Umar Gul, Quetta Gladiators bowling coach told that they are one pacer short in the middle which dented Quetta’s chance to restrict Peshawar Zalmi on a low total.

Umar said in his post-match talk after Peshawar crushed Quetta by 61 runs, “I will give credit to David Miller who played extremely well throughout and dominated our spinners,”

He added, “In the middle, we were going one pacer short and that is why we could not finish it off well. But if you see our pacers bowled well in the last three overs and early on,”

He further said, “The mistakes which our pacers had made in the previous game I talked to them about those areas and I think they responded well today early in the innings,”

He concluded, “We took a fine start but unfortunately in the middle, our spinners could not live up to the billing and could not deliver the balls which were needed,”

Quetta tasted their sixth defeat from seven games and are now out of the event but according to their bowling coach they would try to address their problems and produce good results in the coming three matches.

Both the teams were defeated in their previous match at Abu Dhabi, However, this time there will be extra pressure on Quetta as they are on the edge of another early elimination from the race.

Last night Quetta was crushed by Islamabad United. Quetta was unlucky in the match and despite having some good names, are now at the bottom of the points table as they have lost their five out of six matches so far, their confidence is down and the Peshawar can take advantage of it.

Even though the batting lineup of Quetta looked strong on paper, but in reality, it disappointed in the game against Islamabad as its main players were disappointed their fans by an early dismiss; Andre Russell on 13 runs, Faf du Plessis on 5 runs, and Sarfaraz Ahmed on 2 runs. As always Quetta bowlers disappointed by their poor bowling and failed to stop runs and took wickets, Naseem Shah gave 19 runs in an over, Khurram Shahzad gave 29 runs in 2 overs, Mohammad Hasnain gave 21 runs in 2 overs, Zahid Mahmood gave 36 runs in 2 overs, and Zahid Mahmood gave 18 runs in 2 overs.

Peshawar on the other hand fell short of chasing 170 in the match against Lahore Qalandars. They’re at the middle position on the points table, with six points after six matches in which they won three matches and loosed three matches.

Peshawar batsman played very well; Shoaib Malik scored 73 runs off 48balls.
Peshawar had won against Quetta in the first leg of PSL in Karachi, which can also give an advantage to Peshawar.

Haider Ali, Shoaib Malik, Sherfane Rutherford, and Imam ul Haq helped Peshawar to chase a target of 199 for the loss of seven wickets, with three balls remaining.

Tim David’s made 64 runs from 36 balls helped Lahore set a competitive 171 run target for the Peshawar Zalmi after their top order was skittled by Peshawar Zalmi’s pace attack.

Tim David and Ben Denunk paired up and built an 81-run partnership to steady the innings for the struggling Lahore side and put them at 106/5 before Ben departed for a crucial 48 runs.

After Ben departure, Rashid Khan and James Faulkner stuck with David to help Lahore rise from 25/4 to 170/8.

Lahore Qalandars batsmen struggled against Peshawar Zalmi’s pace attack and ended up at 42/4 ten overs of their innings.

Skipper Sohail Akhtar and Fakhar Zaman opened the innings for Lahore, while Wahab took it on himself to open the bowling for Peshawar.

Wahab successfully removed the dangerous Fakhar for one from the fifth ball of the match.

Sohail was about to join Fakar in the dugout in the second over but the ball evaded Kamran Akmal and traveled to the boundary to give Lahore the first boundary of the night.

The third over of the innings ended in a maiden after Muhammad Faizan struggled to bat against Wahab. The over added pressure on Sohail who was dismissed by Mohammad Irfan after he guided the ball to Kamran Akmal.

Once Wahab and Irfan ended their spells, Umaid Asif joined the party and took the key wicket of Mohammad Hafeez, he got dismissed for 2 runs after he top-edged the ball towards David Miller at mid-off.

The wickets had helped Peshawar ensure that Lahore ends the powerplay at 18/3.

Once the powerplay ended the Peshawar did not give any room to Lahore and in the next over, Wahab ended the innings of struggling Muhammad Faizan after he took a scintillating catch off Mohammad Imran’s bowling in the seventh over.

After Faizan’s dismissal, Tim David and Ben Denunk tried to consolidate Lahore and helped their team reach 42/4 at the 10th over.
