That was a special innings from the swashbuckling New Zealander, I cannot overstate how amazing an innings this has been from Guptill, on a pitch that was difficult to play shots on against spinners given the ball was gripping the surface and turning - Guptill took his time and then went berserk in the last five overs. I think there is some dew around though, let's see which team will bag their first win of this PSL

Aamer Yamin to Guptill, OUT, Slogged into the sky - straight to long-off - he was looking to bludgeon the ball into the stands as he has done so many times, but he got slightly under it, hands a simple catch to Niazi - who has been a livewire in the field tonight - and Quetta end up with 168 on the board

Brian : "Someone get Guptill some pain relieving spray, his back must be hurting from carrying Quetta"

SalmanKhan: "No one will mention that easy catch of Guptill dropped by Sharjeel in Tye's over and only look at Tye 0-55. Also that misfield which cost another boundary." That was not the easiest of chances but should have been taken at this level

Sami: "Absolute dreadful bowling from tye. So much experience and he Bowles in the same spot he was getting pummled"

Bilal haider: "The mood tye is having right now was exactly mine during the whole Quetta innings before the carnage by the kiwi :DAbsolute sensational stuff from the guptill"

Absaar Ahmad: "Martin Guptill Used 44 Balls To get to his First Fifty, and Used 18 Balls For the Next 50. "

ASIM: "Karachi ... Lost way feel sorry for Imad the captain but i think Karachi coaching staff i didn't like them specially WA so Well-done Guptil "

samran: "GUPTILL = BRUTAL"
