29Sold down the river.
16:30I reckon himself.
16:31He's straight to the fielder.
16:33And he's gone.
16:35It was a good shot.
16:38And I think he just admired the shot.
16:40Got the run on.
16:42But it literally went straight to the fielder.
16:48And what a throw.
16:49Look at these swings.
16:50Not only Khalil Ahmed swinging it.
16:54Hassan Nawaz has a little bit of a curveball of his own.
16:56Sucker wicket down.
16:5727 for two.
16:59He wants to go wide Yorker.
17:00Stay away from the arc.
17:02Oh.
17:03How close was that?
17:08Beauty.
17:09Absolute beauty.
17:10It's been a decent start for the gladiators.
17:13They're on Mitchell as decided it's time.
17:16What a shot down the ground.
17:18Yeah.
17:19It's an option that he really enjoys.
17:22It's a jazz 5D super six.
17:25Doesn't mind hitting from the crease.
17:27He backs his power.
17:29And executes well.
17:33Got to be strong haven't you JP.
17:35Hit like this.
17:37Now then chipped over.
17:40One bounce of four.
17:41Good this from Daryl Mitchell.
17:43Strength.
17:46It's just been really good intent from Daryl Mitchell.
17:49And again look at this.
17:50It's great.
17:51Down the ground twice.
17:52And then his sweet shot.
17:53You talked about that.
17:58Up in the air.
18:00It's a chance.
18:01And taken.
18:03And they get the breakthrough.
18:06Abrar has been potent.
18:09Absolutely brilliant.
18:10We can carry on from that.
18:12Just went with that wide line.
18:15Gets it off the toe of the bat.
18:19Kawajin Nafe with a simple catch.
18:21And it's the end of the evening.
18:24For Yasir Khan.
18:26Gone for 22.
18:27They're in a bit of trouble.
18:2845 for three.
18:32Be a single to finish a quick one.
18:34Brings up the 50.
18:35In the run chase.
18:37And ends the seventh over.
18:38They're 50 for three.
18:44Oh.
18:46Decent length again.
18:48And followed him this time.
18:50Bit painful.
18:52Eight gone.
18:5354 for three.
18:58It's a smash that's gone for six.
19:01Absolutely nailed it.
19:03That's a very good shot.
19:04And I think it was the attempted lick spinner.
19:09That's a pretty decent shot.
19:12Almost taking out which way it's going to turn.
19:14It was full enough.
19:22Beautifully timed into the gap for four.
19:23That's good batting.
19:29It's all about creating the gaps.
19:31With that rake on the up.
19:34Makes room.
19:35Finds the fielder.
19:36At deep point.
19:38And the running is decent.
19:39More than decent.
19:40It was a weak throw.
19:42Hold it!
19:44Hold it!
19:45Hold it!
19:46Hold it!
19:47Hold it!
19:49We all wait in anticipation.
19:52I thought I might have heard something actually on out.
19:55That's Mike.
19:57Yeah?
20:01Up and gone.
20:03Caught at point.
20:05Well taken at point.
20:07Usman Tariq picks up a wicket.
20:09And in the end couldn't get control and on top of the bounce.
20:12It's what you're looking for if you're a left-hander.
20:15And in the end he's just reaching for it.
20:18Somehow it stays in.
20:20All fine there.
20:21Just been building a little bit of pressure.
20:22That run rate's been on the up.
20:24It's just under 12 now.
20:26And they've just built enough pressure.
20:28Good moments here.
20:30And they're just grabbing control of the game for now.
20:35Hazel goes for 20.
20:36Nearly run a ball.
20:3777 for four.
20:38Sam Billings is a new comer at the non-striker's end.
20:42Kasha Bharti has been driven.
20:43And well fielded at long off.
20:47He's a good feeler.
20:49Hasan Nawaz.
20:53And well taken.
20:54Brilliant catch.
20:55Improvisation not working.
20:57Kasha Bharti.
