    0.1 golden start for Lahore! Or is it?! Afridi has pinned him in front playing across the line and is given out but he was hit very very high above the knee roll. Masood calls for DRS. Ball-tracking shows this is a bail-clipper. He remains out. Do not question Aleem Dar! 0/1
    4.6 lovely comeback by Rauf to cap the over with a wicket! Gets his line right on this occasion probing the off/fourth stump channel back of a length. Rizwan looks like he maybe was trying to run this down to third man with a slightly open face but it clips a fine edge through to Dunk. 45/2
    16.3 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 135/5
    7.3 the swipe across the line missed the bat completely and crashed into the pads. Looked close but the umpire was ummoved. Lahore have reviewed. Yep, as I suspected, it's taking leg stump with it, and Rashid has his man! 60/3
    14.3 it was in the slot, and Rossouw swung and missed. Or so I thought, but Aleem Dar's given him out caught behind. Immediate review from Rossouw, whose gobsmacked by that call Well, well, what do you know! Aleem had it right! Even Rossouw didn't know he'd hit it, but Aleem knew from 22 yards across. Sensational umpiring 123/4
    17.3 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 136/6

    17.5 not this one, though! That went off the leading edge straight to cover-point, and Faulkner strikes again 140/7
    18.3 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 141/8

    4.1 Dahani strikes with his first delivery! Banged into the surface and Fakhar tried to leather that over midwicket. Doesn't get on top of the bounce and the top edge makes it a fairly comfortable catch for Rizwan 24/2
    1.5 he's gone! Complete miscue from Dunk, with the leading edge ballooning up tamely to Johnson Charles at short cover. Perfect start for the Sultans 8/1
    5.4 taken! That is a soft, soft dismissal. Wasn't the best delivery, really. Short and wide, there to be put away. Instead, Hafeez sends it straight down backward point's throat, and Lahore's woes deepen 34/3
    10.1 he's got Salman, and Lahore are teetering on the brink of disaster now Tried to use his pace and lob him over the keeper, but only managed a faint glove on it, which Rizwan took comfortably 52/5
    9.3 might not survive this, though. Came down the pitch to smash him down the ground. Beaten by the turn and Rizwan takes the bails off - has he got back in time though? He has not, that's good work from Rizwan. LQ lose their fourth 48/4
    12.5 the last ball doesn't matter for Imran! Fist pumping and screaming like a maniac in delight! Peach of a ball back of a length on fourth stump angled in, David has a flat-footed swipe across the line and misses. The top of off stump is pegged backward and the bails go flying! Picturesque dismissal from start to finish with Imran's celebrations the cherry on top of the cake. 83/6
    13.2 another wicket after a failed DRS review! Bounced out to deep midwicket. And of all the guys to take it, the elder statesman Imran Tahir shows age is nothing but a number sprinting in 20 yards from the rope to take a tumbling catch! Faulker was hustled on the pull shot and the ball was in the air for a long time off a top edge. There was a man running out from the inner ring and it looked like a collision could be on the cards but he pulled out late to allow Tahir a chance to stretch out with a dive and the leggie pouched it in theatrical fashion. 85/7
    13.6 bouncer once again, and a spectacular catch once again, this time by Rizwan running backwards 20 yards toward deep fine leg! Rashid top-edges a pull while backing away from leg stump, Muzarabani was coming in from the rope but Rizwan was determined to snatch this all the way. The Zimbabwean lets the captain take center stage with a magnificent effort covering the distance to latch onto this swirler. 85/8
    15.1 Dhani wraps up the match! Full and wide outside off, wild heave aiming for midwicket results in a top edge swirling over point but it is taken safely on the ring with a tumbling effort falling backward. 89/10
    14.3 Tahir has a magnet on his chest in the field today! Length ball on sixth stump, slashed to deep third man where Tahir settles under this 10 yards in from the rope and crouches to pouch this on his knees. 87/9
