Thank you for joining us today. This is Rvel Zahid signing off on behalf of Sudeep Poojar.

"We practised for three days in the nets and planned we won't give away wickets in the powerplay so we can put up a big score. We were able to execute our plans today. We were looking for 160-170 knowing we have the bowling resources to defend but the way Abdullah played, I mean whole credit goes to him because he made it easy for me and when the ball got older, it became easier for me to hit as well. Our team's combination is great so there is not much pressure on us and we bat deep and I try to play my natural game," says Player of the Match Fakhar Zaman

"The way we started, we did well in the first three overs but after that, the batters put us under pressure. We lost it in the first six overs. When you are chasing such a big total, you try to keep the run rate in control. Saim Ayub batted well, he has been in very good form but we need to improve our bowling. We gave away too many runs. If you do not execute your plans well, the batters will keep giving the charge and attack. We need to correct our mistakes as soon as possible," said Peshawar Zalmi captain Babar Azam.

Lahore Qalandars were ruffled early on with the bat but once Fakhar Zaman and Abdullah Shafique started to cut loose, there was no stopping them. Babar Azam kept rotating his bowlers in vain as nobody could provide him with breakthroughs as the partnership blossomed and the home team put up an imposing total of 241. The enthralling batting show from the reigning champions started off the Lahore leg of PSL spectacularly and we knew Peshawar Zalmi would have to bat out of their skins to chase this. They came close to the end but with the pace trio of Shaheen Afridi, who picked up a magnificent fifer, Haris Rauf and Zaman Khan, it was a tough ask keeping up with the asking rate. Fakhar Zaman has been declared player of the match for his spellbinding 96 run-knock that was laced with 10 sixes and three fours

sanyia Mukhtar: "Although PZ lose this match but they bat really well,in second innings scoring 200 is not that easy"

Hamza: "How many blinders are the Lahore players going to take today? Too good!"

kashif Manzoor: "Everybody talking about big guns Shaheen ,Haris and Rashid. But this kid Zaman is beauty too."

Anish: "Why do you play out of form Rajapaksa in place of in form Shanaka who can contribute with ball as well. "
