[anakwalajinn]

Assalamu Aleikum

If it is to early to make the match thread, can some mods please edit this to the pre match thread?

Sad to see Rams out But we are up for a great final! If the mosquiotototeotieoiteoas let us...

So what do you think? I think will go all the way. Lions have looked a bit weak in some departments...

Hope KD win but not too concerned as long as it is a cracking game like the ones today, what time in the UK will it start?

[Friend786]

I hope the Lions' thinktank know that Shahzaib doesn't like the short ball. He simply can't play it, so I'm expecting a barrage of bouncers at him tomorrow.

[Prince_Pathan]

dolphins gna emerge from the ocean...grab lion by the scruff of the neck and submerging begins...

[Friend786]

it's going to be a cracker!

[Stewie]

Lets go Lions!

couldn't have said it any better. hope lions know how to scuba dive or else they're gonna be...

[Pak_Pace]

This is the match the tournament needed in the final. Should be a great contest.

Lahore might make 300 with the batting lineup they have and the bowling form of Karachi.

Karachi will chase it down though

[*sallu*]

Couldn't have asked for a better match

2 batting giants, 2 arch rivals, whadda match

[Fawad2010]

Its gonna be an awesome match. Karachi, Lahore cricket rivalry has been going on since the beginning.

Its simply about which team's bowling can contain runs. Both teams has explosive batting orders.

Also toss will be important as it will be an evening match. Bowling with dew and mosquitoes is not something a bowler aspires to.

Inspiration

[anakwalajinn]

I am ismelling a first ball duck from

[Stewie]

whoever wins, I just hope its good for Pakistan Cricket. I really liked the performances of Hammad Azam and Raza Hasan in this tournament and I think they are future super stars.

Shahzaib has done so well but I dont think he can cut it at international level. I hope he does but he may need a bit of work.

Sohail Khan also impressed with the ball for Dolphins in the semifinal.

Lions will rely on Yousaf and Junior to provide the steady batting.

It looks like it will be a cracker of a game.

[FastBowler]

Oi match hai kab?

[Sohaib]

Go Dolphins! You can do it!

[UmarAkmals-fan]

^^ inshallah

[Kamranaazam]

The Beast is still hungry Watch out

[Afridirocks]

just want a good and entertaining game

[hashbb]

Tomorrow

Dolphin Steak!

[Free Hit]

Lala is doing what nobody has ever done before, he is going to blast as always. we will rock you loahoris

[insaftak]

Question to ram fans?

I like afridi and I like umar akmal. help a confused brother out.

[farazaidi]

Dolphins are on a rampage

support the winners ie Karachi Dolphins

[Markhor]

Brilliant ! The two most supported teams in Pakistan head to head !

Karachi will edge it,though its Pakistan.Its Karachi and Lahore.Totally unpredictable.

[*sallu*]

Gooooo Lionsssssssssssssssssss

[Sledger]

I'm team Karachi. At least their bowlers are all above board. :Sami

[Desire]

key name is "shahzaib hassan". he has played almost at his best. There is so much intensity in the matches i wonder if he still can lift himself for tommorow's game.

[Atif]

Will be a great match to watch, but i think Karachi will win it. Afridi and Shazaib are both in top form, but if Lions can remove Shahzaib early then who knows what might happen.

[*sallu*]

Shahzaib is due a failure

He will get out early tomorrow, so is Afridi. Hes made 40 plus twice in a row now and plus Lahore have full pace battery.

Afridi and Shahzaib will fail with the bat tomorrow.

Dolphins best chance is Shafiq and Alam, but I still think Lahore will win it

[JellyBro]

godda support the home team

[cricketcrazy]

If Sami didnt crapped ( I'm dreaming haan ) Dolphins have a great chance.

Lala n Hasan will rip through Lahori bowlers.

I'm inviting all of the Karachi fans at PHAJJAIY KAI PAAIY for the celebration after the game, anyone ?

[anakwalajinn]

when is the next t20 domestic cup? I am thinking og going

[BoomBoomCricket]

Biggest domestic match of the decade!? I mean it! Surely? From a fans point of view at least?

