Rizwan, Player of the Match: To be honest, we didn't play well. Our bowling wasn't good. We got the runs, all credit to our death batters. The way Rossouw and Khushdil batted - they deserve all the credit. The bowlers didn't stick to their plans, our fielding was below-par, myself and Shan didn't bat well. It was two-paced, was tough to maintain the momentum. Two matches left, we'll give opportunities to the youngsters but we'll play with the same intensity with which we played our first game.

Babar Azam: We've played well in the last two matches, unable to cross the line in the end. We haven't executed our plans and our fielding has been poor. We have been making mistakes, hopefully we perform better in the coming matches. Execution is the key.

23:21 Local Time, 18:21 GMT, 23:51 IST: Karachi Kings fail to register their maiden win of the season and Multan Sultans seal a top-two finish! Chasing 175, the table-toppers got off to a watchful start scoring just 44 runs in the powerplay. The openers ran plenty of twos and stitched a century opening stand. With the asking rate on the rise, Shan Masood perished in an attempt to the up the ante. The Sultans needed 70 runs off the last five overs. That's when captain Rizwan decided to switch gears. He struck three fours off Asif in the 16th over but holed out in the very next over. Mir Hamza removed the big-hitting Tim David and the equation came down to 29 runs needed off 12 balls. The experienced Jordan was summoned to bowl the penultimate over and Khushdil toyed with him and took the game away from the Kings - courtesy a 20-run over. Rossouw applied the finishing touches and capped off the match with a stylish six. Hang around for the presentations..

U Asif to Rossouw, SIX, wow! Rossouw finishes in style. 135.9kph, Rossouw shuffles across a long way towards off and brings his wrists into play. Whips this length ball powerfully over deep square leg. The left-handed batter drops the bat, folds his hands and admires his shot, probably poses for the photographs. The Multan dug-out is cock-a-hoop as they win by 7 wickets!
