LAHORE: Kieron Pollard’s scorching half-century helped Karachi Kings defeat Lahore Qalandars by two wickets in a last-ball drama during Pakistan Super League (PSL) season 9 at Gaddafi Stadium on Saturday.
Chasing a 176-run goal, the Shan Masood-led squad needed 11 runs from the final over and scored it with Mir Hamza’s winning single on the penultimate ball. This was Lahore Qalandars’ fourth consecutive defeat in PSL 9.
The left-handed Hamza held his nerve despite Ahsan Hafeez’s wicket of Hasan Ali, who smashed six to narrow the gap to five runs.
