Islamabad United were on the money, with the ball in hand. They had the opposition by the scruff of the neck at 127/9, although they just lifted their foot a bit in the fag end, Iftikhar Ahmed cashed in with a valuable 32 runs to put some impetus to the scoreboard of Multan Sultans. Islamabad United might feel they should've gotten the final wicket early, to release them from the nail-biting affair in the second innings. They could have just cruised over the victory line if the target was under 140.

Multan Sultans put in a solid performance with the ball in hand. They posted an under-par total on this wicket, but eventually made it look like an above-par score, by some good bowling which made them take this game down to the wire. Although, they just could not take it to the Super Over. It was Khushdil Shah who turned up the heat for them with the ball in hand. He picked up the first two wickets and broke the backbone of the opposition. Iftikhar Ahmed then worked his magic to get rid of Shadab Khan cheaply, but could not be more effective in the middle overs. Usama Mir also picked up just a wicket, and surely his skipper expects more from him. Mohammad Ali picked up a wicket in the final over, but could not defend the runs in the final over.

Hunain Shah came in to face the final delivery, but he made sure to hold his nerves. Found the gap and took the winning run, which converted into a victory lap in the blink of an eye. The pendulum swung in favour of both the teams and quite regularly, although it is Islamabad United that come out on top. Islamabad United got off to a promising start, with their openers setting the tone with a 26-run partnership. They were looking class apart, although lost a wicket against the run of play. Agha Salman then came out but could not stick around for long. Eventually, Martin Guptill and Azam Khan decided to up the ante, when they lost three wickets in quick succession. They stitched a 47-run stand effortlessly, and they were in cruise control mode, although somehow they got derailed once again through a miscommunication which got the better of Martin Guptill. Azam Khan soon allowed the pressure to get the better of him. Then came a brisk stand of 30 runs off 16 deliveries between Imad Wasim and Naseem Shah which made sure Islamabad United never fall way behind in this run chase.

GAME OVER! What a match! Islamabad United becomes the first ever team in the history of Pakistan Super League to lift the trophy three times. Phew! What a humdinger of a contest. Worthy of a final for sure. Each and every cricket fan was treated here. We usually don't see matches on a Monday night with such high stakes, although it exceeded plenty of expectations for sure.

Hunain Shah comes in to face the final delivery. ONE RUN NEEDED. A wicket or a dot ball. We are in for Super Over.

A mini-conference happeing between the skipper and bowler. Mohammad Ali needs to uproot the stumps here, for a huge momentum shift. 1 run needed in 2 balls.

Imad Wasim and the umpire having a word now. Just calming things down here, he might still be asking about that No Ball which isn't given.

Naseem Shah walks out with the blade now.
