Peshawar Zalmi vs Karachi Kings, 27th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Right, that's it from this game. Don't go anywhere as another exciting contest is starting in a few minutes from now. Hop tabs and catch all the action. Cya!

Sammy: I must commend the team, the way they came out was outstanding. We still have to come back tomorrow and win the game. It was a good team effort overall. I think the guys know what is at stake. Tomorrow is another opportunity. We need to come out and put in a clinical performance. Hopefully, we can do it. I want to congratulate Younis Khan for the birth of his baby.

Morgan: I thought we started well, made some inroads on a tough wicket. We created chances, two spinners bowled well. But we didn't bowl well in the end. Zalmi got 20-25 runs more and we didn't turn up with the bat. Important game coming up tomorrow. Lot of positives to take away.

Kamran Akmal is the Man of the Match for his 51-ball 75.

18:59 Local Time: A clinical victory in the end for Sammy and his boys. With this win, they remain in the hunt for the play-offs. And it makes things much spicier as we move forward. Babar Azam was the only batsman who managed to get going at the top. No significant contribution from the top-order, Boom Boom Afridi showed glimpses of his might but as so often is the case, he couldn't kick-on. Once he was dismissed, the result was a foregone conclusion. Peshawar add those vital two points to their kitty.
