Not relevant but any one following the T20 tournament in Pak?

I am really enjoying the domestic T20 cup at the moment....Karachi is being given a hard time by the Rams and Stallions got kicked out after 5 years of dominance. Hoping for a Karachi v Lahore...

surprisingly some pretty decent batting on display I know international cricket brings different pressures but I could spot atleast 10-12 batsman who should be ahaead of Farhat's and Faisal's just goes to show how much contacts count in Pakistan:(

Indeed....Shahzaib had a ton and then a 71 today...which was good to see.....Babar Naeem batted well today....Nasir Jamshaid showed signs of good form....i just don't get the point of picking a team before the tournament....if the players knew that the performance in this tournament would matter to selectors it would make that much more competitive as players will fight harder....we need it at this hour because of no int'l cricket...

2nd Semi Final was amazing...i wonder if highlights are available somewhere... what a mammoth total Karachi chased down...

Needless to say, supporting Karachi for the Final...Afridi and Razzaq having a go at each other would be good to watch...

not gonna happen PCB has a brilliant policy nowdays what ever makes sense and is helpful to Pakistan go and do the complete opposite.
So true. I am hoping they kick Butt soon (pun intended) :)........

Lets all make it a dua in our daily 5 time prayer.....maybe one of us will have it answered and it will spell the end of Butt

International Debutant
I know this sounds dumb but why isn't Butt gone by now? Somebody has to do something even with his major power at hand.
