Match Over
QG 154/10 (20 ov)
PZ won by 8 wickets
QG fought, but 154 all out tells you the bowlers won this phase. What started with promise ended with a collapse. Nawaz's 37 off 35 (SR 106) was the innings that held everything together, with Rossouw (26 off 18) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Muqeem (3/25 in 4 ov), Basit (3/36 in 4 ov), Ahmed (2/20 in 4.1 ov) all contributed. The death overs were the story — 5 wickets fell as QG tried to accelerate, and what looked like 174+ became 154. PZ need 155 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 154/10 (20 ov)
PZ won by 8 wickets
QG fought, but 154 all out tells you the bowlers won this phase. What started with promise ended with a collapse. Nawaz's 37 off 35 (SR 106) was the innings that held everything together, with Rossouw (26 off 18) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Muqeem (3/25 in 4 ov), Basit (3/36 in 4 ov), Ahmed (2/20 in 4.1 ov) all contributed. The death overs were the story — 5 wickets fell as QG tried to accelerate, and what looked like 174+ became 154. PZ need 155 to win. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.
