Karachi Kings vs Lahore Qalandars, 6th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

That's a wrap to the Super Sunday. The first game was outright one-sided and the second also wasn't as competitive due to Fakhar's brilliance. The chasing trend continues to go big guns in the PSL. WIll it change anytime soon? Your guess is as good as mine. A single-header tomorrow as Quetta take on Multan in the evening. Do join us for that one. Until then, it's Hari Sadanandan signing off on behalf of Nikhil Jadhav and Praveen Kumar.

Shaheen Afridi | Lahore Qalandars captain: The plan was to play positive cricket and show intent. We wanted to go for wickets and Rashid especially did a great job in between. Then Haris also bowled well. Yes, we have a good attack and all bowled well. Senior players are helping me (in captaincy), mistakes can happen from me, so they are there to guide me. The way Fakhar has improved daily, credit is fully his. Hope that he can keep continue doing this for us and Pakistan.

Babar Azam | Karachi Kings captain: We had a good start with the bat, utilised the powerplay well but we didn't get the needed partnerships after that. I thought it was still a good score. Fakhar played outstandingly for them, credit to him. There was some grip and hold for the spinners. The pacers weren't able to execute their variations at the end. We need to field better, and take those half-chances which can help us win games.

Fakhar Zaman | Player of the Match: I'm just trying to take it one ball at a time. Not trying to do anything different from what I used to do earlier. It was gripping for their spinners, so I took that chance (in Imad's final over). You can always get those big wickets if you have wickets in hand. I'm getting more and more aware of my game, so it's helping me to avoid those overaggressive slogs.

23:13 Local Time, 18:13 GMT, 23:43 IST: Disappointed faces in the crowd here. Remember, the game is being held at Karachi and the Kings are obviously the crowd favourite to a large extent. But 170 was always below-par and Babar's men actually did well of making a match of this, helped also by the fact that there was no dew tonight. There was a bit of grip for the spinners and those trying off-speed deliveries. Lahore's batters didn't quite find the required rhythm except for Zaman who motored along to his maiden PSL ton. It was his masterclass that virtually singlehandedly did the job for Lahore. If he had gotten out even a couple of overs before he actually did, the game could have turned. That's how close it was. That chance of Zaman, put down by Yamin, will haunt Karachi for sure. It's their third loss on the trot and that's obviously the most horrendous way to start a season. Lahore will be relieved to get their first points on board.

Gregory to Samit Patel, FOUR, Patel seals Lahore's maiden win of the season! Slower short ball, he stands tall and flat-bats it over mid-off. Was a mishit, but enough to clear the infield and that'll do nicely for Shaheen's men

Gregory to Samit Patel, FOUR, deft from Patel! Almost the perfect yorker from Gregory but Patel manages to carve it away wide of the keeper. Opened the bat face late and got it away very fine. Scores level with this blow

Gregory to Samit Patel, wide, starts with a slower bouncer but it's a tad too wide outside off. Patel was giving the charge early and that's what forced Gregory to widen his line a bit

Lewis Gregory [3.0-0-23-0] is back into the attack

So, the game does go to the final over. Six needed to win. Karachi would be ruing that dropped chance of Fakhar by Yamin near the ropes. If that had been taken, who knows what would have happened. All the other Lahore batters have struggled. Anyway, it's Gregory to bowl and it will be his fellow countryman on strike.

U Asif to Samit Patel, 1 run, short of a length outside off, cut away towards sweeper. Just a single

David Wiese, right handed bat, comes to the crease

U Asif to Fakhar Zaman, out Caught by Imad Wasim!! They've finally gotten rid of him! But it's a bit too late in the game you'd think. Zaman goes after the slower bouncer, wanted to play the upper-cut but the lack of pace means that he hasn't got the required connection. Picks out third man to perfection. A glorious knock from Zaman ends. He's singlehandedly brought Lahore on the cusp of their first win of the season. Walks off to a rousing reception from his mates in the dugout. Fakhar Zaman c Imad Wasim b U Asif 106(60) [4s-12 6s-4]

U Asif to Fakhar Zaman, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Fakhar Zaman on strike and he'll clearly want to get this done this over.

U Asif to Samit Patel, 1 run, very full and wide, Patel looks to go inside out, gets a thick edge that just lands short of third man

U Asif to Samit Patel, no run, slower ball on a good length, Patel is early into the heave and misses. Successive dot balls but even then, there is no pressure at all on Lahore. Job was virtually done off Ilyas' last over

U Asif to Samit Patel, no run, short of a length, Patel pulls but can't find the gap at mid-wicket

U Asif to Fakhar Zaman, 1 run, low full toss, smeared down to long-on

Mohammad Ilyas to Samit Patel, FOUR, sort of a mishit but it's in the gap and another boundary. 22 off the over! Ilyas has his hand on his forehead. Was a slower short ball, managed to deceive Patel a bit but his pull was into the empty pockets at deep backward square leg
