Babar Azam: Congratulations to Karachi for winning a match. It was a good pitch, we aimed 170-180 and we fell short of it. We wanted to pick early wickets and we managed to do it. Our bowlers bowled to the plan, I rotated the bowlers as I didn't want their batters to settle against a particular bowler. Yorkers are important in T20s especially in the death. Our bowlers executed them and mixed it up nicely.

Shaheen Afridi: Karachi played better cricket overall. Early on, we gifted wickets away. Loss is part of the game, we just need to bounce back. Zaman won two Man of the Match awards, the future of Pakistan cricket is good. We'll try to finish in the top-two and gain momentum.

Mir Hamza, Player of the Match: There was extra bounce. The team plan was simple. We wanted to put a smile on the faces of the Karachi fans. We (himself and Azam) weren't talking about the length or field placement. Wiese hit a six over extra cover and it was just a bluff.

Chris Jordan - It was a high catch (on the Fakhar Zaman dismissal), but I have been practicing those, so I was confident, was a big wicket for us. We managed to keep the ball dry, kept with our simple plans and it worked well. He has got everything (on Mir Hamza), his yorker, the lengths, bowling the second last over, the future of Pakistan bowlers are very very bright. Good on him and good on the team as well. Was a big game, two big cities, a big rivalry, we stayed as calm as possible, executed the skills and it was important to win the big moments.

23:30 Local Time, 18:30 GMT, 00:00 IST: Stop the presses, Karachi Kings have won! After eight losses, they finally get off the mark. Defending a below-par score, Mir Hamza accounted for both the Lahore openers. Just when Ghulam and Hafeez started to stitch a partnership, the former fell to Imad Wasim. 52/2 soon became 64/5 as Salt and Hafeez were dismissed off successive deliveries. Post that, Harry Brook and David Wiese put up a fight with a half-ton partnership. The equation came down to '31 runs needed off the last two overs'. Mir Hamza bowled a terrific penultimate over (W 6 W 0 0 0) and removed both the set batters. And then, Jordan nailed his yorkers in the final over to ensure that there were no twists. Stay tuned for the presentations..
