QG 174/8 (20 ov)
QG won by 40 runs
174 — competitive, dangerous, chaseable but only if everything goes right. QG will feel they have enough. Nawaz's 52 off 40 (SR 130) was the innings that held everything together, with Hussain (48 off 41) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Meredith (3/46 in 5 ov), Javed (2/18 in 1.4 ov), Theekshana (2/24 in 4 ov) all contributed. The death overs were the story — 3 wickets fell as QG tried to accelerate, and what looked like 194+ became 174. HK need 175 to win. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.

Match Over
QG 174/8 (20 ov)
QG won by 40 runs
174 — competitive, dangerous, chaseable but only if everything goes right. QG will feel they have enough. Nawaz's 52 off 40 (SR 130) was the innings that held everything together, with Hussain (48 off 41) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Meredith (3/46 in 5 ov), Javed (2/18 in 1.4 ov), Theekshana (2/24 in 4 ov) all contributed. The death overs were the story — 3 wickets fell as QG tried to accelerate, and what looked like 194+ became 174. HK need 175 to win. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.
2 wickets in the over! Just 10 off it. HK seizing control.
