So that's it from us today. We will be back with the Playoffs action from the PSL soon. We hope you enjoyed today's high-octane clash. It is time for me, Sourya Chowdhury, to bid you goodnight on behalf of me and my fellow commentator Anirudh Modi and our scorer/statistician Paras Yadav. See you soon.
Mohammed Rizwan (Player of the Match and Multan Sultans captain): "Very happy the way we have been playing and we are taking it one game at a time. We had decided that we will bat first if we win the toss. It got a bit tricky in the middle and we just focused on getting the runs, Iftikhar also finished very well after we got the runs. We think about our combinations on the situation of the game and the opponent. Our team keeps on changing and we think about the best XI for the day. Till the end there was something to play for, like we had to win this one to play in the Qualifier. Now we will give our best in the next game."
Player of the Match: Mohammed Rizwan
Superpower of the Match: David Willey
Energetic batter of the match: Johnson Charles
Moment of the Match: Yasir Khan
Rilee Rossouw (Quetta Gladiators Captain): "Our batting fell off once again, our bowlers did very well and were exceptional. Bottomline is I need to start scoring runs and the team follow, this is something I need to address. I've been in this situation before and I've got myself out, hopefully it works out in the Playoffs. We were just focused on playing good cricket and that will be our focus through the next 3 games and win the cup."
Usama Mir: "It's a great achievement for me to be the highest wicket taker. Credit to the team management and the skipper for giving me a lot of confidence. We all knew the conditions were suitable for the spinners, we had to bowl in the right areas. My first over I got hit, and the skipper backed me and then I came back and took the wickets."
12:20am Local Time, 12:50am IST: Sourya: In a battle of big guns, Multan Sultans have demolished Quetta Gladiators by 79 runs.
Defending a score of 185, the Sultans turned on the style with the ball. David Willey, with his pace and swing, and Osama Mir with his impeccable leg-spin, were the pick of the bowlers, both picking up identical figures of 3/22. Abbas Afridi also got two wickets, as the Gladiators were never in the chase at any point of time.
Wickets kept on falling at regular intervals, with the bowlers sticking to the basics with elan and choking the scoring, with captain Mohammed Rizwan handling the bowlers expertly.
Omair Yousuf put up a semblance of fight with 37 off 25, but it was never going to be enough as the Gladiators got all out for 106, the lowest total so far in this season's PSL.
Earlier, after being put into bat first, the Multan Sultans reached an above-par score of 185/4 after making a relatively slow start. The loss of Yasir Shah early, meant skipper Mohammed Rizwan and Usman Khan (21 off 23), had to rebuild the innings.
But after Abrar Ahmed had clean bowled the latter, Johnson Charles joined Rizwan in the middle, and the two put up a fiery partnership. Rizwan used his reach and hand-eye coordination to great effect, making 69 (47). And after he got out, Charles began a rampage, in the end making 53 off 29, hitting some towering sixes.
Iftikhar Ahmed made some quick runs at the end. Mohammad Amir got two wickets but was expensive, conceding 40 off his four overs.
A great win that ensures the Sultans will be part of the first Qualifier. The Gladiators will have to play the Eliminator when the Playoffs begin.
