Cricinfo's Most Valuable Players of the Match
11.03pm Islamabad United move up to second place with their third win, which was built around a solid all-round bowling performance first up (headlined by Faheem Ashraf's 3 for 26) and finished off by Luke Ronchi's 67 not out, as well as Samit Patel's quickfire 45.
