DUBAI – Lahore Qalandars defeated mighty Karachi Kings in a super over in the 24th match of the Pakistan Super League’s third edition at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
Babar Azam and Lendl Simmons scored half-centuries helped Karachi to take their team a mammoth total against Lahore Qalandars.
In reply, the McCullum-led team levelled the score on the last delivery of the innings, taking the game into the tournament’s second super over.
Qalandars’ top-order batsman Agha Salman contributed with his 50 off 45, but it was the short fiery blitz by Sohail Akhtar which changed the game as his 15 runs off eight balls, including a six and a boundary brought the unthinkable into reality.
