11.49pm  That is it! Zalmi opened their accounts finally! Time for another match. Lahore Qalandars will take on Karachi Kings on the 24th of this month at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). Join us early for the build up. Till then, goodnight and bye!

11.49pm  Luke Wood, the Player of the Match. He says he just tries to execute his plans. Adds they had more experience in their line up and it paid off.

11.48pm  Babar Azam says they wanted this win. Adds they batted well, they were looking for a score around 180 and they got it. Reckons bowlers bowled well too but they'll hope to do well in the field now. Tells they tried a couple of things today and it worked out.

11.37pm  ...Presentation...

11.36pm  Mohammad Rizwan says they'll learn from this game. Adds they were expecting to chase this down, they gave a few runs in the backend with the ball but should have chased it down. Reckons they change the batting order according to the conditions.

11.35pm  Defending a total which we felt was par, they got Mohammad Rizwan early. Khan and Hendricks then steadied the ship but when it was time to accelerate, Khan fell. Reeza and Malan batted brilliantly and got it down to almost 10 per over needed in the last 7. Salman Irshad and Paul Walter then got rid of the set batters and turned the back into their side’s favor. Multan’s tail wagged though and kept their side in the game. Luke Wood who was the pick of the bowlers, bowled a brilliant second last over which saw Multan needing 22 from the last. Iftikhar Ahmed did revive the hopes, it came down to him from the last two balls but Naveen-ul-Haq held his nerve and helped his side get over the line. A brilliant game and a deserving win for the visitors.

11.32pm  An absolute thriller of a game and it is Peshawar Zalmi who bag their first win beating Multan at their home. Not an easy task, they had to dig in deep but in the end, held their nerve and came out on top.

OUT! Naveen-ul-Haq keeps his nerves! What a win! A length ball, angling on middle, Shahnawaz Dahani tries to pull it but misses and it hits the stumps. Peshawar Zalmi win by 5 runs.
Shahnawaz Dahani b Naveen-ul-Haq 0 (1b 0x4 0x6)

11.29pm  Shahnawaz Dahani comes in and needs a six to win.

OUT! GONE! Peshawar Zalmi are celebrating but the umpire seems to be unmoved by it. They have taken it upstairs. A length ball, outside off, angling in. Iftikhar Ahmed goes for a full blooded hoick across but seems to miss. NO, UltraEdge shows a spike! Huge moment. Another twist in the game.
Iftikhar Ahmed c M Haris b Naveen-ul-Haq 16 (8b 2x4 1x6)
