Mohammad Ali to Hunain Shah
ISLAMABAD UNITED ARE PSL 2024 CHAMPIONS! Takes a leaf out of Naseem Shah's book and dabs it elegantly between the gap at backward point and short third, hits the winning runs and the entire Islamabad United squad runs to invade the pitch. Contrasting emotions, Tears of joy and tears of pain in one frame

Mohammad Ali to Naseem Shah
Crazy scenes out there! Oh my word! What is happening out there? He bowls a nasty snorter of a bouncer on middle, he goes for the pull looking a bit ungainly and tickles it to Rizwan, umpire raises his finger in agreement. Yes, there is a thick deflection on the ultra-edge. We'll have to wait more to find out who's the champion. Props to Mohammad Ali for fighting tooth and nail and refusing to give him. Intelligent bowling. Super over blaring between my ears. Anything can happen!

Mohammad Ali to Imad Wasim
Round the wicket, back of a length, roaring back from outside off, bunted to short cover,, hustles and bustles to pinch a run, Ali pings a throw at non-striker's end, Imad makes it just in the nick of time. Crrucial run! Scores are level!

Mohammad Ali to Naseem Shah
Hard length, slanting in at middle, clipped calmly to short midwicket and brings the danger man on crease, that's what Imad wanted, just a hit away from their another title!

Mohammad Ali to Naseem Shah
Misses the yorker by a fraction and that is enough for Naseem to find a boundary, flicks it with zen-like calm through the gap at midwicket, excellent timing but the key here is waiting for the ball till the last second so he can place it into the gap. Oh, no,no,no, no, Mohammad Ali, what have you done? Looks like it's a no-ball, very close call for third umpire. Okay, so emotions getting better of me as well, well he got something behind the line, not a no-ball, saved by the barest of margins, should thank third umpire if he gets United over the line. We have a pause, Imad is having a chat with Ahsan Raza

Mohammad Ali to Imad Wasim
Stunning yorker dipping in at middle from round the wicket, slaughtered out to deep midwicket, Imad is fuming at Naseem, he wanted the strike, wanted the second, Naseem tells him to calm down, fist bump, both gathering their thoughts, oh the tension, the drama....have you got any nails left? It's all about nerves from here

Jordan to Imad Wasim
Good length and across off-stump, defends to mid-off and takes a scampered single. Fittingly going down the wire, fans getting their money's worth in the stands

Bowls a searing toe-crusher and beats his flick, that's a good delivery, need to finish the over well

Jordan to Naseem Shah
Tad short on a teasing off-stump line, he still manages to squirts it down to point and hurtles down the track for a quick single, amazing awareness, Naseem is not new to these pressure-cooker situations, international experience coming handy

Jordan to Imad Wasim
Slammed in a full-bunger just outside off, slapped to sweeper cover, just 10 more required. The tension on the field is palpable, can be sliced with a knife

Jordan to Imad Wasim
And another one! Streaky but they all count, fuller and swirling away from fifth stump, throws his bat at it beats short third, it sped away for four. Fortuitous!

Jordan to Imad Wasim
Touch too full and offers width, flashes a cut past backward point and it has got enough legs to reach the fence. Magnificent shot!

Huge turn from middle to leg, surprised him with the turn, stays deep and calms it down at short cover

Iftikhar to Naseem Shah
Swatted leg-side, hasn't got all of it. Man in the deep covers a lot of ground and gathers it quickly

Iftikhar to Naseem Shah
Lobbed up a wide yorker, spanked away to deep cover-point, Abbas Afridi with a despairing dive and flicks the ball inside the rope, cushion was disturbed, it's a four. The game just keeps swinging like a pendulum

Zips it in quicker, flatter and not giving room, can only nudge it back to the bowler

Iftikhar to Faheem
Iftikhar, you beauty! Pandemonium has broken loose Round the wicket, tossed up on middle, leading edge balloons up and Iftikhar leaps full-stretch to pocket it in his second attempt. It's a tug of war for that coveted Orion trophy, nobody wants to give up.
