Josh Little to Sikandar Raza. Off cutter back of a length, to leg on the back foot cutting, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep point for 1 run, fielded by Bracewell. 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. All of the Sultans bowlers played their part, as they took regular wickets to prevent the Qalanders building momentum in the face of an ever increasing run-rate, Ubaid Shah the pick with three wickets, whilst Usama Mir took two. 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.
