Daryl Mitchell, Player of the Match: Amount of grass didn't make any difference in terms of sideways movement and we tried to build partnerships. 180 was about par, nice to get a platform and partnerships. Abdullah Shafique absorbed pressure and put it back on them. The job of No.4 is to adapt to different conditions. (Applauds Sikandar Raza)

Perhaps the conditions got a bit better for batting in the second innings and the quality of the top and middle-order made the difference between the two sides. I don't think 186 was a subpar total by any means but Multan were unable to put up a disciplined effort towards the end and leaked plenty of boundaries. The two best chasers in modern-day cricket, Raza and Mitchell, were in top form, which compounded their problems. Abdullah played a measured knock and Fakhar provided a brisk start as well. Multan have now been defeated for the fifth time this season and are on the brink of early elimination. Earlier, Rizwan and Ghulam did some fantastic rebuilding work and were superb towards the end, making up for a slightly sluggish middle phase

Omar: "@Saqib, they let go of Ihsanullah, not a surprise tbh. "

Saqib: "multan bowling is letting them down in every match. No spark"

Akif Javed to Sikandar Raza, 1 run, Shorter in length, slanted back at him and he manages to squeeze it behind backward point for a run and gets his team over the line. Master of run-chase, Sikandar Raza made the task look easy, LQ win it at a canter

Akif Javed to Mitchell, OUT, Dragged it back onto the stumps, pace-off shorter delivery right at him, tried to pull that one and instead got it deflected off his midriff to the stumps, doesn't get to hit the winning runs but he has done his job alright

Ubaid Shah to Mitchell, SIX, Oh boy! That left a dent. Shorter on middle and leg, brings his bat down and languidly carted over deep square for a six; made it look ridiculously easy, trademark Mitchell shot

Ubaid Shah to Mitchell, FOUR, Short, wide and flashes a cut past point for a four, that'll calm both of them. Cracking shot, waited for it and timed to perfection, Shah gave too much width on this occasion, costly errors
