- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR13.4 Farhan has holed out! Short pitched ball wide outside off, plays the square cut and slices it aerially over backward point, did not get enough elevation to clear the fences, Talat comes forward and completes the catch with ease. An incredible innings has come to an end, loud applause from the crowd as Farhan heads back to the dressing room. Double strike for Joseph! 160/31.2 Short of a length ball down the leg-side, tickles off the bat and sets off for a couple of runs, the outfield fielder fumbles with the throw and the batters commit for the extra run, chance of a run out at the striker's end, massive appeal and the square leg umpire sends it upstairs. TKC put up an incredible effort, receiving the throw at the striker's end and slapping it backward through his legs, causing the bails to light up and Gous is short of his ground! 9/113.1 Joseph gets the breakthrough! Harmless back of a length ball on the leg stump, off-cutter delivery, Munro bends down and tries to sweep it over short fine leg, only managed to find the leading edge of the bat, straightforward catch for Haris sprinting forward 153/216.1 Azam Khan failed to put the full-toss away, caught at deep mid wicket! Starts the over with a juicy full-toss delivery, knee-height, it was there for the big shot but Azam Khan somehow managed to heave it straight into the hands of Saim Ayub at the cow corner area near the ropes 188/418.1 Length ball outside the off stump, Salman goes big at it and miscued the inside-out shot, drills it low to extra cover inside the circle, TKC shifted to his left and dove in to take the catch, unsure whether it carried. Umpires send it upstairs for confirmation, and replays reveal that TKC got it cleanly, just barely, with his pinky fingers wrapped around the ball. 215/5Extras13 (lb 1, nb 2, w 10)TOTAL243/5 (20 Overs, RR: 12.15)Fall of wickets: 1-9 (Andries Gous, 1.2 ov), 2-153 (Colin Munro, 13.1 ov), 3-160 (Sahibzada Farhan, 13.4 ov), 4-188 (Azam Khan, 16.1 ov), 5-215 (Salman Agha, 18.1 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.5 Slower delivery does the trick! Slower bouncer delivery on the stumps, Saim Ayub goes big at it, did not time it well, only managed to struck the top edge to deep backward square leg, regulation catch for Saad Masood near the boundary ropes 26/31.1 Edged and taken! Back of a length ball angling away around the fourth stump line, held on the track, Babar plays the back-foot punch shot with no commitment, gap between bat-pad, thick outside edge and Holder takes a brilliant low catch diving to his right side at the first slip position. Dwarshuis gets the big wicket off his very first ball in the PSL! 4/12.2 Length ball on the stumps, nips back in at the stumps, moves across and plays with the full swing of the bat, failed to connect and hits the thigh pads in front of the stumps, loud appeal and the umpire is not interested. Shadab opts for the review. Ultra Edge confirmed flat line as the ball passes the bat, three reds and hitting the middle stump, the crowd erupt in joy, decision reversed and Mitch Owen has to depart. 16/216.4 A tad fuller and quicker delivery on the stumps, Haris goes after it with the big heave shot, this time only managed to struck it straight and flat to long on, Nawaz makes no mistake near the ropes, Haris misses out on a well deserved century today 136/98.1 A stunning catch at long on! Quicker fuller length on middle-leg, TKC attempts to heave it over the on-side, did not get enough power or elevation, struck it straight and flat to long on, Farhan runs forward and slides on to make a fantastic low catch diving forward. 67/410.6 Soft dismissal!

Fuller length in the slot, widish line outside off, shovels it away over mid-off, failed to place it wide of the long off fielder, substitute fielder Nawaz sprints to his right side and completes the catch! 106/613.3 Catching practice for the United fielders! Generously flighted ball on the stumps, dances down the track and whacks it away with the straight bat to long on, Nawaz comes around and completes his third catch of the nigh 109/715.3 That's one of the wildest reverse sweep attempt I have seen in my life, to be honest. Back of a length ball on middle-off, shuffles across and tries to play the reverse sweep shot, only managed to throw his bat at it in an awkard fashion, failed to connect and crashed onto the off stump 130/818.2 Cleaned him up! Short of a length ball angling in back at the stumps from around the wicket, Mohammad Ali attempts to defend off the back foot, inside edged and crashed onto the stumps 141/10Extras9 (b 1, lb 3, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL141 all out (18.2 Overs, RR: 7.69)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Babar Azam, 1.1 ov), 2-16 (Mitchell Owen, 2.2 ov), 3-26 (Saim Ayub, 3.5 ov), 4-67 (Tom Kohler-Cadmore, 8.1 ov), 5-91 (Hussain Talat, 10.6 ov), 6-106 (George Linde, 12.5 ov), 7-109 (Alzarri Joseph, 13.3 ov), 8-130 (Sufiyan Muqeem, 15.3 ov), 9-136 (Mohammad Haris, 16.4 ov), 10-141 (Mohammad Ali, 18.2 ov)
