Peshawar Zalmi batsman Shoaib Malik pulls stylishly against Lahore Qalandars during their PSL 2022 match at Gaddafi Stadium on Monday. LAHORE: Veteran all-rounder Shoaib Malik sparkled with bat as Peshawar Zalmi scored Super-Over victory against Lahore Qalandars in the last league match of the seventh edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL) at Gaddafi Stadium here on Monday night. Peshawar had set a 159-run target for Lahore, who fell a run short and forced the match to a Super-Over after their skipper Shaheen Shah Afridi smashed 22 runs — three sixes and a four — in the last over. When Lahore batted in the Super-Over, they handed a six-run target to Peshawar, courtesy of skipper Wahab Riaz’s sensational bowling.

And he proved to be the right man for the right job, as he smashed two fours to Shaheen and sailed his team to victory. Chasing victory target of 159, Lahore’s batting line-up failed to deliver and tied the match at 158 for the loss of eight wickets. Fakhar Zaman went out for a golden duck in the first ball of the match. Mohammad Hafeez was the only Lahore batsman who performed and scored 49 runs off 44 balls. Kamran Ghulam made 25. After failure of his batting line-up, skipper Shaheen took charge and played a brilliant undefeated knock of 39 to take the match to Super-Over.
