5.45pm: So these two will meet again in the first eliminator next week. Islamabad United could have moved up to second with victory, but instead stay third, a place ahead of Zalmi. It will be Multan Sultans and Lahore Qalandars who contest Wednesday's qualifier, with United and Zalmi playing off on Thursday to face the loser of that clash. United made a real hash of their chase here, barely getting a partnership together until Faheem Ashraf and Mohammad Wasim swindled 55 off 24 to take the game into the final over. It wasn't to be, as 29-year-old Khurram Shahzad, playing only his third T20, made a name for himself. Anyway, we're not quite done for the day, with the evening match between Lahore Qalandars and Karachi Kings - top against bottom - to come. Thanks for your comments today, see you again in the knockouts. Bye!

Farooqi is last man in

"The only thing that was left in this Rawalpindi week of runs was 50 runs being chased off the last 3 overs," chirps Afeef

Khurram Shahzad, who bowled the first over and none since, will attempt to close out the win for Zalmi

IU need 21 from six, just beyond Ashraf's heroics the other night. Forecaster syas they are a 7% shot - which would be good enough for Lloyd Christmas
