END OF OVER:
20 | 3 Runs | KK: 161/9 | RR: 8.05

  • Usman Shinwari1 (2b)
  • Imad Wasim13 (15b)
  • Rumman Raees4-0-30-1
  • Faheem Ashraf4-0-30-2

8.40pm From 102 for 1, Karachi manage only 60 off the final ten. A remarkable comeback from the defending champions. We know which side will be happier at the break, but can Karachi come out of their collapso and defend this score? Runs on the board still count for something.

Karachi's 78 for 0, in the first six overs was the PSL's joint-highest Powerplay score, by the way. That seems such a long time back. Musa, Faheem, Shadab, Sami and Rumman were excellent. Be back in 10 minutes with the chase.

JK: "Momentum is so important. A boundary of the last ball (even though it would not have changed the score dramatically) can lift up the team coming to ball but Karachi didn't get a boundary in last 3-4 overs."
