Karachi Kings 152/7 (20/20 ov) Peshawar Zalmi 158/5 (18.3/20 ov)

Posted on at


6.50pm Peshawar have completed a fantastic chase. Brad Hodge kept his composure despite wickets falling all around him, and even with the required rate climbing, he stayed calm. Took the opportunities when he was presented with them and punished the bad bowling. Great chase that. Karachi's bowlers were really good throughout the first few overs but struggled to keep Hodge down. Karachi are therefore, entirely dependent on the result of the evening match. If Lahore win, they go through. And if Lahore lose, Karachi go through. Sets it up beautifully for the evening game.

Brad Hodge is the Man of the Match: "Boom Boom had some instructions for me to get myself in, with playoffs coming up."

M. Scharique: "One more possibility. If it is a washout, Lahore Qalandars will go through. "

 
18.3
Sohail Khan to Sammy, SIX, Over. It's all over. Short delivery on off, Sammy whacks it over midwicket for a massive six to end this game.
18.2
Sohail Khan to Sammy, no run, bouncer on middle, Sammy gets underneath it
18.1
Sohail Khan to Hodge, 1 run, full outside off, drilled to mid-off with extraordinary power. Bopara does well.
 

What an innings this has been from Brad Hodge.

Adeel Ashraf: "Hodge is like a fine wine. He get better with age. The best is yet to come"
