That's it from the first match of the PSL tonight, as Thilak, Shashank and me Himanshu bid you goodbye. But don't forget that the action goes on, with the Lahore Qalandars playing the Peshawar Zalmi in just a while. See you all, and take care, stay safe.

Here's the winning captain Mohammad Rizwan: "Every team tries to win, and things like the toss and the weather aren't in your hands. [Three pacers and only one spinner?] We planned according to the pitch, and would keep planning that way."

Rilee Rossouw is the player of the match: "Plan was to play brave cricket as discussed in the team, and I did that."

Fawad Tariq: "Reply to Osman Mazhar comment: How can Babar Azam not be a a T20 opening batsman when he actually hits 4 sizes and 5 fours and the rest of the team with big hitters smashed 3 sixes and only 6 fours."

Sahan: "" Babar and Sharjeel were outstanding" ???? Really Wasim? Really?"

Fatir Hussain: "Babar Azam - 85 off 63 ballsThe Rest - 79 off 57 ballsand yet, we blame the former"

Yasir : "Couldn't make sense when international aggressive opener Martin guptill in team batting at 3"

Here's Imad Wasim, the Kings captain: "They bowled really well, and we were slow to start off. Babar and Sharjeel were outstanding. There is no harm in losing a game if you play hard enough. The powerplay was the key for both teams, and they scored 60-odd there."

9pm So the Sultans take the game. It seemed 176 would not be enough, especially since they were headed for 200 once. But that late flourish from their lower-middle order and some brilliant bowling meant they just had enough. Imran Khan and Imran Tahir applied the choke with the ball, as Babar Azam's 85 wasn't quick enough to ensure a win.
