00:30Hello and welcome, it's match 12 of the HBL PSL and temperatures have been soaring all over
00:54Pakistan and things are certainly beginning to sizzle here in the competition, none more so
00:59than these two teams have faced off in two finals, Kalander's coming out on top, Mortan Sultans
01:05have returned home where they are hoping to impress this crowd. The toss was won by Mohamed
01:13Rizwan who decided very confidently it must say to bat first, Shaheen Sharifidi didn't look
01:19too perturbed at having lost it.
01:21Yeah, Mortan Sultans, Yashis Shah to come in for Shea Hope and Josh Little as well, left arm quick.
01:31The bowling department at the back end has been a real issue for them but they need to score runs
01:36as well and so they'll be hoping that Ashton Turner, Michael Bracewell, Iftikhar Ahmed will be able to
01:43really go hard in that middle of back end.
01:45Hello, Kalander's just turned from their in-form side, Fakar has been in the runs,
01:54they've got a bowling attack, a lot of people will envy Haris Rauf, Zaman Khan, Asif Afridi,
01:59Rashad the leg spinner and obviously Shaheen Shah, Afridi himself. The only problem is the opening
02:06partnership, otherwise they seem very settled.
02:12Match officials today, Chris Brown and Rashid Riaz. Hassan Raza is upstairs doing his duty on the
02:19television. The win over Karachi back on the 15th, which is the last time that Kalander's played.
02:25Right, we're ready to go.
02:39He doesn't get away with it first ball, but.
02:43Shane Chaffrey, the team on top.
02:46Oh, it did swing, but it started two straight.
02:50And Rizwan is off.
02:55That has been thrown, that has been lobbed out of the ground.
03:02Wonderful timing from Yasir Shaheen, around the wicket, hasn't worked.
03:09It goes again, two straight and just clipped beautifully.
03:14For a guy who's coming in, playing his first game of the HBL PSL.
03:18Goes inside out, over cover.
03:25Didn't quite get to the pitch of it, but no matter, it's gone away for four.
03:29Well, it is Yasir Khan who delivers the punch, and boy, has that gone a long way.
03:43Doesn't need to look any further.
03:46One heck of a strike, isn't it?
03:47That one's gone as well.
03:53That went like a rocket.
03:55For a second, Shaheen might have thought he was in the game, but it flew over and past him.
04:05Four more, go fetch that as well.
04:08He's putting on a show here.
04:10How good is that?
04:15That is absolutely stunning from the right-hander.
04:22Oh, that is humongous!
04:25That is a giant killer.
04:32Above that one right now, because it's a length delivery.
04:36Just listen to this.
04:37He's straight out of the middle of the bat, 94 meters.
04:43Just walk out there for five minutes to get that automatically.
04:46Oh, that's another great six.
04:50In the slot, and that's gone all the way.
04:53Yasir has played a great knock here.
04:57Gets to a 50 of just 28 balls.
04:59What a great inclusion.
05:02Absolutely wonderful innings.
05:04And he appears to be a serious talent in T20 cricket.
05:11Oh, Bolin around his legs.
05:13Probably hit the pad or part of the bat.
05:16I'm not too sure.
05:17The replay will tell us the entire picture, but I guess the run of play.
05:21This over so far, that one dragged on 87, 94, 80.
05:29And I like that from the spinners, just to change it up now and again.
05:32Rizwan gone for 32 and Motan 89 for one.
05:42Into the gap and whistles away from the deep fielder.
05:46Oh, and he's growing.
05:52This is massive.
05:53Full toss and hit for a 90 meter plus six again.
05:59Great timing and what a find is turning out to be for Motan Sultans.
06:05Nearly hit one of our cars as well.
06:07Slower delivery and just over.
06:14One bounce, four.
06:22Into the pitch.
06:25And it goes.
06:27Absolutely goes.
06:28He bent his back this time.
06:36Coming wide at the crease for Osman Khan gave himself room as well.
06:45Another one gone.
06:50A familiar result this.
06:54Ballers need to react.
06:55Try and pitch the ball up to him.
06:57That's in the air taken.
07:00And needed to break this partnership.
07:02And it's the leggy.
07:04Two batters wanting to go big and find the boundary every delivery.
07:08Reverse.
07:10Didn't get it out of the middle of the bat.
07:12Asif took the ball.
07:15I think he was complaining about the lights.
