Right then! That's all from this Eliminator! Peshawar have set up a date with Multan for the coveted trophy. Islamabad will be thoroughly disappointed as they were top of the table at the end of the League stage. The Final will be played on Thursday, 24th June 2021 at 2000 local (1600 GMT). Do join us for the same. Cheers and take care!
Wahab Riaz, the Peshawar skipper, says that he thanks God, fans, sponsors and all the families for supporting them. Adds that it is a great feeling to reach the Final. Goes onto say that what happened in the last match happened and they needed to adapt. Goes onto say that he was saving himself for the later overs and credits all the bowlers for doing a good job. Tells that it was a good batting performance. States that there is no fear about the Final and the pressure is on Multan. States that he is a demanding captain but the players deserve a day off.
Hazratullah Zazai is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH, he says that he wants to thank God for his performance. Adds that it was very important for him to perform in a pressure situation. Adds that the wicket was a little difficult to bat on so he decided to take his time and then tee off at the right time.
Shadab Khan, the Islamabad United skipper, says that they didn't have momentum in the last couple of days. Adds that they didn't handle pressure as well as some of the other teams did. About Zazai, Shadab says that if they had held on to his catch, then the game might have been different but such is the game of cricket. Says that they performed well in this season but failed to do so in pressure situations. Finishes by saying to their fans that they will come back stronger next year.
What went wrong with Islamabad United? They were the table-toppers after the end of the League stage but they have come down heavily in the Playoffs. They have crashed out of the tournament in the most unexpected way. Coming to this game and innings, they were off to a rocky start in the first over as Hasan Ali conceded 15 runs but picked up a wicket. They kept it tight and their plan to bowl it outside off was working well before it all went awry after the 10th over. They were taken to the cleaners and they were brutally hammered by Hazaratullah Zazai, Jonathan Wells and Shoaib Malik. Overall, it was a poor bowling performance. Stay tuned for the Presentation ceremony!
What a win for Peshawar Zalmi! They have chased down 175 with relative ease and that is a message to Multan Sultans that Peshawar Zalmi is a force to be reckoned with. They have absolutely hammered the bowlers out of the park and this is a dominating victory. Peshawar started off well, taking 15 in the first over before losing Kamran Akmal. Hazratullah Zazai and Jonathan Wells had other plans as they started slowly, built their innings. Zazai struggled for a bit but once they settled in, they went bonkers and took them close to victory. Zazai fell after a fine knock but Shoaib Malik came out with a mission. He got going from ball one and hit 32 in just 10 balls to take Peshawar home with 19 balls to spare.

Excellent running by Shoaib Malik! Length ball, around off. Jonathan Wells pushes it towards long on. The fielder is on the ropes so Malik decides to sprint back for the second. There is a throw made at the keeper's end but it doesn't hit. They think about taking the extra run due to the overthrow but decide against it in the end.

Mohammad Wasim To Hazratullah Zazai OUT!
OUT! Dragged on! The blade sends the ball out of the stadium and the same blade sends the ball back on the stumps for Zazai! Slower length ball, around off. Zazai gets the inside edge as he looks to hammer it to the leg side and the ball goes on to hit the off pole. But he has done his job for his team.

SIX! Oh, my word! What a way to get to your 50! The expression of Darren Sammy in the Peshawar Zalmi says it all! Back of a length, outside off. You guessed it right, Zazai drags it across and pulls it deep over the wide long on fence.

Length ball, on off. Jonathan Wells is hit on the pads as he looks to work it to the leg side. Hasan Ali puts in an appeal for LBW, but it looks to be too high. A leg bye is taken as the ball rolls away.
