The head coach of Hyderabad Kingsmen in PSL 11, Jason Gillespie, said that it is a matter of embarrassment for him that the team was all out for 80 runs.

Hyderabad Kingsmen head coach Jason Gillespie, while talking to the media, said that we need to learn a lesson from the defeat against Islamabad United, and for the next challenge we will have to do planning again.

He said that we cannot make any excuse of not understanding the conditions; United really outclassed us today.

The Kingsmen head coach said that he has worked with the Pakistan team and there are excellent fast bowlers in the PSL and other players are also very talented.

Jason Gillespie said that Glenn Maxwell and Saim Ayub work very hard in net sessions; both are quality cricketers. Saim is a good option for us in bowling along with batting.

He said that he knows Saim Ayub is not scoring runs, but he is working hard.

It is clear that Islamabad United defeated Hyderabad Kingsmen by 8 wickets and qualified for the playoffs, while the Kingsmen team was bowled out for 80 runs.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has approved the attendance of spectators for the final of Pakistan Super League (PSL) 11.

According to Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Mohsin Naqvi, he had formally requested the prime minister to allow fans into the stadium, especially for the final match.

Although the prime minister was initially in favour of permitting public attendance, he had raised concerns over ongoing nationwide austerity measures, including efforts to reduce fuel consumption and control overall expenditures.

These considerations had previously created uncertainty regarding crowd attendance at major sporting events.
