01:00Yeah, lower Kalandas, they've had a hot and cold tournament up till now, but they've got some men in form.
01:05Fahar Zaman with the bat.
01:07Of course, you can't rule out Shaheen Shah, Freedy the captain.
01:10Terrell is now playing as an all-rounder.
01:12He's a regular baller.
01:13And what kind of form he's in, the finisher for the Kalandas.
01:18Islamabad United, they haven't done anything wrong yet.
01:21Monroe is looking good.
01:22Anything they touch, it goes, turns to goal.
01:25He is one wicket behind to be the top wicket-taker, Jason.
01:28And they have the luxury of making whatever changes they want in their 11.
01:32Sahib Zada Farhan also in great touch.
01:35This is the points table at the moment.
01:37Islamabad, as I mentioned, unbeaten.
01:39Lahore Kalandas will climb up if they can win this one and probably take Quetta's place at the end of the evening.
01:44At the toss, Islamabad United called it right and they decided that they will feel first
01:52because they're happy chasing out there and they've got a very ferocious batting line-up.
01:58Lahore Kalandas, they are unchanged from that last outing.
02:01Shaheen Shah, Freedy leading then and they've got all the ingredients to make it through and beat Islamabad if they can.
02:08Sikandar Raza will be key down the order even if they bat first or they're chasing.
02:12He looks to be in a very good nick.
02:15And then they've got the faster bowlers along with Haris Rauf and good quality spin is also available to them.
02:23Here we have the Islamabad United.
02:25They've rung in a few changes after having a week off here.
02:28They've brought in Azam Khan, they've brought in Salman Ali Agar, Ben Dorshis, Nassim Shah and Hanein Shah
02:35to really bolster that bowling line-up who have been doing an extremely good job thus far in the tournament.
02:40They want to continue that good momentum that they've had in these first five games on.
02:45So Farhan at the top of the order has been in incredible form for them as well,
02:49getting them off to a great start.
02:50And Andreas Haal is coming off a great 80-not out in the last game as well.
02:53I'm Nassim Shah to Fakhar.
03:20That's going to be a good match-up.
03:21First ball.
03:26And it's been played on the hips, nicely worked away with a boundary.
03:31Lower calendars are on their way.
03:35Brace out for the whole calendars here.
03:37Nassim Shah just straying in line early.
03:39A little bit of swing, starting at two straight.
03:41And that's easy pickings for someone like Fakhar Zaman.
03:49That's a beautiful shot.
03:50Through the line.
03:52Driven away and drivable.
03:54And he cashes it out.
03:58Down the wick and he skied it.
04:00Now it's about who will take that catch.
04:04Nassim Shah was Hunayn who came in from third to actually come under it.
04:11It was very, very high.
04:12That's well done.
04:16He saw fine legs up in the circle, so he takes that opportunity.
04:24Nicely done.
04:25Surely he gets some confidence out of that shot.
04:2826 for Nolos.
04:29Oh, he's got it right from the middle.
04:37That's a very Fakhar Zaman-like shot.
04:39Yeah, great shot there from Fakhar Zaman.
04:44Oh, he's picked that slower one.
04:46Maybe getting a touch predictable there, Nassim Shah.
04:50You give yourself a little bit of time,
04:52and he survived those first couple of overs from Nassim Shah.
04:57Now he's not going to spare him.
04:59Oh, they have to run quick.
05:04He hits.
05:05He hits.
05:06Will they have a look?
05:08Very, very close.
05:10I reckon maybe curtains.
05:13Standby.
05:15Keep rolling.
05:17The ball is well short of the crease.
05:20I'm in the base group.
05:22I'm ready to make my decision for the bisque.
05:25Yeah, you should see the dreaded three letters.
05:28Excellent fielding display.
05:29Bend washes with his favorite hand and gets bullseye.
05:33And Naeem gets runs.
05:3525 of them.
05:36Lahore lose first for 50.
05:38How's that for a strike?
05:44He's making them pay, Fakhar Zaman.
05:50A swipe into the leg side.
05:54Quick to pick that length up.
05:56A fielder, Heather Ali, drags it into the boundary.
06:00Felt maybe he was slow off the blocks.
06:06He doesn't.
06:08Abdullah Shafiq decides to take him on.
06:11So, Hunan's first goes for 13.
06:13Eight done.
06:14Lahore 75 for one.
06:15Throws that wide.
06:21Throws that full.
06:23Not the best of deliveries.
06:25And a good reward for Fakhar who throws the bat at it.
06:28Yeah, launches himself.
06:33He does that so well.
06:35Down on one knee and he picks that up with power.
06:38He certainly fancies the chances here against the left arm spin.
06:40Fakhar Zaman.