Thriller potentially. Promises to be a cracking game.

Should be interesting to see what happens and who performs

Certainly the crowd will be in full tune and right behind the locals (Lahore)
Karachi have the better leader/captain

I personally am sitting on the fence but predict a Lahore win

[UmarAkmals-fan]

[Black Zero]

KD stronger this time.

Well seeing how wer just oer half way through the first year of the decade thats very possibly the case haha just messing man ;) your right tho! A big big game for Pakistan domestic cricket!! The 2 giant cities of Pakistan meet in the final!! and tahts coming from someone whos born and is from Islamabad but supports Karach & Isb is my second team. comes first ;)

Cant wait for this game!!

Should be a beastly affair!!!

Dolphins are gonna change these lions into kittens!!

[pakcricketfan]

The two strongest teams are going to be in action against one another. Should be a good match, with Karachi Dolphins of course winning it! (InshALLAH)

[cricketcrazy]

Where is Aamer sohail now who thinks playing banks is better for cricket then cities?

[blinding light]

Lions roar <3

[farsiddiqui]

Actually, I think he said during the commentary yesterday when Afridi was batting against the Lahore Eagels, that people support players and not cities, and that's why they are cheering for Afridi against their home team. He said this is a vote of support for the department teams.

Idiotic logic, I know.

[farsiddiqui]

If Sami can somehow keep his economy rate in single digits, Dolphins will have the edge.

He is not getting any money from bank thats why , he want another team for a bank so he can get a admin job once again.

going by the 'enemy of my enemy is my friend' school of thought than it should be Lahore. Dolphins beat the Rams so cant have Dolphins win it all now?

the other school of thought is that if Karachi beat the Rams, than Dolphins should win it all just so you feel the Rams were defeated by none other than the tournament champs.

your pick?

[Afridi_Fan]

My boys want to play in Champions League next year.

[Gollum]

Sami is due a good game. KD all the way!! Go Dolphins!

[pakcricketfan]

KD bowlers and fielders will have to raise their game.

[saeed-sohail]

LL all the way and Yousaf to lift the trophy.This will make life very uncomfortable for some ppers who had predicted yousaf will prove liability as captain.

He is regardless of tomorrows outcome

Right.

[Newton_fan]

If Lions win the Toss put Dolphins to bat. Because Dolphins can chase very high targets.

[UmarAkmals-fan]

MODs can u ban all the Dolphin fans plz ..they r like the indian ..always pumped up and defending the so called "beast" who plays one good innings per year lol

[pakcricketfan]

Alhamdolillah, they can give high targets too.

Thank You for making it even more harder for me. I am tempted to go with the first option but will wait for another 10 hours to get all the anger after our loss out of my system to make a decision.

[srh]

^Its easy. Go with the team which has the Beast.

[dhump]

ahhh I knew where to click before I even look at this thread.

Lahories how does it feel to be second best team after dolphins

[pakcricketfan]

First of all, this thread/poll is about domestic cricket, so international performance doesn't count.

Secondly, KD fans should actually get the "Spirit of Cricket Award".

[Alam_dar]

It will be interesting game tomorrow.

The KD team seems to be having disadvantage while LL team has 4 Fast Bowlers. They all go for short balls to Shahzaib. Also Afridi normally hits sixes against spinners.

Therefore LL Bowlers slightly win the race against KD bowlers.

In batting, KD slightly ahead of LL at moment.

Hope to have great game tomorrow.

Unbelievable how easily people forgetting/not mentioning Fawad's contribution.

That kid played a major hand in this victory.

I'll probably end up going to this match tomorrow, Have to get there early though. Free entry means a whole lot of people show up.

[SOSami]

I'm going Dolphins. If not for Sami then surely the legendary Afridi.

Umer akmal is young, you'll have plenty of time to support him in future.

[Maula Jutt]

lol did you finally get to enter the stadium at all today? The last time I checked the match thread, you were still waiting to get inside the stadium.
