5.09pm An innings set up by the opening partnership, which had reached 135 before Vince and Siddiq were parted. Vince reached 84, Siddiq 53, and though he went for some runs, it was Lamichhane's three wickets that helped to bring Qalanders backinto the game. Join us in a few minutes for the chase.

Haris Rauf to Mohammad Irfan (5), FOUR, full, smeared down the ground, mid off dives over it, long on dives over it, and it's four. De Villiers was at mid off, and to be fair the ball was past him before he could even dive. Multan Sultans reach 200 for the first time

Haris Rauf to Christian, OUT, great follow up! Rauf fires in a yorker that Christian does well just to keep out. He loses sight of the ball, wandering out in pursuit of a single, but Rauf charges through his follow through, picks it up, and hurls down the stumps. He also offers the departing Christian quite the send-off, but the Australian's response is a belly laugh of note