06:44Oh, chance, chance, chance gone.
06:46That surely looks out.
06:47Despite the fumble, that looks out.
06:54Keep rolling.
06:56Keeper take the ball behind the stands.
06:58I'm satisfied.
06:59There's ball in the hand and wicket is broken.
07:02Better well off the street.
07:03I'm ready to make my decision for the base lane.
07:05Yeah, should be that.
07:07Fakhar Zaman goes.
07:08Only the second time in HBL PSL he's been stomped.
07:11That's a big wicket.
07:1297 for two.
07:14Lahore Calunders in the 11th over.
07:18He's got some bat.
07:20I'll earn him a boundary for sure.
07:23It's a very quick off field this.
07:27Certainly is.
07:27I'm not was in just straying on his line there.
07:31Catch it!
07:32Chance again.
07:33They say catch it.
07:34And he does.
07:36So they don't lose much.
07:39You straight away.
07:40Didn't get the connection.
07:40Gug himself room.
07:42Hits through the line.
07:43Just comes off the inside half.
07:46The Jubilee safe hands down on the long off boundary there.
07:49Haider Ali makes no mistake with that one.
07:52Lahore.
07:52108 for three.
07:53Oh, he's got hold of that.
07:58How good was that on the reverse?
08:01Sam Billings.
08:03Yeah, very well executed shot there.
08:05Once again, this time to the left of the fielder really puts the baller off when you start hitting that cleanly on the reverse.
08:15Yeah, but fires that one a little bit quicker there.
08:21Again, this time it's higher.
08:23He hasn't got hold of it.
08:24He'll have to go.
08:25Oh, he's popped it out.
08:26Oh, my word.
08:28My word.
08:29Sahib Zadha Faran.
08:31How did he drop that?
08:32Slow delivery.
08:39Set that nicely for four.
08:41Very good shot.
08:42Nicely weighted by Mitchell.
08:44He's a good player.
08:44Oh, and he's got such a good bat swing as well.
08:51Has it gone far enough?
08:52I think it has.
08:55Normally a very fine fielder.
08:57I don't know what's going wrong with the Islamabad United field.
09:01This is a third one going down.
09:02This one can say that it is a six, but he just totally misjudged it.
09:12Short delivery.
09:13He's got hold of that as well.
09:15Has it gone far enough?
09:16Yeah, six more.
09:18There's a terrific start from Mitchell.
09:24Glorious now.
09:25He's picked that up superbly.
09:26Might have picked out the fielder.
09:28Has done so.
09:30And Ali's the man that's taken the catch.
09:32Scooting around that boundary line.
09:33That's a wicket they needed.
09:35He picked it up.
09:37Probably not right out of the meet, but with a flatter trajectory, the ball traveling.
09:41You want to make sure the momentum doesn't take you outside.
09:45And in that aspect, they've done well.
09:47Darryl Mitchell goes back for 28.
09:53A well-made 28.
09:55Lower one four, five for four.
09:56He's picked that up superbly, and he's hit that brilliantly.
10:02That's gone for six.
10:03That is a perfect pickup shot.
10:05It was Heather Ali under that, and he could just see it sailing over his head.
10:13He's picked that up, and that's gone for six.
10:20That's clean.
10:21That's a very good shot.
10:23Had to reach for that the last minute, did Sam Billings.
10:25He's a serious talent.
10:27Perfect for this time.
10:30Beautiful scoop.
10:32Six more.
10:33Back-to-back sexes.
10:34Top stuff from Billings.
10:36Top Billings.
10:37Solid shot over the top, and four runs.
10:44That's a great way to start the over.
10:50Slower, short delivery.
10:52Good muscling.
10:53That's a really good shot from Sikandaraza.
10:56He made a lot out of not much.
10:58Really well played.
10:59He's picked that one up nicely.
11:04A very high circling underneath it, and six more.
11:10Top stuff from Sikandaraza.
11:12This terrific cameo.
11:17Bang.
11:18That's gone as well.
11:21Wow, brilliant.
11:23Absolutely brilliant.
11:24Yeah, that was in the slot.
11:26He didn't have to do much.
11:28He didn't have to generate the pace.
11:30The pace was provided to him.
11:34So he can get underneath it just like that.
11:36Just like that.
11:38That is outstanding work.
11:40Magnificent blow.
11:41200 up as well.
11:47Friendly full toss, but he says one straight up.
11:50Is it going to be caught?
11:51Oh, my goodness.
11:53Now Az catch it on the second grab.
11:58Slow one, back of the hand.
12:03It's a low full toss that he's not expecting.
12:06One, two.
12:08Yes, I'll hold on.
12:1039 of 17.
12:13They are 209 to 5.
