Earlier, all-rounder Hafeez’s unbeaten 98 helped Lahore put up a respectable total against Islamabad. Lahore posted 182 runs on the scoreboard for the loss of six wickets. Lahore, who lost their first match to Multan Sultans at the same venue on Friday, were looking for their maiden victory in the tournament. They got off to a fiery start as opener Fakhar Zaman (33) struck a boundary on the very first ball of the innings. Zaman’s knock from 26 balls included four boundaries. Zaman was supported by Chris Lynn (11), who was dismissed in the third over. Lynn was replaced by Hafeez, who turned into a run machine for his team, with seven sixes and seven boundaries. Islamabad’s Faheem Ashraf dismissed Wiese and Samit Patel for 19 and 10 respectively to ensure none would build a solid partnership with Hafeez.
Brief scores:
Islamabad United 183 for 9 (Shadab Khan 52, Muhammad Musa 17 not out, Shaheen Shah Afridi 4-18) beat Lahore Qalandars 182 for 6 (Mohammad Hafeez 98 not out, Faheem Ashraf 2-42, Shadab Khan 2-14) by one wicket.