07:17But more importantly, he took the catch.
07:19And Rishad, who has had a good tournament so far,
07:22he has gone for a bit, yet breaks his partnership.
07:26Osman Khan.
07:27He goes for 39.
07:28Moutan Sultan's 159 for two.
07:34Interesting move from Shaheen Shah Fidi.
07:38Gone up in the air.
07:41Filder getting underneath.
07:42Filder getting underneath.
07:44And Abdullah Shafiq has taken a brilliant catch.
07:50Yasir trying to go for the big heave-ho.
07:53Trying to find another six.
07:55In the end, had to drag it too far from outside off stump to the leg side.
08:03A happy man.
08:06Yeah, strategic timeout really worked for Lohar Columbus.
08:10Managed to remove both the same factors.
08:13That was a very good innings from Yasir Khan.
08:1687 from 44.
08:18It's 163 for three.
08:20Moutan Sultan's under 200, maybe not.
08:23220, they'll try.
08:26Straight away, first ball of the over.
08:28But it's another six.
08:30It's nine sixes in this inning so far.
08:36High in the air.
08:38Somebody will get underneath it.
08:39Surely they do.
08:40It's a diving Zaman Khan.
08:42Desperately looking for something to happen in the field.
08:50And this may just lift them up as a unit.
08:55Down for the count.
08:56He gets the ball to bounce.
08:59Bit difficult really to sweeping him.
09:02Turner could only get 15 but at a good pace.
09:05And it's 179 for four.
09:09That is pumped away off the back foot.
09:12And it's gone all the way.
09:14Iftikhar with a maximum.
09:1710 sixes now.
09:22Slow ball.
09:23Half an appeal and given.
09:26It was Billings behind who really went up.
09:29Shine Shafridi thought, I better go up.
09:32Bracewell goes.
09:34So what happened here?
09:36Probably a slow delivery that's shaped away from the
09:40left hand as Rage.
09:41Faint tickled.
09:42Taken by the keeper.
09:44No dramas.
09:45Massive ultra-age in fact.
09:49And so.
09:51Result for Shine Shafridi.
09:53He's been really hit hard all over the puck.
09:55Bracewell could only get nine.
09:57And it's 198 for five.
10:03Oh, how good is that?
10:05That is a stunning straight drive.
10:07Off the back foot and absolutely plundering in.
10:10Back.
10:14Full toss.
10:15Powered.
10:16Powered all the way.
10:18Highest score here in Multan right now.
10:22They've beat their previous best of 210.
10:28Full pitch, thumped away.
10:31Is that hit that's getting on the full?
10:33They will check.
10:38Oh, high on the bat.
10:39Should have gone for six.
10:41No, surely look for two.
10:42No.
10:43Mitchell stops them getting the two.
10:45So the ending of an excellent innings.
10:46Remember, go back to the start.
10:48The toss with Bazid Khan.
10:51Mohamed Rizwan says we'll have a bat first.
10:54We'll put runs on the board.
10:56The highest total here at this ground.
10:58228 for five.
11:01A magnificent performance.
11:06Started off well by Yasir, who was brought into the side
11:11in place of Shea Hope.
11:1287 from 44.
11:14Captain Rizwan with 32 from 17.
11:17And Usman Khan with 39 from 24.
11:19And Iftikar and important innings at the end.
11:2240 from 18.
11:23I've seen Multan Sultans get to the highest total here on this ground.
11:30It's been an expensive night for Yosim Bowlers.
11:33Four overs.
11:34One for 43 for the captain, Zaman Khan.
11:36One over for 22.
11:38Harris Ralph, three overs.
11:40None for 54.
11:41The pick really was Asif Afridi with his four overs.
11:44One for 26.
11:46229 is their target.
11:51Shayne Shafridi with words just before they left the field.
11:56Slip in place.
11:57Here we go.
11:58The chase is on.
11:59Everyone is a little bit excited out there.
12:05And he's just getting told off.
12:11There we go.
12:11Gee, that's a lovely way to get off the mark.
12:16Backs away and carves it over the offside.
12:25Goes all the way as well.
12:27The bounce is nice and even.
12:33He gets enough of the bat.
12:35Probably two thirds of the bat on it.
12:38It flies away back with a point for six.
12:47Gave him width.
12:49Allowed him to free his arms and he goes all the way.
12:52Wanted Willie to pitch the ball up.