12:14Last ball of the innings.
12:19And he's got underneath that, and he's headed straight to the field at long on.
12:25Salman Aga's taken that catch.
12:26Jason Holden with the light, and he's picked up a couple of wickets right at the end.
12:29But that has been a wonderful exhibition of batting from the Hawke Islanders.
12:36209 they've posted.
12:37As you look back at that batting card, and everyone contributed.
12:44Faka was dropped on four.
12:45Got 44 in the end, so they paid with that for starters.
12:49Naeem 25, off 22, good work.
12:52Shafiq 22, Mitchell 28.
12:54Billings not out 38.
12:55That's a fine knock from Billings, off 17.
12:57And Sikanda Raza outstanding with his 39 also.
13:00Off 17, gets him past that 200 mark.
13:03Naeem Shah bowled well in the beginning, but I was little leaking the runs at the end.
13:09One wicket for Dawesha.
13:10Holden's got two, two for Imad Wasim.
13:14210 is the target.
13:15This is going to be fun to watch the second half of this game.
13:20Slabat's bowlers surely have been put to test.
13:23And how?
13:25First time in the tournament, they've met someone who's locking horns with them.
13:35Sam Billings, Mitchell, and then Sikanda Raza.
13:39It's tough to say is, was it brilliant batting or bad bowling in those last five?
13:48Reverse.
13:49And just over.
13:51Boundary for Islamabad and Farhan.
13:53The only need for that backward point there.
13:57That lovely shot from Farhan to have the first boundary of the innings.
14:00He plays it straight down to Sikanda Raza.
14:07You can't miss him out in the game.
14:08Out goes the first opener and the in-form man, Saibzada Farhan, walks back.
14:17Shaheen goes with the short ball.
14:19Just sort of swivels on that one.
14:20It wasn't really in control of it and straight into the breadbasket of Sikanda Raza.
14:25He's never dropping those ones.
14:27First wicket down for Islamabad.
14:2911 for one.
14:29Nicely done.
14:34Timing on that.
14:36Gets off the mark with that beautiful cut.
14:39And that is just a proper cricket shot there from Salman Aliaga here.
14:43Oh, he's played that over nice and easy.
14:47He was too full and he's picked it up to his advantage.
14:53Beautiful shot there.
14:56Again, same result.
14:58This time a little flatter and a boundary.
15:02Not a lovely shot there from House.
15:04Oh, he's tied that.
15:11He's trying to flick it now.
15:12Is that going to go all the way?
15:14Wow, it does.
15:16For the moment, I thought that's gone more high than distance.
15:20Yeah, lovely piece of timing here.
15:23Salman Aliaga just shuffling across the stumps.
15:30Beautifully played.
15:31That's probably gone for six.
15:34Yep, that is a great shot to start the over.
15:38Tied over so far.
15:41Lost to shape at the last minute, but it's effective enough.
15:43He's strong.
15:45And it's gone for four.
15:46It's a good finish from Andres Hoos.
15:4811 off the over.
15:49Six done.
15:4949 for one.
15:53Had to reach for that.
15:55Sliced it away and it's gone for four.
15:57A couple of bounces.
15:59Brings up the 50.
16:04Picked that up superbly.
16:08That's a fine shot and a terrific way to start the over.
16:11Exactly where I was saying that he likes.
16:16Let's pick that up superbly.
16:17That's a lovely shot for six.
16:20Obrecht's recover.
16:21Superb.
16:22Boat him.
16:25Got him.
16:27Outfoxed him.
16:28Brilliant stuff.
16:29He loves a celebration as well, does Sikandar.
16:31Yeah, a little bit too early.
16:35Salman Ali Aga.
16:37Right at the york length.
16:39Quick.
16:40Seam up.
16:41And he was too late.
16:43Threw the legs.
16:45Magnificent delivery.
16:46Plenty of experience.
16:49Sikandar Raza.
16:50And a big wicket.
16:51Salman Aga.
16:52Gone for 36 now.
16:5380 for two.
16:54That's gone for six.
17:02Down the tunnel.
17:06Ross decides to continue.
17:12Oh.
17:13Is it bad only?
17:14Is it bad only?
17:15Yes.
17:16Aasem Khan.
17:17He's gone upstairs but he's been given out.
17:19Pitching orchard off.
17:26Impacted line.
17:27Wickets on Pires call.
17:28Go to Anfield and Pires.
17:30Paul, stay with Orenel.
17:31Out to see a standby.
17:32Yeah.
17:33All it had to do is clip those thumbs and it did exactly that.
17:37He referred it quickly and he started walking off quickly as well.
17:44Oh, he's chipped it.
17:45He hasn't hit that.
