Shaheen Afridi’s Lahore Qalandars Suffer 5th Consecutive Defeat in PSL 2024
Shaheen Afridi: Shaheen Shah Afridi’s tenure as Pakistan’s T20 captain seems to be plagued by misfortune, extending even to the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2024. Despite being defending champions, his team Lahore Qalandars faced their 5th consecutive defeat in PSL 2024, falling to Babar Azam’s Peshawar Zalmi.
Babar Azam Shines as Lahore Qalandars Face Defeat
In a match held in Lahore on February 25th, the spotlight was on Babar Azam rather than the home team Lahore Qalandars. Despite a remarkable century by Rassie van der Dussen, Lahore Qalandars lost the match by 8 runs against Peshawar Zalmi, captained by Babar Azam.
Syam Ayub’s Stellar Performance
Syam Ayub, stepping in for Babar Azam in the Pakistan T20 team, proved instrumental in Peshawar Zalmi’s victory with a stunning knock of 88 runs. Despite Shaheen Shah Afridi’s efforts, Ayub’s performance led Peshawar to a formidable total of 211 runs.
Rassie van der Dussen’s Century Goes in Vain
Rassie van der Dussen’s phenomenal century for Lahore Qalandars, scoring an unbeaten 104 runs off 52 balls, wasn’t enough to secure victory. Despite his exceptional performance, Lahore Qalandars fell short of the target by 8 runs, marking their 5th consecutive defeat under Shaheen Afridi’s captaincy.
Fate Continues to Elude Shaheen Afridi
Despite the valiant efforts of key players, including van der Dussen’s heroic century, Shaheen Afridi’s luck seems to have taken a downturn. Lahore Qalandars’ loss against Peshawar Zalmi marks their 9th defeat in the last 10 matches under Afridi’s leadership.
Syam Ayub Named Player of the Match
Syam Ayub’s outstanding performance earned him the Player of the Match award, solidifying Peshawar Zalmi’s victory under Babar Azam’s captaincy.