12:56And he got that Lionel out to the length.
12:59Now rest.
13:00History.
13:06Here's an opportunity and taken.
13:09Excellent work there.
13:13Iftika Ahmed just camped himself perfectly by the rope.
13:21Eyes on the ball.
13:24Very balanced and took it easily.
13:27That's a good grab.
13:30First blood drawn.
13:31And through the offspinner Bracewell.
13:34It's 38 for one.
13:41Uses his feet.
13:43And this is another one that's gone all the way.
13:47Vakha Zaman is third sixth of the night.
13:51This is brilliant.
13:53Brilliant batting from Vakha.
13:59Oh, this has gone high.
14:02This is a lot of time under the ball.
14:04And what a catch.
14:07Josh Little.
14:09His first game of the HBL PSL.
14:12He camped under it.
14:14And took a specky.
14:18Brilliant.
14:19Brilliant execution from Ubaic.
14:22Vakha just probably lost a little bit of momentum having to wait.
14:26And being off strike has a massive whoosh at that one.
14:30And little.
14:30Well, yeah.
14:32Well, may you celebrate, sir.
14:34And draw attention to yourself.
14:35Because that is an absolute beauty.
14:37And Rizwan and co know how important that might well be.
14:42Vakha Zaman goes 32 from 14.
14:44It's 49 for two from five.
14:46And Rizwan and Rizwan.
14:47And Rizwan and Rizwan.
14:48And Rizwan and Rizwan.
14:49Six overs.
14:50The Pepsi power play.
14:51This is in the air.
14:52It's timed well.
14:53Placed even better.
14:55One bounce into the fence.
14:56Take place off.
15:01Stop them getting underneath it.
15:03Mitchell will fly this other way all the way for a six.
15:07We know how good he is down the ground.
15:1278 meters.
15:13There it is.
15:18There it is.
15:19The second boundary over extra cover.
15:21Yeah, it's been reviewed.
15:37So, I think the next voice will be the third umpire.
15:47Ball is close to the bat or gloves.
15:49To confirm ultra edge, please.
15:52Yeah, keep rolling.
15:53Yeah, freeze it.
15:55There's a spike.
15:56When ball is next to the bat.
15:59No gap between ball and bat.
16:01So, can you go back on field, please?
16:03Rashid.
16:04Change your original not out decision.
16:05Stand by.
16:07Your skin.
16:07Make a signal, please.
16:10A terrific review.
16:13And a disappointed Abdullah Shafiq out for 18.
16:16The whole calendars, 85 for three.
16:22Bold, beautiful delivery.
16:25Straight into the attack.
16:27142 kilometers per hour.
16:30And Obeid has his second.
16:32A perfect length.
16:36And once you get C movement back in, a lot of batters will struggle with that.
16:43And it is appreciable movement at 142.5 clicks.
16:49Eiliterin finally happy.
16:53He's going pear-shaped now.
16:54Dara Mitchell, 19, 87 for four.
16:59Pulled.
17:02Pulled.
17:03Lovely shot.
17:06Billings was really quick on that.
17:08Another maximum.
17:13Goes big again this time.
17:15It's a straighter hit away towards straighter mid-wicket.
17:18This is brilliant batting.
17:21It was a partnership of 73.
17:23Oh, yeah!
17:24Pulled in.
17:26And it works for Rizwan.
17:28Osama Amir has provided them with a breather.
17:35Did it spin?
17:36Not a great deal as a straighter ball.
17:38Probably a top spinner.
17:41Hitting the stumps.
17:43And so another wicket has gotten down.
17:45Triple one for the loss of five.
17:50Now, Osama Amir provides them with a breakthrough.
17:54Rashad could only get two.
17:55And it's triple one for five.
18:01Drive into the gap and drives exquisitely.
18:04Oh, that's gone high up in the air.
18:14That should clear the fans.
18:15And it does.
18:16That's the mighty, meaty, timely blow.
18:21Time to go is right now.
18:23Has to be.
18:24With that last over from Osama Amir.
18:30Here we go again.
18:31Billings on strike.
18:32Strikes it big.
18:33That's gone straight for six.
18:35This is magnificent hitting.
18:37This is great hitting under pressure.
18:44That's gone up in the air.
18:45So that bouncer has had an effect.
18:48I think, yes.
18:48Kamran Gullam takes it.
18:51Sorry, it's Billings actually.
