6.21pm That is that. Tahir's hat-trick - the third in the PSL - headlines Multan Sultans' third win of the tournament. Multan all but wrapped up the match when they took the last five Quetta wickets for just one run. Sanga then completed the formalities with a smooth 51 not out. Multan join Karachi at the top of the table with seven points, while Quetta, having won just two of their five games, drop down to fifth place and are stuck on four points.

Here's Sanga: I was just playing the ball on merit and trying to play as straight as possible. I had to change my stance a bit to give myself more time. The hat-trick from Tahir was unbelievable. I love batting still - there was not much swing there.

Sohail Tanvir, not Imran Tahir, is the Player of the Match. Thanks for tuning in. Goodbye for now
