Code:
0.1  Dwayne Bravo to Kumar Sangakkara, Oh my, he has absolutely hammered that down the ground! That'll be one of the flattest sixes you'll ever see!   (6) 
0.2  Dwayne Bravo to Kumar Sangakkara, Buffet bowling, the batsman helps himself to four more.  (4) 
0.3  Dwayne Bravo to Kumar Sangakkara, Pah, that was a useless shot! I've seen better batters in my fridge! No run.  (0) 
0.4  Dwayne Bravo to Kumar Sangakkara, Leg Byes, a couple there.  (2) 
0.5  Dwayne Bravo to Ahmed Shehzad, Good short ball, the batsman is caught off guard and top edges it high in the air! The keeper is after it...he's runs hard...and the ball lands just after him! He drops a glove and hurls the ball in to keep the batsman to just a single.  (1) 
0.6  Dwayne Bravo to Kumar Sangakkara, Reverse sweep, and he's missed completely! Boy that's humiliating!

1.3  Hasan Ali to Ahmed Shehzad, Good ball, he goes for the cut, it's too close to cut, he's inside edged it, and it misses the stumps by a whisker! The keeper tidies up and there is no run. Phew that was close.   (0) 
1.4  Hasan Ali to Ahmed Shehzad, Good slower ball, the batsman doesn't pick it up. Still gets a single though.  (1) 
1.5  Hasan Ali to Sohaib Maqsood, And the batsman pulls out the sweep shot! Takes a lot of skill to play that, and he has enough to place it for two.  (2) 
1.6  Hasan Ali to Sohaib Maqsood, Goes for a straight drive, but inside edges it into his legs and it ricochets onto the stumps! The batsman is not happy!

Multan Sultans' decision to bat first after winning the toss was proven right as they posted an imposing total on a bowler-friendly pitch like this. Shoaib Malik's fifty was the backbone of the innings for Multan Sultans, and Kieron Pollard's blitzy finish, the highlight. Hasan Ali of Peshawar Zalmi picked three wickets, but was pretty expensive. Dwayne Bravo, even more so.

0.5  Sohail Tanvir to Dwayne Smith, Good short ball, the batsman is caught off guard and top edges it high in the air! The keeper is after it...he's runs hard...and the ball lands just after him! He drops a glove and hurls the ball in to keep the batsman to just a single.  (1)

19.1  Sohail Tanvir to Khushdil Shah, Very well bowled.  (0) 
19.2  Sohail Tanvir to Khushdil Shah, Lofted drive, falls into the gap. The ball gets stuck in the outfield meaning the batsmen get only two.  (2) 
19.3  Sohail Tanvir to Khushdil Shah, Good shot, they're running hard, the throw comes in, but they've managed a comfortable two.  (2) 
19.4  Sohail Tanvir to Khushdil Shah, And the batsman unveils the sweep shot, and it's done beautifully too! Four more!  (4) 
19.5  Sohail Tanvir to Khushdil Shah, He walks across his stumps trying to paddle it away, but misses it. And the keeper's appealing! There was a sound as the ball passed the batsman, and the umpire is unmoved. Replays show it was off the pad. Good call.  (0) 
19.6  Sohail Tanvir to Khushdil Shah, And time for the reverse-sweep! Quite a daring and often needless shot if you ask me, but the batsman pulls it off well enough to get two more.  (2)

Despite going for an economy of above eight runs per-over, Junaid Khan had a huge impact on Peshawar Zalmi's chase, dismissing their top-two batsmen quite early in the innings, leaving them under massive pressure. Haris Sohail and Khushdil Shah did successfully rebuild the innings, and narrowed the gap, but Kieron Pollard's death-bowling finished off what Junaid Khan's new-ball spell started.

The decision to play Shahid Afridi as an opener did wonders for Karachi Kings. His aggressive start bundled with a quick, classy Colin Ingram cameo laid the perfect foundation for a big score. And even after Shahid Afridi was bowled by Shane Watson, it did not put the breaks on their innings as they had the talent to back that start up, and so they did. Babar Azam and Lendl Simmons carried the team perfectly during the middle-overs, which was then capped off with a fine cameo from Hasan Mohsin.

Quetta Gladiators' top-order disappointed heavily, especially Kevin Pietersen, who was dismissed for a duck. Considering the target they were chasing, they lost their top-order very cheaply, and from that point onwards, it was fait accompli. Shahid Afridi was the most valuable player for Karachi Kings in this match. Not only did he provide the base for their team while batting, he also bagged three wickets under his name, making himself the player of the match.

Code:
Karachi Kings       195/6 in 20.0 overs. 
Quetta Gladiators   144/9 in 20.0 overs. 

Karachi Kings won by 51 runs

Man of the match: Shahid Afridi (Karachi Kings)

Multan Sultans beat Peshawar Zalmi in the tournament opener

The Pakistan Super League commenced at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium with an opening ceremony which was followed by the opening match of the tournament between the newly formed Multan Sultans and Peshawar Zalmi.

Multan Sultans elected to bat first after having won the coin toss. This decision was proven right, as they piled-up a 174-run total in the end. Ahmed Shehzad and Kumar Sangakkara opened the innings, and started off very aggressively. Even though they were back in the dugout very early, especially Kumar Sangakkara, their quick starts gave Multan Sultans' the base to accelerate and build a grand total on.

Shoaib Malik and Umar Siddiq were the top-scorers for Multan Sultans, they added 55 and 44, respectively. Kieron Pollard played a nice finishing cameo of 20 runs from 9 balls. Peshawar Zalmi could not contain Multan Sultans despite Hasan Ali's 3-fer. Darren Sammy and Dwayne Bravo picked 2 wickets apiece, but the latter was very expensive alongside other bowlers who didn't pick a wicket.

In response, Peshawar Zalmi's top-order was blown away, especially their top-two who fell victim to Junaid Khan. And as a result, the team could never get back into the game despite a solid middle-order partnership that showed resistance by Haris Sohail and Khushdil Shah. The lower-order was looking to score runs at a faster pace, and in doing so, they ended up giving their wickets away to the twenty20 death-bowling specialist, Kieron Pollard. His death-bowling finished what Junaid Khan's new-ball spell started.

The Shahid Afridi Experiment

The defending champions, Quetta Gladiators went up against Karachi Kings in match two of the Pakistan Super League. Just like the first match, this was also played at the cracked pitch of Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai.

Karachi Kings won the toss and elected to bat first. They decided to play Shahid Afridi as an opener, and boy did it pay off. The decision to play Shahid Afridi as an opener did wonders for Karachi Kings. His aggressive start bundled with a quick, classy Colin Ingram cameo laid the perfect foundation for a big score.

And even after Shahid Afridi was clean bowled by Shane Watson, it did not put the breaks on their innings as they had the talent to back that start up, and so they did. Babar Azam and Lendl Simmons carried the team perfectly during the middle-overs, which was then capped off with a fine cameo from Hasan Mohsin, leading them to 195/6 at the end of the innings.

In response to that total, Quetta Gladiators' top-order disappointed heavily, especially Kevin Pietersen, who scored only a duck. Considering the target they were chasing, they lost their top-order very cheaply, and from that point onwards, it was fait accompli. Shahid Afridi was the most valuable player for Karachi Kings in this match. Not only did he provide the base for their team while batting, he also bagged three wickets under his name, making himself the player of the match.
