Asif Ali, POTM and stand-in captain for Islamabad : Played according to my strengths. Last few games didn't go to plan but grateful that the shots came off today. Didn't have options after our two bowlers went off. Had confidence in Waqas. This one is dedicated to Shadab.

Babar Azam, Karachi captain: The way the team fought, felt good. Mindset is always positive in every match. Have to play according to the situation. The first 10 overs we utilised well but then didn't bowl in our areas to concede 190. Their partnership brought us back in the game. Qasim came straight from the U19, played superbly.

23:37 Local Time, 18:37 GMT, 00:07 IST: What a crazy finish to the game and the Islamabad players are absolutely thrilled. They were two bowlers down for most of the chase after Shadab and Zeeshan had to leave the field early with respective injuries. And still they seemed to be in control at one point. But what an effort that was from Imad Wasim and Qasim Akram to lead the revival for Karachi, taking them so close to their first win. A stunning partnership of 108 for the sixth wicket off just 52 balls. They needed just eight off the final over, which came down to four off four balls. But Waqas Maqsood turned it around dramatically, snatching it away from Karachi and knocking them out of the race for qualification.

Maqsood: When the penultimate over was going on, I was thinking whatever I get to defend I have to put in my full effort. First ball was a dot and it gave me confidence. Focus was on to bowl in my areas. The confidence Shadab gives me as captain, no one else can match it.
