End of over 1 (8 runs) Quetta Gladiators 8/0 (119 runs required from 19 overs, RR: 8.00, RRR: 6.26)

Ahmed Shehzad7 (4b 1x4 0x6)
Sohail Khan1-0-8-0
0.6
Sohail Khan to Wright, no run, back of a length outside off, keeps a bit low to beat Wright's attempted back-foot push
0.5
Sohail Khan to Ahmed Shehzad, 1 run, short outside off, pulled away to the left of deep square leg
0.4
Sohail Khan to Ahmed Shehzad, no run, length ball on off stump, and Shehzad plays across it, ends up whipping to mid-off with a lot of bottom hand
0.3
Sohail Khan to Ahmed Shehzad, FOUR, fullish outside off, that wasn't quite up there for the drive, but he adjusts beautifully, just slices downwards with a slightly open face to place it through backward point
0.2
Sohail Khan to Ahmed Shehzad, 2 runs, strays onto the pads and that's a lovely shot, just a minimal flick of the wrist to clip it away smoothly to the left of the deep square leg fielder
0.1
Sohail Khan to Wright, 1 run, back of a length on middle stump, tucked away to the right of mid-on
 

5.15pm Tricky, indeed. Ahmed Shehzad and Luke Wright will open for Quetta. Sohail Khan has the new ball.

Mehdi: "These small run chases are always tricky"
