Haris Rauf to Sohail Tanvir, SIX, holy moly! Six more! SIX MORE! Sat back in the crease and waited for the ball to get to him, and absolutely nailed the slot to square leg. Multan have set Lahore 170 to win, and that over alone has shifted the momentum drastically! 24 off the final over, remember they only conceded 26 in the previous 5!

Haris Rauf to Sohail Tanvir, FOUR, stand and deliver. That's - not clever - from Rauf. In the slot, and Tanvir set up nicely for it and smashes it to cow corner for four more
Faisal: "Haris Rauf takes wickets but always goes for to many extra runs...he needs to think about his RPO is well"

Haris Rauf to Sohail Tanvir, no run, whacks him on the shoulder at 146.5kph. Some venom behind that, but Sultans already have 16 from this over

Haris Rauf to Sohail Tanvir, SIX, one-handed six over square leg - Tanvir is making up for lost time with lightning speed This is maddening for Lahore, having done all the hard work of the past five overs, they're letting Multan get to where they were aiming anyway
19.2
4
Haris Rauf to Sohail Tanvir, FOUR, that'll do! Thick inside edge races away for four as well, and this is the perfect start to the over for Tanvir. The 150 up for Sultans
19.1
4
Haris Rauf to Sohail Tanvir, FOUR, clobbered down the ground, and that's more like it for Multan. Got plenty of bat on it, and it speeds back down to the boundary
5/26 in the last 5 overs

1
Shaheen Shah Afridi to Sohail Tanvir, 1 run, good-looking cover drive. Decides against two, he would rather have the strike here
Ahsan Butt: "It is all a ploy by LQ. They will win this match only to lose in the playoffs and break their fans' hearts a little harder!"

1
Shaheen Shah Afridi to Imran Khan, 1 run, full toss, sliced to third man. Can Sultans get to 150 at least?
18.4
2
Shaheen Shah Afridi to Imran Khan, 2 runs, that was pretty handy. Full toss that Imran Khan guided rather deftly past third man, who had to put in a dive to stop it going for four. Imran thought he had a boundary there, and consequently only came back for two
18.3
W
Shaheen Shah Afridi to Muzarabani, OUT, that was always on the cards! He throws in that yorker, and with that 6 foot 6 frame of his, it was always going to be a challenge getting the bat down in time. Shaheen strikes once more and the Multan slide continues

Shaheen Shah Afridi to Muzarabani, no run, can't do anything with that one
Ammar Ahmad Kha: "Golden chance for LQ to qualify from here... But what if this could be recap of last 3 matches?"

1
Shaheen Shah Afridi to Sohail Tanvir, 1 run, clattered to long-on, and it gets Muzarabani on strike
Hamid: "Don't worry @Luqman and @Danyal, 4th times a charm as it looks... it was for Kings last night, and its gonna be for Qalandars tonight :p"

Faulkner to Muzarabani, no run, blocked, and that brings to an end a near-perfect over for Qalandars

Faulkner to Imran Tahir, OUT, not this one, though! That went off the leading edge straight to cover-point, and Faulkner strikes again

Faulkner to Imran Tahir, FOUR, he reads the slower ball straightaway. And what placement, too, pierces the gap between short third and backward point, and it scurries away
17.3
W
Faulkner to Khushdil Shah, OUT, and he gets him third time around. Faulkner was toying with Khushdil in that over. Another back of the hand ball, and as Khushdil tried to smear him over cow corner, he nicks off and Ben Dunk completes a smart diving catch. Lahore Qalandars fighting back strongly at the death here
Khushdil Shah c †Dunk b Faulkner 6 (11b 0x4 0x6) SR: 54.54

Faulkner to Khushdil Shah, no run, swing and a miss, but he gets no pace to work with and he's beaten
Luqman: "being a LQ fan, I am already nervous that we might not be able to chase 140" As you well might be! I'd be nervous if they chased half that

Shaheen Shah Afridi to Sohaib Maqsood, OUT, he strikes once more, and that statuesque celebration comes out! Yorker length at full speed, and Maqsood was rushed into his shot, only succeeding in edging it high in the air around mid-off. Tim David completes the simplest of catches - though is anything really ever simple for Qalandars? - and they have a priceless wicket
Sohaib Maqsood c David b Shaheen Shah Afridi 60 (40b 3x4 4x6) SR: 150.00

Burhan: "Danyal, Stuart Broad is not a Batsman :D" Not anymore he's not!
