That's all we have for you. Thanks for your company. Good night.

Here's the playoffs line-up: March 13: Qualifier | Quetta vs Peshawar, March 14: Eliminator 1 | Islamabad vs Karachi, March 15: Eliminator 2: Loser Q vs Winner E1

Kamran Akmal is Man of the Match for his 86 off 48. "Getting a total this big requires partnerships. And credit to Imam as well. The team told me to play positive and we did well, Credit to bowlers as well. Defending 200 isn't easy but Hasan and Sameen did well and hopefully we can continue it. I look at the pitch, I stay positive and then I try my best for the team. Hasan with the new ball and Wahab in the middle overs are really good. Wahab was bowling so fast I had to ask him to slow it down because it kept thudding into my gloves"

"Obviously with their start, they had a massive partnership and we struggled to chase that. We were looking at 230 but our bowlers stuck in there. And then we lost too many wickets early," Colin Ingram says. "I've enjoyed the PSL. Got a great taste of it last year, gave me an idea of what I had to work on in these conditions. If we can get a good start with the bat, that'll hjelp. We haven't put the perfect game together yet. We need to win the first six over, especially against Islamabad in the first playoff. I enjoy fielding. I always used to bowl a lot but now I've transferred most of that energy into fielding .And if you're out there running around it keeps you young as well. Karachi's atmosphere is incredible, Last night in the last over, when we puled out the win, it was electric. Looking forward to getting in the pool and recharge the batteries and going full tilt at Islamabad"

Peshawar Zalmi really don't need a 200-plus total. Not with that bowling attack. Hasan Ali struck in the first over and when he came back in the death, he was reversing the white-ball (which is basically unheard of) Tymal Mills is the fastest bowler in the PSL and he also has a superb slower ball. He took out Colin Ingram, the one Karachi batsman who looked in any way dangerous, and once he fell for 71 off only 37 balls, the chase was done. Ingram was the sixth to fall with the score on 125. The 10th fell with the score on 142.

khan23: "hassan ali has got a hattriiickk folks!"

Ijaz Ahmed : "Exact 50% runs of the kings scored by Ingram 71 out of 142.."

Talha Hameed: "Most wickets in PSL 2019: Hasan Ali [21], Faheem Ashraf [19], Sohail Tanvir [15], Umer Khan/Wahab Riaz [13 each], Amir/Shinwari [12 each]"

W
Hasan Ali to Usman Shinwari, OUT

inswinging yorker on middle, Shinwari slugs it out to midwicket, but there's drama at the non-strikers, where Umer Khan had set off for a non-existent single and has no hope of making it back. That's the last wicket. Fairly ridiculous (but fitting) end to the Karachi batting effort.

Hasan Ali to Imad Wasim, OUT

taken at cover. Imad is backing away to lift the ball, meant to cramp him, over the off-side infield. But doesn't succeed

Mills to Ingram, OUT

gooooone! He's skewed the short ball outside off to mid-off. For once Ingram loses all of his balance, swinging like a rusty gate, and the double quick delivery comes off the splice and settles in Wahab's hands

Mills to Ingram, FOUR runs

he sneaks it through his own legs! Okay maybe it isn't as deliberate as that but even a leg stump yorker finds its way to the boundary off Ingram's bat, helped of course by Gul, who misfields at short fine leg. he's had a shocker of a day
