QG vs IU Match Analysis
Islamabad United
QG vs IU match has some serious issues where they also have to make a plan. This defeat is Islamabad United’s 2nd defeat. We saw the match and understand the reason for this Islamabad United defeat. The batting issue is the most important because there is no need for Shadab Khan and Azam Khan at the 4 or 5 position. They have to send Jordan Cox at number 4. Ales Hales tries to hit in extra cover boundary but does not succeed. The batting lineup of today`s match is not good enough.
They reconsider the best batting lineup and playing XI. Pick the best option to win the next matches. Bowling is good by Islamabad United Especially Hunain Shah, Shadab Khan & Rumman Raees. The biggest of Islamabad captain Shadab Khan is not the complete Hunain Shah spell. Hunain Shah`s bowling is challenging Gladiators batters to score but makes only 1 or 2s. Well, the PSL tournament is open for Islamabad United. Make strong decisions and come back in the next matches.
Quetta Gladiators
The QG vs IU has had some good tournaments so far for Quetta. Quetta Gladiators has 3 successive victories and must march on for qualifiers and finals. Saud Shakeel and Khawaja Nafay is not successful against the Islamabad bowlers. But, Jason Roy and Rilee Rossouw steady the chase. Quetta needs to consider the future of Sarfaraz Ahmed in the team. Sarfaraz has an important batting position and needs a finishing role. Sherfane Rutherford 29 is good enough for Gladiators. But, Muhammad Amir’s 11 runs are very useful in Quetta`s victory.
The bowling has been very excellent for Quetta. Their spinners Abrar Ahmed, Akeal Hosien, and Fast bowler Muhammad Wasim JR lead the bowling unit for Quetta. Also, Muhammad Amir and Muhammad Hasnain have done their job with bowling well. The fielding has been good for Quetta and won the game.
