LAHORE – The final match of the Pakistan Super League left a meme fest on social media as Lahore Qalandars won their first PSL title after outclassing high flying Multan Sultans.
February 27 was a night to remember for Lahorites as their beloved Qalandars finally bag the first-ever Pakistan Super League title and erased the pain of years of failure.
In the hi-octane clash of the seventh edition, Qalandars stumbled in the beginning and it was apparently the worst possible start in such a crucial encounter. Top batsmen including Fakhar Zaman, Abdullah Shafique, Zeeshan Ashraf were gone in the powerplay as table topper kept the Afridi-led team’s batters under pressure.
However, ‘Professor’, Mohammad Hafeez redeemed himself as he rescued franchise fluttering innings from 25 for 3 to help them on their way to a substantial 180. Harry Brook smashed a 22-ball 41 and David Wiese an 8-ball 28 added the much-needed points as Lahore’s Gaddafi stadium was a houseful.
Things changed in the 4th over of the second innings when seasoned player Hafeez took Rizwan’s wicket and the defending champions then started losing wickets at regular intervals.
