Scorer: Binoy George | Commentator: @RvelZahid

So Multan Sultans played with the emotions of their fans and almost botched the chase. They only had to track down 145 but a string of dots in the last couple of overs sent the game to the final over and had there been fewer misfields, the result could have been different. United lost the plot with the bat and that shuffle in the batting order didn't work in their favor. That being said, take no credit away from Mohammad Ali, who made the ball talk and was on top of his skill. He set the tone upfront and other bowlers held their end of the bargain, rallied around him superbly. So that's it from this exhilarating game. Come back tomorrow for the double-header! Until then, it's goodbye and goodnight from Rvel Zahid

Mills to Iftikhar Ahmed, 1 run, Geez! Multan Sultans win after giving a major scare to their fans! Hits a full-length just outside off, he manages to put some bat on it, fielder (Faheem Ashraf) at point charged in and chucks a throw but it's away from the stumps at striker's end, so close to what could have been the first Super Over of PSL!

Meeting underway between Shadab, Mills and some more teammates. Umpire is getting fidgety

Mills to Willey, 1 run, Yorker length tailing in at off, makes room and forces it into the covers, how did Multan took this game down to the wire? Should have been a straightforward chase

Mills to Iftikhar Ahmed, 1 run, Fraction short and slanting across off, hangs back and hammered hard to deep midwicket and Iftikhar is livid with himself, he thought it was in his arc and should have gone out of the park

Mills to Willey, 1 run, Direct hit at non-striker would have been curtains, Shadab out of all fielders misses the target! Slapped on the rise to mid-off and they get a scampered single

Manthan Jain: "Have been following many T20 leagues but not often saw bowlers bowling scorching Yorkers and searing hard lengths like this or this many number of times as in psl ........"

Mills to Willey, no run, Shortish and cramping him for room as he steps towards the on side, fends it on the rise to cover, 4 off 5

Naseem Shah to Iftikhar Ahmed, 2 runs, Good length, nips back at middle, whangs it away off his pads into the empty spaces at deep midwicket and the couple hares for the second, makes it comfortably in the end, just one hit away from win
