What can be better for true cricket fans than a Pakistan vs India final. It was the clash of the titans with Pakistan coming out as the victors of this contest.

In this episode, we talk about the thriller of a game - that was the final of the PSL8. The perfect way to end another explosive season of the PSL.
The final was played between Multan Sultans and the Lahore Qalandars - with Lahore opting to bat first, again relying on their bowling strength to help them defend the total. There were some handy innings throughout but the final blow was dealt by Shaheen Shah Afridi, accumulating a quick fire 45 at the end to propel his team to a very good fighting total.
Multan were put in to chase. Things were going well for them but they kept losing wickets at regular intervals. At the end, the game went on to the final over with the momentum shifting back and forth between the Sultans and the Qalandars. Multan needed 13 off the last over, where Zaman Khan was given the big responsibility of bowling the final over. And he showed class by defending the total given to him. Sultans tried their level best, but in the end, just couldn't cross the finishing line, falling short by just one run.
π for the Sultans. And π for the Qalandars, who won their 2nd consecutive PSL trophy.
That's all from this season of the podcast, covering the PSL8. We will be back with more Pakistan cricket content in more episodes of the podcast. Stay tuned βοΈ -

In this episode of the podcast, we talk about the final match of the women's exhibition series between the Amazons and the Superwomen.
It was a thriller with the Amazons setting a target of 219 for the Superwomen to chase. The Superwomen were also up to the challenge and were on par at many points in the game until the unfortunate run-out of Iram Javed - at which point they started losing wickets. A brilliant century by Chamari Athapaththu was not enough to get the Superwomen across the line and they ended up getting 185 in their allocated overs.
The Amazons reigned supreme and bagged the match as well as the series, 2-1. Danni Wyatt was again the player of the match for this one for her contributions with the bat as well as the ball.

In this episode, we share our thoughts on the biggest rivalry of the PSL. This time, the Karachi Kings came out on top, securing their first win in the season so far. Lahore Qalandars - while having a better bowling attack - looked to be a bit out of touch.

We will be keeping our eyes on the 2nd game now with Lahore all geared up to take their sweet revenge.
