Shaheen Shah Afridi4047011.7563400
Zaman Khan403619.0094130
10.1 to RR Rossouw, GONE! No sooner had Rossouw reached 400 for the tournament, he tries to boom a slower ball from Zaman over long on and holes out to Rauf! Big wicket for Lahore.... 70/2
David Wiese402406.0061000
Rashid Khan401814.50110100
12.6 to Mohammad Rizwan, WRONG-UN! Glorious bowling, albeit down to a predictable shot. Rizwan was always going to heave to leg, so Rashid darts in a googly that disrupts the stumps. 90/3
Haris Rauf403438.5071210
7.3 to Usman Khan, chops the slower ball onto his stumps! 79mph/127kph, offcutter, and Usman attempted to run it away past short third with an open face. He gave himself some room outside his leg stump, but that only meant his bottom-edged steer diverted ball into timber. Rauf roars in celebration.. 53/1
19.2 to KA Pollard, CARTHWEELING STUMP ALERT! Quick, perfect length and off stump is taken for a walk! Stunning bowling from Rauf ends Pollard's vital innings. At 154kph, it's the quickest delivery of the match so far. 155/4
19.3 to Khushdil Shah, ANOTHER! Change to around the wicket, but it's the same piece of wood gone for walkies. Right through the left-hander and leg stump is out of the ground. 155/5

BOWLINGOMRWECON0s4s6sWDNB
Sheldon Cottrell302036.66131140
2.2 to Mirza Baig, Revenge! Quicker, fuller and enticing a huge swipe from Baig who gets a thick edge through to Rizwan. 15/1
2.4 to Abdullah Shafique, SALUTES OUTx2! Cottrell gets another! Shafique trapped well in front, head falling over to the offside as this one pitches and comes into the pads. The batter reviews but it's hitting halfway up middle and leg. 15/2
4.5 to Shaheen Shah Afridi, QALANDARS REELING! Shaheen's promotion is over. A full toss from Cottrell entices a big shot but the shape is enough to draw a thick outside edge, leading to a smartly taken catch by Usman Mir at cover. 28/4
Anwar Ali301314.3381000
3.5 to Fakhar Zaman, HUGE! Anwar Ali, you beauty! He'd tried a leg cutter earlier in the over, but this one is a bit more seam up and cuts through the left-hander to trim the bail on top of middle and off. What a delivery. What a moment.. 19/3
Abbas Afridi2.30512.00100000
14.3 to Haris Rauf, fullish outside off, Haris swings for the hills and gets a thin outside edge through to Rizwan, and that will be that. Multan win by 84, and head into their third consecutive PSL final!. 76/10
Ihsanullah311816.00132101
10.5 to SW Billings, swung into the leg side... straight down Cottrell's throat! 93mph/149kph, Billings looked to pull a good-length ball over the man on the rope but picked him out perfectly. Multan are inching closer to a third straight final. 49/7
Kieron Pollard10313.0030000
9.5 to Sikandar Raza, STUNNING CATCH! Abbas Afridi, take a bow. Raza hits this high into the night sky and Abbas is scampering to his left from wide fine leg. For a moment, it looked like there would be a collision between two fielders, but Abbas shouts loudest and then takes an exceptional catch tumbling forward. That's game, surely.... 43/6
Usama Mir201226.0081100
11.2 to Rashid Khan, leggie gets leggie! Rashid gets his dancing shoes on, but it seems as though he has two left feet. He tries to swing a back-of-a-length ball over the leg side for six, but is nowhere near the ball and is stranded a long way short of his crease. Rizwan takes the ball at head height, and after a bit of a delay, the TV umpire is confident that he collected the ball behind the stumps, rather than in front. That means Rashid has to trudge off, and Lahore are 50 for 8!. 50/8
13.5 to D Wiese, smashed on the pad, no inside edge this time! Wiese reviews, out of hope rather than expectation. Length ball, a googly which skids through lowish and thumps Wiese on his right thigh as he shapes to swing over midwicket. Hitting the top of middle-and-leg, and Multan are one away!. 76/9