20:58Playing after a gap of almost seven years.
21:01Picks up a wicket.
21:03Nine years in faith.
21:07Khalil was a fielder.
21:09Anticipated it well.
21:10These are difficult takes.
21:11In the ring.
21:13Tumbling over.
21:14But not losing the grip on the ball.
21:16And it's Bharti with a light.
21:17Last smile.
21:20Well the partnership has been broken.
21:22It was a young partnership.
21:23Sam Billings.
21:25Goes early for one.
21:2782 for five.
21:31And what a catch.
21:32What a catch.
21:34What a catch.
21:35Of his own bowling south Shaquille.
21:38Ravel Pindy's going down.
21:40The skipper felt left out.
21:42He stepped into the dance.
21:43Into the attack.
21:45And straight into the action.
21:49The ball well caught.
21:51Look at his celebration.
21:52Daryl Mitchell.
21:53He's gone for 30.
21:5482 for six.
21:58A catch.
21:59Well straight away.
22:00Chance again.
22:01Gone again.
22:02That's last.
22:04Ten balls.
22:05Five runs.
22:05And four wickets.
22:08A gift of a wicket for him.
22:10Field was in place.
22:11At deep mid wicket.
22:14Decent catch by Khawaja Nafay.
22:16And they are in control of the game.
22:19And on their way to two more points.
22:21The Gladiators.
22:22Not looking good for Ravel Pindy's.
22:23He's gone first ball for a globe.
22:26It's 82 for seven.
22:28On a hat-trick.
22:31Cut away it runs here.
22:33Maybe four.
22:35Good shot there.
22:36Nafay had to cover a lot of ground.
22:38To his left.
22:39There are a lot of your achievements.
22:41Already at such a small age.
22:45I was playing one time.
22:47So I didn't realize that
22:49this is a talent for running.
22:52Last two over.
22:54Too short.
22:55And Saar that no problems.
22:57Putting that away.
23:07Well there goes number eight.
23:12Looking to score the points.
23:13Yeah.
23:14It's a half tracker.
23:15Move aside.
23:16Just try to.
23:17Hit it out the park.
23:19Pace on.
23:22Your hand had with a kit.
23:23Simple catch.
23:25Well Pindy's are in trouble.
23:27Eight down.
23:30Gone for six.
23:32There are 104 for eight.
23:37And he's cleared that by a mile.
23:40That's a proper connection there.
23:42Against Bangladesh.
23:44And he's making a name for himself.
23:50And again.
23:52He's taking on the left arm spinner.
23:55Kashif Bhatti.
23:55Going on.
23:56Bended knee.
23:58Clearing for the arms.
23:59To swing through.
24:01And what a connection.
24:02A good sound as well.
24:04His second spell.
24:08Easy as you like.
24:09Easy.
24:10Yeah.
24:10Easy as you like.
24:11Just deceived him.
24:12Slow ball into the pitch.
24:13Job done.
24:15He had all the time in the world really.
24:17Threw the shot.
24:18And sort of last second.
24:20Just tried to help it over his way.
24:22Over third man.
24:24And just catches the toe end.
24:26Yeah.
24:27It's been that kind of night for Quetta.
24:29A much improved performance.
24:31Confidence growing in the camp.
24:34Good hand by Saad Mashoud.
24:48Good hand.
24:48Good hand.
24:56Don't get run out.
24:57Why are you kidding me?
24:58I think he's got in.
24:59I hope he's got in.
25:02He hasn't.
25:03You're up.
25:03Well he really should have tried to get in.
25:06And he gave up there really.
25:08I mean it was a brilliant bit of fielding.
25:09He knew he had to hit the slumps.
25:10He did.
25:12Be mighty pleased with their performance.
25:15All round performance.
25:16Back and with ball.
25:17It's they that have won this by 61 runs.
25:20That is a really big win.
25:23A really big margin.
25:25And they are now two wins from their five games.
25:28And Pindy's I'm afraid are five from five.
