Player Of The Match
Shaheen Afridi to Iftikhar Ahmed. Full toss, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on for 1 run, shy attempt by Mitchell, fielded by Billings. Multan Sultans have posted a huge total at the end of the first innings. Yasir Khan and Muhammad Rizwan provided an excellent start, with 79 coming off the powerplay to set the tone for the innings. Rizwan fell soon after, but Yasir continued with the standout innings, making 87 off 44 balls. Usman Khan kept the momentum going as a 70 run stand following the openers 89, with Iftikhar Ahmed smashing 40 off 18 at the end. Asif Afridi bowled economically but the rest of the Lahore Qalandars seamers were expensive. Rishad Hossain picked up two wickets. Can Qalandars pull off a huge run chase on this flat pitch, or will Multan Sultans claim their first victory? Stay tuned for the chase.

Multan Sultans emerge victorious for the first time this season, as their huge total proves too much for the Lahore Qalanders, who fall 33 runs short despite a spirited chase.

Sam Billings and Sikandar Raza fought well, Billings with 43 off 23, and Raza unbeaten on 50 off 27, but it was in vain. Yasir Khan has been adjudged the Player of the Match.
