That's all from us. We are heading into the final phase of the league stage and there's another game coming up tomorrow. Do join us for that. Ta ta!
Wahab Riaz | Winning captain: We have been seeing runs on the board is better as the ball holds to the surface and that's the reason we played an extra spinner. We got two good partnerships after losing early wickets and that is what we need keep doing. It is difficult for the fast bowlers to grip the ball because of the dew but you need to be smart. We believe in match-ups; it was difficult to leave out Haider and Butt, but we brought in Qadir and Talat and they both did well today.
Sarfaraz Ahmed | Losing captain: The start was very good by Naseem Shah. Yes one over went for plenty but we had done well to contain them to 185. Qadir's over was the turning point and that's where the game got away from us. We are still finding our right combinations as players are getting injured and we are not able to get a steady XI every game.
Hussain Talat | Player of the Match: The management told me to rest for one game and got me back for today's game. Whenever I play I try and give my best. I keep practising on my bowling and Riaz is always behind me to bowl more in the nets. It was difficult to play cross-batted shots but batting with Shoaib Malik makes my job easier.
23:25 Local Time, 18:25 GMT, 23:55 IST: The chase was all about one man - Will Smeed. He fought a lone battle and was unfortunate to not get his maiden T20 hundred. Last time he had got 97 against Peshawar Zalmi and could not win the match, today his 99 too comes in a losing cause. You gotta feel for the youngster. The first half of the chase was very similar to Peshawar's innings; two early wickets and then a partnership for the third wicket, but that's about it. They were in the game till the 15th over but Qadir's brilliant 16th over where he gave away just three runs and picked up two wickets, sealed the game in Peshawar's favour. With this win they go ahead of Quetta in the points table and are currently placed fourth. The presentations are coming up..
