What have we just witnessed? Drama, ebbs and flows, and another PSL classic! The crowd got their money's worth with a thriller on Friday night. In the end, Peshawar Zalmi eked out a win, but it wasn't very convincing. The result could have been different had Iftikhar spent more time on the crease and Malan continued for a little longer. Peshawar applied the squeeze with some timely wickets and the chase got derailed. Naveen then held his nerve in the final over in the tug of war. Peshawar got the runs they hoped to get at the toss. It was heartening to see debutant leg-spinner Arif Yaqoob strutting his stuff in a tense game. Luke Wood was the pick of the bowlers and barely bowled any looseners; he got the key wicket of Mohammad Rizwan but Multan didn't give up and strung small partnerships. This will be a morale-boosting win for Peshawar, who showed a massive improvement today. That's it from tonight. See you tomorrow as action comes thick and fast in PSL. For now, it's goodbye and goodnight from Rvel Zahid

Cricfan: "Regarding the catch at 16.6, doesn't law 33.2.1 say that one has to ground inside the boundary rope and then catch in order to complete the catch. Could you confirm?" That is correct. 33.2.1 A catch will be fair only if, in every case either the ball, at any time or any fielder in contact with the ball, is not grounded beyond the boundary before the catch is completed.

Law 19.5.2: "A fielder who is not in contact with the ground is considered to be grounded beyond the boundary if his/her final contact with the ground, before his/her first contact with the ball after it has been delivered by the bowler, was not entirely within the boundary."

Hani: "The wicket at 16.6 was the turning point, as it turned a potential six into a wicket" Controversial decision for sure

Infernos: "Check the crucinfo win probability man it match swayed like a pendulum...what a game of cricket!!!"

Ahmed: "That decision completely ruined the game for me as a Multan fan. Completely unfair. Also begs the question why the frames are so distinct and why there can't be a camera with a higher frame rate"

Awais: "This PSL has produced some some scintillating thrillers. What a game we've had! "
