Cameron Delport (78 off 61) and Umar Akmal (unbeaten 52 off 31) starred for Lahore as they posted a 165-run target for Peshawar in the fifteenth match of the inaugural Pakistan Super League at Sharjah.
Peshawar won the toss and opted to bowl first against Lahore who saw Azhar Ali coming back into the team after sitting out yesterday against Karachi Kings.
The Lahore captain scored 25 off 26 balls while his partner Chris Gayle scored a first-ball duck as Junaid Khan dismissed his LBW.
Junaid took two wicket for 32 runs in his four over. Darren Sammy was the only other bowler to get a wicket as he bowled three overs for 20 runs as Lahore scored 164-3 in their 20 overs.
PES 5-0 (1 over)
FOUR! Two slips to find Hafeez’s inside edge off an out-swinger but he goes over covers.
Ehsan Adil open the bowling for Lahore as they defend a good, decent total. Muhammad Hafeez and Tamim Iqbal open the chase for Peshawar.
LHR 164-3 (20 overs)
FOUR! Umar ends it with a boundary towards extra cover. He gets his
FIFTY as well. He is finding the sweet part of his bat with the Asia Cup and the World Twenty20 round the corner.
Single by Umar followed by another half chance for Sammy at short third man. It was fired towards him and he got his right hand to it. He surely saved a boundary.
OUT! Slow and short and Delport lunges into a pull, is caught at midwicket by Dawid Malan on 78.
Single off the first ball by Umar. Delport faces now… low full-toss dispatched straight and beats long-off for a
FOUR.
LHR 153-2 (19 overs)
Eight runs off the over.
Single, double, single, double, single; what will the last ball reap? Another single.
Wahab bowls the penultimate over.
LHR 145-2 (18 overs)
SIX! Pulled to perfection by Delport. Short ball, chest high and Delport anchors his eyes on the ball till the point when the bat makes contact with the ball.
Shaun Tait on now.
LHR 132-2 (17 overs)
FOUR! Umar misses a fuller delivery but follows up with a slice over covers.
FOUR! Half chance for Sammy at long-off but he spills it and the ball runs to the boundary.