17:46He's just played it straight down.
17:48Oh!
17:49What job well done.
17:51Tom Curran.
17:53They'll probably have a second look for sure.
17:55But for me, that's out.
18:05Keep rolling.
18:06He's taken the catch within the field and went outside and just came back and satisfied.
18:11It's a fake catch.
18:13I'm ready to make my decision for the biscuit.
18:15Yeah, that looks very hard.
18:23Haidr Ali goes for five.
18:25Islamabad.
18:2592 for four.
18:26he's played a straight back at him that's the boundary in his follow-through
18:33Harris I don't know gets out of the way or was in no position to catch that
18:36comes down the wicket takes the chance and he clears that all just one bounce
18:46Shain Chafrid is in the circle so he can afford to take that risk go on the sound
18:57of ball on the stops who rattles through he gets goes has been out there for a
19:03while now Harris Ralph was just targeting those times is inching closer and closer
19:10it skids through beautifully in the sec quite a quite a way in the end and then
19:15it's middle and leg stump five down now Islam about 104 for five in the 13th
19:24ooh that's a nice shot and hole is walking doesn't wait for the umpire two and two
19:32they all count and that's 300 wickets for Harris Ralph and t20 cricket their hair
19:40will has flown through of back of the length and all the holder can do is just
19:44get a wee feather off the glove and they are ecstatic the Lahore Calandas in
19:50trouble now Islamabad 104 for six
19:53flat bats that straight to the fielder shine sharp really takes the catch and the
20:03frustration comes to an end Imad Wasim is number seven from Islamabad United
20:09little bit of a baseball swing that one Shaheen didn't have to move did he straight at him chest height and he makes no mistake
20:17Islamabad now with all sorts of trouble at 108 for seven
20:21oh crack but only crack to do the fielder another sub obliges and guess what the magic man produce another magic moment
20:35anything they're hitting going straight into the hands of the fielder and how good
20:42Sikander Raza has been tonight with the bat with the ball
20:46now he's picked up what two wickets and been gone for one it's one or nine for eight
20:56and he'll take that it doesn't matter where they come off the flying edge of the middle of the bat is for
21:05he's gonna have a swing well that story will have to wait Risha takes the catch and guess who
21:17he's gonna run away and he spun away with three now losing his grip on that losing control totally shut
21:29up Rashad Hussain moving in swiftly and taking the catch Shadab Khan goes for 13 there's no
21:39but now 114 for nine another catching opportunity one bounce into the fence all while he's out there
21:55the both brothers in fact they're just gonna keep swinging surely he's gonna go again oh does that go
22:02down third's throat that goes down third's throat and that'll close the night out with a comprehensive
22:09win by the home side it is the Lahore Cullanders who've jumped to number two on that point stable
22:15a massive victory tonight and led extremely well by the skipper winning by 88 runs that is a big margin
22:23and just about everyone has performed and the way that they batted right at the end was magnificent
22:28Haris Ralf getting four wickets in the end so kind of Raza getting three magnificent work really good
22:35work they'll sit in that change room after this game and think this is a top-notch performance and
22:40they've given their home crowd here something to thoroughly enjoy
22:45they did at the start when Ghos and Salman Ali Aagha held it together at 80 for one but after Salman Ali Aagha lost his wicket to Sikandar Raza it was all one-way traffic after lost the last nine wickets for just 41 runs to be bundled out in 16.5 overs losing this contest by 88 runs
23:12so they take a big hit it doesn't impact them too much because they are sitting pretty with five wins
23:17but it was a demolition job by Haris Rauf his second best figures in the tournament history four for 31
23:24now wickets are the top four Shaheen Asif Afridi and Tom Curran but Sikandar Raza he was the man of the moment and well
23:33he had an outing that he will remember for a very long time that is what the night looked like they were put into
23:39this match up there on the bat the Lahore Kalundas and did well 209 for six courtesy it runs through the order
23:4444 39 38 and 28 Fakhar Raza Billings and Mitchell Raza and Billings the massive partnership 9-2 order the last 5
23:56salamata united in reply 121 all out and not really much to talk about Haris Rauf 4 for 31 and Sikandar Raza
24:03I reckon he'll be talking to Sikandar later on as well.
24:07Lahore Kalandas back-to-back victories at home.
24:11That's what it looks like.
24:12They needed them to hold off to 131 or less and they've done just that.
24:17And that's why they jumped to 2 on run rate.
24:19Overtaking the Gladiators who are also a team in form.
24:23And the 1-2-3 looking pretty.
24:25Islamabad United take a hit but on points are up.
24:29Lahore Kalandas will jump.
24:31Jump up the order to 2.
24:33Remember four teams qualify for the playoff.
