That's it from this entertaining contest. The next match is coming your way shortly at 8 pm IST (2.30 pm GMT) and it is the clash between Karachi Kings and Quetta Gladiators. Do switch tabs and join us shortly for all the action. Cheers!
Mohammad Rizwan, the winning captain of Multan Sultans, says that they planned the chase well and concentrated on running between the wickets. Adds that he has been doing a similar job opening for Pakistan with Babar Azam. Tells that they planned to not give wickets to Rashid Khan who was getting some grip.
Shaheen Afridi, the captain of Lahore Qalandars, says that it was a great game and credits Shan Masood and Mohammad Rizwan for their outstanding batting. Feels that they need to improve their fielding and focus on bowling more yorkers.
SHAN MASOOD IS THE PLAYER OF THE MATCH! Says that the basics matter in every game and shares that they faced a similar situation in one of the practice games against Zalmi. Tells that they gave respect to the class bowlers upfront and once set, they went after the bowlers. On his running between the wickets with Mohammad Rizwan, Shan smiles and terms it a proper lung test.
Presentation time...
In the game dominated by the batsmen, Shaheen Afridi bowled a stupendous 19th over, in which, he picked up two wickets and more importantly conceded only a run. With 16 runs needed off the last over, Lahore appeared to be the favourites but Khushdil Shah spoiled their party with his timely cameo. Two wins in two games for Multan Sultans and they have started their title defense in style.
We witnessed some great batting in this match! Fakhar Zaman started it all and his partnership with Abdullah Shafique set the tone for Lahore Qalandars. They raced away with a massive score on the board but their bowlers failed to turn up. Mohammad Rizwan and Shan Masood were in belligerent form. The former, as usual, was fluent from the word go while the latter was a bit fidgety to start with. However, Shan Masood quickly got some momentum going into his innings and smashed a 50-ball 83. The 150-run stand for the opening wicket always kept Multan Sultans on top in the chase but once Rizwan was dismissed in the 17th over, Lahore Qalandars got a sniff.
Khushdil Shah has done it! The pressure was mounting but he showed zero nerves and smashed a 4-ball 18 to steer Multan Sultans over the line. What a cracking game, yet another high-scoring humdinger. This season of the Pakistan Super League is up and running in style.

Shaheen Afridi To Tim David
Whoa. What happened there? The ball hits the stumps but the bails are still in place! A yorker, right on the off pole. David fails to keep it out and the ball clips the off pole. The bails light up but they come back down to stay in place! Shaheen Afridi cannot believe it! He goes up to check and dislodges one of the bails with his hand. He has a surprised look on his face as he returns to his mark.

OUT! TIMBER! Rashid provides the breakthrough and a little opening to his team. A well-disguised googly, landing full around middle and turning away, Shan Masood goes down one knee to smoke it over the leg side but it spins away from his bat and shatters the stumps behind. Not much celebration from Lahore Qalandars, they want wickets in a heap to get back in the game. Shan Masood walks back to a great ovation. Fantastic knock by him.

Such has been the dominance from Shan Masood and Mohammad Rizwan. 88 in 54 should be a walk in the park if these two bat till the end. Haris Rauf is brought back for his second.

Haris Rauf To Mohammad Rizwan
FOUR! Oh, that spoils the over! Rauf ends up bowling this too full, on middle. Rizwan nicely punches it straight down the ground. The chase from the man at mid on is in vain. Multan Sultans are 66 for 0 at the end of the Powerplay, Lahore Qalandars were 67/0. Going neck and neck. 141 needed in 14 overs now.

Samit Patel To Mohammad Rizwan
RIZWAN IS SAFE! Flatter one, short and wide outside off, Rizwan again goes down low to play the sweep shot but misses. Dunk collects the ball and breaks the stumps. He appeals and it's referred upstairs. Rizwan's back leg is found to be on the line. Touch and go. The third umpire is having a zoomed view. A very difficult decision to make. Is the foot on the line or dragging back? Will Rizwan get the benefit of the doubt? The third umpire eventually takes a call and flashes NOT OUT on the giant screen. That's the right call, nothing was conclusive in the replays.
Is that a stumping? Mohammad Rizwan is the man in question. This looks close. The third umpire is asking for various angles as the bails are dislodged when Rizwan tries to drag his foot back in. His foot could be on the crease here. NOT OUT says the third umpire in the end!

Samit Patel To Mohammad Rizwan
FOUR! Again the over begins with a boundary and pressure straightaway on Samit. Tossed up, around middle, Mohammad Rizwan sits down on one knee and sweeps it sweetly behind square leg for a boundary.
Change. Samit Patel is brought on inside the Powerplay.

Zaman Khan To Shan Masood
A touch short and around off, Masood cuts it from the back foot and it races away to deep point. There is protection now and hence only a run.

FOUR! That's whacked away as well, this time just behind square. Short and wide outside off, Masood waits on the back foot and smacks it through point. Boundaries are flooding.

Zaman Khan To Shan Masood
Saved by the 12th man, i.e. stumps at the other end. On a length and around middle, Masood drives it straight back and the ball goes on to smash the wickets at the other end. Dot ball to finish the second over, this has been a quiet start from the defending champions.

A corker of a yorker, right on the money, around middle, Rizwan plays it equally well and digs it out back to the bowler. Excellent cricket all around.

Zaman Khan To Shan Masood
Play and a miss! Shan Masood is struggling big time. Zaman Khan serves it on a length outside off and takes it away with the movement. Masood's front foot goes nowhere as he pokes at it and misses.
Who will start from the other end? Zaman it is. Not Fakhar Zaman though, Zaman Khan is his name!

Shaheen Afridi To Shan Masood
Beaten all ends up! Not sure what Shan Masood is trying to do. He walks down the track and pushes inside the line of a length ball. Gets beaten. Rizwan has a word with his partner, perhaps telling him to hold his horses.

Shaheen Afridi To Mohammad Rizwan
Spears it in, very full and around leg, Mohammad Rizwan falls across a bit in his stance and just about keeps it out in the gap at square leg for a single. Shaheen Afridi exchanges a smile with Rizwan.

Beauty! Afridi goes full and close to off, shaping away again, Masood tries to squeeze it out but it beats the outside edge. A stifled appeal for a caught behind but nothing doing.
