That's it from us for today. We'll be back with you tomorrow for the double-header. Thanks for your company. It's goodbye and goodnight from me, Rvel Zahid.

Shaheen Afridi: Credit to Karachi. Game went into he last over which is great for PSL. It was a good match, it was difficult to bring in spinners when Pollard was in; they build a crucial partnership. Hasan played a really good shot in the end, couldn't bowl left-arm spinner from the end with shorter boundaries so we wanted to take it till the end. Players have done well, Haris bowling was terrific but unfortunately he got injured. I hope and pray that he is okay because he is an asset for Pakistan. We'll try to do better in upcoming matches.

Agonizing defeat for Lahore Qalandars who fought till the last moment but still remain at the bottom of the table. What an incredible contest, Lahore-Karachi rivalry lived up to its hype and fans saw a heart-racing thriller! Hasan Ali will be a relieved man because that was not the most sensible of shots at that time as he looked to finish the game with a glory shot. He will thank Mir Hamza for getting Karachi over the line.

Karachi were in doldrums at 44/4 but a fantastic partnership between veterans Shoaib Malik and Kieron Pollard got them out of trouble and the duo put the chase back on track. The 95-run stand changed the complexion of the game but Lahore managed to uncouple them and roared back into the game. There were so many twists and turns and the game oscillated like a pendulum!

Ali Hasni: "Biryani wins from Pulao"

Nauman: "4 games in a row, LQ have failed to defend totals despite 3 fast men who play for Pakistan. While troublesome for them, concerning for Pakistan T20Is too."

swathi: "Even with Haris Rauf bowling well, LQ could not defend 175 here. Alarming"

Khalid: "The strategy getting wickets from main bowler is not up to the mark! Last over with ordinary bowler is still remaining"

Ahsan Hafeez to Mir Hamza, 1 run

Karachi Kings win by 2 wickets! Length ball just outside off, too close to cut but he goes hard at it and gets some bat on it which is enough to fetch a boundary, dribbles away to deep third!

Ahsan Hafeez to Hasan Ali, OUT

Has he dropped it? Haris at long-off has hurt himself while tumbling at the ground, that looks painful. He caught the ball and then tossed it away before falling. Ahsan zipped it quicker and cramped him for room, Hasan larruped it down the ground and didn't get under it, Haris Rauf didn't lose the ball so umpire signal it OUT, It's an unbelievable catch! Haris hurt his shoulder but made sure to complete catch! He has got an elastic bandage around the shoulder, hope it's not too serious He has left the ground

Zaman Khan to Irfan Khan, FOUR runs

Ruins his over with a timely boundary! Misses the yorker by a whisker, he dispatches it too deep midwicket boundary. This is high quality shot, pressure, what pressure says irfan Khan? Excellent timing but the key here is waiting for the ball till the last second so he can place it into the gap

Zaman Khan to Sams, OUT

uff! Zaman nails a perfect yorker and rearranges stumps! This has got to be one of the best yorkers ever! Got it right in the blockhole and under the bat, smashing into middle stump, Daniel Sams had no answer to that. Brilliant Zaman Brilliant!

Shaheen Shah Afridi to Sams, FOUR runs

Great batting! Round the wicket, good length angling in from outside off, stays still and timed the pants off it, absolutely leathering that over mid-off for a blistering boundary

Afeef: "Pollard smashed Linde earlier and he blasted Salamkheil in the previous match. What's funny to me is that he played with both these guys in the SA20 and ILT20 just a few weeks ago."

GormintAunty: "Pollard should be awarded the Tamgha e Imtiaz for the number of scholarships he has funded so far,,,"

Haris Rauf to Irfan Khan, 1 run

Serves up a high full-toss, looks like a no-ball. Fended to Shaheen at mid-off. He was way out of his crease so that will be taken into account, above waist at the point of contact

Haris Rauf to Irfan Khan, 4 leg byes

This game is far from over! Strays on the pads, rams a yorker, inside edge onto the pad and sped away for four, keeper was wrong-footed and it's a very crucial boundary
