Thanks for your company and feedback throughout this game. We'll be back for the next match tomorrow (KK vs IU). For now, it's goodnight from me, Rvel Zahid, and our scoring master Thilak Rama
Abdul Samad, Player of the Match: There were expectation from me and I had been playing domestic cricket for some time. Stuck to my natural game. We had to score 200-plus runs. There was grip and the pitch was on the slow side but glad the execution went well
What a performance from Peshawar Zalmi and a complete contrast from Multan, who had an awful day! It was clear from the onset that the target would be tough to chase and Multan collapsed like a house of cards in their attempt. Even though it was a lop-sided affair, there were plenty of entertaining knocks. That spell from Ali Raza was a treat to watch! Earlier, the onslaught from Haris and TKC gave their innings a solid start. Both played brilliantly despite the early loss of openers and then the lower middle-order teed off in style. Raza deserves all the praise for his breathtaking spell and Yaqoob kept the pressure up from the other end as well. Peshawar have got their first two points in this season and Multan are still winless
