On a pitch that was not as free-scoring as most shows so far this season, Islamabad United posted 177, thanks to several cameos from the top order.
At the time, it looked like Karachi Kings might have an opportunity to nail it down, but United and Kings in their own self-destructive spirit had other ideas.
Top of the run-out and a couple of regular wickets meant the Kings were swiftly out of competition, before the undisputed player of the tournament, Shadab Khan, stepped in with the ball to rip a heart out of the middle order.
His 4 for 15 took insult to injury, and Karachi Kings finished with 135.
For only the second time in 38, United won the toss and opted to bat, taking advantage of the recent trend of defending scores.
Chris Jordan Opening The First Over :-
Imad Wasim was dismissed for 12 at the hands of Sterling in the first over and Chris Jordan’s first over was received by the openers with 16 runs. By the time Imad returned to dismiss Hales, United had added 66 runs in 7.3 overs.
Sterling fell soon thereafter and the bowlers took control of the game for a while. Shadab, however, was playing a pleasant short inning, finding regular boundaries to keep the run rate up, while Colin Munro was competing at the other end.
A fine running, tumbling catch from Babar Azam – he would once again shine with a sensational grab to see the end of Asif Ali – brought an end to Shadab’s knock, but true to the brand, United just kept swinging.
Another over from Jordan on death and some crunching drives from Azam Khan scored 25 runs in the last two overs, and it saw United level up the aggregate.
The chase began disastrously for the Kings, with a mix between Azam and Sharjeel running out later in the second over. Faheem Ashraf, Mohammad Wasim, Mubasir Ahmed, and Waqas Maqsood bowled alternately during the powerplay.
But each held its own on the Kings’ batsmen, who could only manage 21 runs in the first five overs. By this time, a colored Babar had been cleared by Mohammad Wasim, and the asking rate had risen to above 10.
The Promoted To Five :-
Imad Wasim, who had been promoted to five, was involving in another catastrophic Kings run. With Sahibzada Farhan finally culminating in him.
There was a flight that deceiving Lewis Gregory, who was mistaken for Imad and Jordan. And it was a full flating ball to trap Mohamed Taha in front. It was a brief Shadab show, with Karachi playing the sidekick’s background.

There was mild entertainment for the home crowd when Mohammad Nabi and Umaid Asif starving to death. As they do when there is no pressure as everything goes to waste anyway.
Mohammad Wasim was bundling out for 20 in and over. And Nabi playing an unbeaten 47 off 28 balls to see the game go, but all that was providing was the illusion of rivalry in a game in which was very less.
