So the tournament is almost done for Quetta Gladiators and Karachi Kings. Islamabad have a much better run rate than Quetta, so even if they lost today, they are most likely to qualify for the playoffs. On the other hand, Karachi Kings will be mighty disappointed with their season. We'll be back shortly for the live coverage of today's second match as Multan Sultans take on Islamabad United. See you soon!

Sarfaraz, Quetta Gladiators captain: The pitch was a tricky one to bat one, but we managed to bowl well and win the match. Our bowlers were outstanding, especially Khurram and Naseem. The only chance for us to qualify is if Islamabad don't bat first tonight.

Babar Azam, Karachi Kings captain: It was an unfortunate season for us, the fans will be disappointed with it, but we tried hard. We had a lot of injuries in our team, and that didn't help us.

17:57 Local Time, 12:57 GMT, 18:27 IST: Khurram's 4-wicket haul and Naseem's impressive spell has helped the Gladiators crush the opposition by 23 runs. The Karachi openers - Babar and Clarke got them off to a fantastic start, but once the opening partnership was broken, Karachi Kings kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Something similar happened in Quetta's innings too, however, Roy's contribution proved to be the difference in the end. Stay around for the presentations.

Ashir Qureshi to Umaid Asif, 1 run, Jason Roy almost pulls off a blinder. The batter had lofted it to wide long-off and Roy sprints across to his right, throws himself in the air and gets his right hand to it. Sarfaraz - the keeper runs all the way to long-off and appreciates his effort
