Well, what a clinical performance from the Quetta Gladiators. They have out-bowled, out-batted and out-captained the Kings. Nothing went smooth for the Karachi Kings. Lost early wickets. Malik and Bopara injected useful partnership. Chasing 148, Wright and Shehzad tore the Kings apart. Early on in the chase, Luke Wright was lucky were he wasn't adjudged out in the very first over. There after, the duo negotiated the spin well, maneuvered the quickies very well. Shaezhad played an innings of the tournament so far and guaranteed his teams victory before he got out. KP came in and finished the proceedings.

Ahmed Shehzad has been adjudged Man of the Match for his scintillating knock.
