Who'd have thought that a virtual dead-rubber to sign off the group stages of PSL 2022 will turn out to be such an entertaining fare. That's how this format is - unpredictable to the core. Right then, we're now off to the business end of the tournament. Lahore will face defending champs Multan in Qualifier 1 while Peshawar take on Islamabad in the Eliminator. Let's hope we get games as thrilling as today. On that note, this is Hari Sadanandan signing off on behalf of Kumar Abhisekh Das and Venkatesh AV. Cheers!

Wahab Riaz | Player of the Match: There was pressure (in the Super Over) but I backed my skills and thankfully, was able to restrict them to a score we could chase easily. (On Shaheen's knock) These things happen in T20 cricket, you never know. There was some pressure on the bowler, but that happens. Haris has made a lot of difference to our team from the day he has joined. Hopefully he will keep improving further. When you need just six to win, it's important to send batters who can hit singles, that's why we went with Shoaib and Haris. Singles are really important in this tournament at this stage with the pitches starting to slow down.

Shaheen Afridi: Have been practicing my batting in the nets to ensure that I can contribute to the team with the bat if needed. Will try to improve more if possible. Talking about the match, Peshawar played really well but we weren't good enough on the field. If we had taken our catches, we could have won the game. Hopefully, we can do well in the playoffs.

23:44 Local Time, 18:44 GMT, 00:14 IST: Calm stuff from the veteran Malik but the job was done by Wahab, bowling an exceptional Super Over for Peshawar, keeping Lahore's batters to just five runs and once that was done, the chase was a formality. As long as Peshawar didn't panic and their senior-most batter finished things off in just two hits. A roller-coaster of T20 cricket nevertheless. Peshawar were clearly the better side for most part of the game, barring that costly 20th over from Umar. They deservedly ended on the winning side. Lahore were too rusty with the bat, and have to thank their skipper whose thunderous cameo gave them one more chance of winning the game. The batting though, once again didn't click.

Ball 2: Shaheen Afridi to Shoaib Malik, FOUR, Malik seals the deal for Peshawar in two deliveries! Half volley on the pads, duly glanced away fine down the leg-side and that's the end of that. Peshawar 8/0!

Ball 1: Shaheen Afridi to Shoaib Malik, FOUR, that's experience for you! Short of a length ball outside off, Malik doesn't go hard at it, just times the dab wide of backward point and third man is too fine. Used Afridi's pace to perfection and hit the gap. Peshawar 4/0

Should be Afridi to bowl the Super Over for Lahore. It is indeed the skipper. He conjured a miracle with the bat, can he do it with the ball? Will need to better what Wahab did for Peshawar and we can't put it beyond Lahore's captain to do it. Peshawar's batters haven't come out yet. Ah yes, there they come, as do the two umpires. Haris and Malik to begin proceedings.

World-class display that from Wahab, giving nothing away at all and Lahore barely have anything on the board in this Super Over. Peshawar's game to lose now. Just like it was in the proper part of the game. Peshawar need 6 to win the Super Over.
