Khawaja Nafay’s Heroics and Inspirations Shine in Quetta Gladiators’ Historic Win

In a breathtaking display of talent, Khawaja Nafay, a product of Pakistan Cricket Club in Karachi, emerged as the star of PSL 9, steering Quetta Gladiators to a historic triumph against Lahore Qalandars with a dazzling knock of 60*. Nafay, in a post-match press conference, shared insights into his cricketing idols, singling out Babar Azam and Rohit Sharma as his favorite batters.

Having previously participated in the Bangladesh Premier League, Nafay’s spectacular 60* marked a significant milestone, especially considering his previous top score of 6* in T20 cricket.

Akeal Hossain, another standout player for Quetta Gladiators, expressed his elation over defeating the reigning champions in challenging conditions. His impressive figures of 4-0-17-2 played a crucial role in restricting Lahore Qalandars to a score below 200. Hossain, working on enhancing his bowling arsenal, mentioned the incorporation of the ‘carrom ball’ into his repertoire.

Praising the legendary West Indian cricketer Sir Vivian Richards, Akeal emphasized Richards’ philosophy of dominating the opposition, a mindset reflected in Viv’s remarkable strike rate of 90 in one-day cricket during an era where the norm was in the 60s/70s.

The collective efforts of Khawaja Nafay, Akeal Hossain, and the influence of Sir Vivian Richards have added an extra layer of excitement to Quetta Gladiators’ journey in PSL 9, promising more thrilling moments in the tournament.
