Outstanding innings from Shane Watson. The 37-year old looked in cruise control ever since he walked out to open the innings and now walks back with 81 off 55 balls and the tag of highest run-getter among overseas players in the PSL. Umar Akmal also sparkled in the middle of that chase, making plenty of his fans out there come out and clamour for his inclusion for the 2019 World Cup. He's the Man of the Match as well. Right then, thanks for your company, folks. See you again soon.