18:52So that's a massive blow.
18:58Yeah, another batter has been undone.
19:00By the extra pace and that movement.
19:02Back in to the right hand from Ubaid.
19:05And there's the, oh, it's a high five catastrophe.
19:11Billings is gone after scoring.
19:14A very entertaining 43 of just 23 balls.
19:17Kalandas suffer further.
19:18149 for six.
19:23And that might be another one.
19:25That's going to be another one.
19:29Four.
19:32In the fourth over.
19:36Amir has been superb.
19:39Well, it was always going to be a big ask for the law.
19:42Kalandas is 167 was the highest run chase here.
19:48And with 229 required.
19:50They needed someone to stay in.
19:51They haven't had that.
19:52Showing sharp really comes and goes to two.
19:55Kalandas, well, 152 for seven.
20:01Oh, nailed.
20:02That's huge.
20:03Lahore Kalandas, they needed front right batters in this situation.
20:13They still would have a chance, but not now.
20:16It has to be a miracle from here on for them to win this one.
20:19That will be four.
20:24Ten from two deliveries.
20:27Still a very good surface to bat on.
20:34In the air, it's gone all the way.
20:36Oh, with a bit of help.
20:38With a little bit more help and perhaps if he'd come in a little earlier,
20:41Sikanda Raza picks up a wicket.
20:47Easy as you like.
20:49Usman, punch on the nose or not, is not dropping that.
20:53You can be benefited as a baller.
21:01If you ball that line, it's away from the arc of the batter.
21:06Thick outside edge and easy catch behind the stumps.
21:10Nestled into the gloves of the wicketkeeper.
21:12It's also for freebie, gone for four.
21:151.75 for eight.
21:22Absolutely smote that.
21:26Sikanda Raza, it's in a losing cause, you would think.
21:30Owner's looking a bit more cheerful.
21:336-6 is required and change.
21:38Excellent way to start.
21:40Yassir Khan takes the catch.
21:43His first wicket in HBL PSL for Josh Little.
21:47And it's a decent catch.
21:50From Yassir Khan.
21:54Hands high.
21:57Simple catch.
22:00And it is Harris-Ralph who will have to depart.
22:03He goes for one.
22:05Colander's 1-9-1 for nine.
22:1015, the second 50 in PSL cricket for Sikanda Raza.
22:19It has been one that has been in total contrast to the way that a lot of the batting has gone for the Colanders.
22:27And it has been totally in vain because Morten Soltan having gone zero from three matches back here at home are back on the board.
22:37And that has been a performance of some authority from them back on home turf.
22:43They needed Fakar to go big in this one.
22:48But it was unfortunate that he had to depart early in the piece.
22:52And that's a name proving to be a liability.
22:55That's where they have to think about to bring about a change.
22:58Abdullah Shafiq.
23:00Yes, he's in good form.
23:02But not tonight.
23:04Expensive from David Willey.
23:06One for 56.
23:06Bracewell, excellent.
23:08Bowling in the Pepsi power play.
23:10Two for 20.
23:11Ubaid, the pick for me.
23:13Three for 37.
23:15And a couple of wickets for Usama Mir.
23:17Two for 26.
23:20HBL PSL.
23:21Maltan Soltan's Yasir Khan with 87 from 44 was quite superb.
23:25Viftikar once again providing a flourish at the back end with 40 from 18.
23:30Tough day for the bowlers.
23:32Usman and Rizwan also played their part in that record score here at the Maltan Cricket Stadium with 228 for 5 for the Caland as well.
23:40Raza, Billings, Fakar, they all did their very best.
23:43But in the end, they fell well short.
23:46Excellent bowling from Ubaid, Bracewell and Usama Mir in particular.
23:53What does that mean for the points table?
23:55Well, it certainly means that Maltan Soltan's have their first points of the tournament.
24:00Two points there.
24:01Lahore Kalander stay in third with two games won, two games lost.
24:06And nothing moves until perhaps tomorrow.
24:13or something just strikes you pick.
24:15House after it remembers.
24:1610.
24:18Two months there.
24:22But two generations come about.
24:23One, two, three, seven, seven, six.
24:25One, two, three.
24:28One, two, three, one, four, five.
24:32To this battle one body.
24:33One, two, three, four, five.
24:36This battle isstanden battle by the psychiatryклад.
24:38And the football team continues.
