Alzarri Joseph to Sahibzada Farhan, out Caught by Talat!! Farhan's superb hand comes to an end, he walks off to a rousing reception from the crowd and from the dug-out, what a sensational hundred this has been.

Sufiyan Muqeem to Sahibzada Farhan, 1 run, a hundred to savour for Sahibzada Farhan!! He's been in the fringes of Pakistan cricket for quite some time now, but he's using this PSL to showcase he can be the main man for his franchise and maybe even for the country!! A shortish delivery onto the stumps, punched down to long-on and Farhan has his fist up in celebration as he runs the single. Soaks in the applause and gets a big hug from his partner Munro. A look towards the heavens almost in relief now from the Islamabad batter.

Mohammad Ali to Sahibzada Farhan, out Gous Run Out!! 2 runs completed!! There's an appeal for a run-out at the striker's end - it's TKC and he's done superbly to flick the ball onto the stumps, has it caught Gous short? Yes, he was lazily pushing his bat into the crease, but the zing bails light up with the bat short of the ground. Gous is OUT. First up, was a short ball down leg and Farhan missed the pull, flicked the thigh and rolled behind square on thew on-side, the chase is laborious and they look to sneak in a third, but TKC comes across, he's back to he action, collects the ball one-handed and then flicks it onto the stumps, the zing bails light up and Gous has to go. Gous run out (Saim Ayub/Kohler-Cadmore) 0(2)
