6.42 pm: The match is not yet over but it has twisted and turned its way to a Super Over. Karachi had the chase in control then they stumbled badly. Then Multan had it in their grasp but Imad Wasim has somehow pulled off a Super Over.

Mohammad Ilyas to Imad Wasim, FOUR, finishes with a four to get a Super Over. Imad moves waaay across to be on a seventh stump line and Ilyas bowls it there. He plays a wonderful pick up off his legs backward square leg and finds the boundary to tie the scores.

Mohammad Ilyas to Imad Wasim, no run, dot ball as Imad lets it go! He went for the wide outside off one and I think he's lucky to get away with it. The ball was cutting across the tram line as it passed the batsman!

Mohammad Ilyas to Waqas Maqsood, 1 run, full outside off and he nails the shot, carves it over extra cover for a single

6 off 3. They can't afford a dot ball at all.

1
Mohammad Ilyas to Imad Wasim, 1 run, full outside off, he was moving across and uses wrists again to try to seep it through midwicket. He's looking for two but will have to settle for one

7 off 4. Imad needs to hit a boundary now. I don't think he can afford to take a single. Long-off is back. Fine leg is up.

Mohammad Ilyas to Mohammad Amir, OUT, straight down deep midwicket's throat! but it has brought Imad back on strike. Amir went for the glory shot, short ball dug into the pitch, not enough pace on it, Amir goes back to pull. Doesn't get a good enough hit and picks out the fielder. But the batsmen have crossed

Mohammad Ilyas to Mohammad Amir, no run, superb start by the bowler. A bouncer that is on target, has Amir ducking into it and holding up his bat to fend at it. Takes the helmet I think on the way to the keeper

7 for the win. 6 for the Super Over. Amir to face

END OF OVER:
19 | 12 Runs 1 Wkt | KK: 135/7 (7 runs required from 6 balls, RR: 7.10, RRR: 7.00)

Sohail Tanvir to Imad Wasim, FOUR, length ball outside off, and he threads the gap between point and short third man with a finely timed boundary

Sohail Tanvir to Mohammad Amir, 1 run, backs away and punches this over the bowler's head down the ground. Not great connection as it bounces to long-off

Sohail Tanvir to Mohammad Amir, no run, back of a length outside off, he makes room to try and swing at it but misses

Sohail Tanvir to Imad Wasim, SIX, stunning. Pressure building and Imad just goes back deep and uses wrists and bottom hand to flick this from outside off to over deep midwicket

Sohail Tanvir to Parnell, OUT, direct hit from point and Parnell is run out. That was strange running from Parnell, he was just jogging. Good length ball outside off, nicely cut but straight to point. Imad has called him through for the single - right call I think since he needs to be on strike. Parnell just jogs across. The fielder takes aim and shatters the stumps with Parnell yards short.

WD Parnell run out 1 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 33.33

And just like that, Karachi need 19 off the last two overs. Tanvir will bowl one of them. Who will bowl the last one? Irfan has an over, Ilyas too. But has to be Tanvir for this one you would think. Best bowler bowls the 19th in a close game. And it is indeed Tanvir.

END OF OVER:

Imran Tahir to Parnell, no run, stump to stump, length ball, punched to mid-off

Wayne Parnell walks into a pressure cooker of a situation. Multan favourites now you would think

Imran Tahir to Rutherford, OUT, he's got him!. The change of angle, the mind games, they work. Tossed up wide outside off, tempting Rutherford into going for the big drive. He gets a thin, but audible, snick and the keeper does well to latch on.

SE Rutherford c †Zeeshan Ashraf b Imran Tahir 1 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 33.33

Tahir now going around the wicket

Sohail Tanvir to Rutherford, no run, length outside off, punched to point

Sherfane Rutherford. He spent the last two months warming the bench, but seeing Mumbai Indians win their fifth IPL. Karachi need some of that effect to rub off

16.5
W
Sohail Tanvir to Walton, OUT, caught at long-on. Full ball on the stumps, he made some room to loft this straight. Doesn't get it quite of the middle and he can only pick out long-on. Not perhaps the best choice of shot when you need about a run a ball

CAK Walton c Lyth b Sohail Tanvir 2 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 100.00

Sohail Tanvir to Walton, 2 runs, length ball on leg stump, comes nicely inside the line and clips it off his pads through square leg

25 off 21 needed, and Walton is the new man in. Still in Karachi's control, unless Multan can cause some nerves fluttering.

W
Sohail Tanvir to Babar Azam, OUT, caught behind. There might be a twist yet. Babar was giving himself room to thrash this through the offside, but Tanvir had bowled this much straighter, and he gets bounce too. Ended up too close to Babar and bouncing a tad more than he expected, and he edges it through to the keeper

Babar Azam c †Zeeshan Ashraf b Sohail Tanvir 65 (53b 5x4 2x6) SR: 122.64
