Full commentary

6.43pm Back to back losses for Quetta Gladiators, and this one was set up by Lamichhane's 4 for 10 and then finished off by an unbroken 74-run stand between AB de Villiers and Haris Sohail. No surprises, Sandeep Lamichhane is Player of the Match.

Abhijato: "My Crystal Ball is ecstatic. "You know what all my angles are?" it asks me, knowing my exams are coming soon. "What?" I enquire. "360°!" it says, and continues jumping around. It won't fall down, I can assure you, for it is on Cloud Nine at the moment. AB and his clinical beauty can only be applauded. What a player!"

Salman Zafar: "Back to Back losses!! Confidence level down and that's going to be hurting QG in upcoming matches."
