Karachi: Islamabad United’s Luke Ronchi has said that every game in Karachi has been fantastic and that it has been an absolute pleasure playing here. 

“It has been amazing playing here [Pakistan],” Ronchi said while speaking to Geo. “That’s what it is all about, playing in front of a passionate and noisy crowd and all I can say is that every game has been fantastic so far.”

When asked what his thoughts were seeing the players cut-outs and posters around the city, the 37-year-old New Zealand player said, “I think it’s the whole spectacle of Pakistan Super League (PSL).”

“Everyone enjoys it and when you play in front of a crowd and you see all the placards and posters, it makes you feel really special,” he said.

Responding to a question about another final for United, Ronchi said, if they [Islamabad United] perform well against Peshawar Zalmi in the second eliminator than they have a really good chance of winning.

In response to a question about the young talent in the PSL, the batsman said, “Every team has got some amazing talent. There are a lot of good bowlers especially spin and fast bowlers.”

“It is exciting for Pakistan cricket. There a lot of young guys coming through that will be pushing for a place in the national team,” Ronchi added.
