Watch: During the 2024 PSL, Shaheen Shah Afridi bowled a fast, accurate yorker that David Willey had no answer to.
Lahore Qalandars posted a score of 166 for 5 against Multan Sultans after Shaheen Shah Afridi opted to bat at the Multan Cricket Stadium.
Rassie van der Dussen tops the score with 54 from 37 balls. Fakhar Zaman took 36 off 41 balls at the top, but Sikandar Raza (23 off 16 balls), Jahandad Khan (16 off 9 balls) and Carlos Brathwaite (15 off 8 balls) Lahore equalized the score thanks to a refreshing performance from No Outs. In the 4-over match against the host team, Muhammad Ali had 2 wins and 28 losses, while Osama Mir had 1 win and 25 losses.
It was not easy for Multan to chase down the attack with Shaheen, Haris Rauf and Zaman Khan, and Multan finished with 53 wins and 3 losses after 8 overs. However, captain Mohammad Rizwan (82 off 59 balls) remained at the top along with David Willey (25 off 23 balls).
After the fall of Rizwan, Willi continued his activities after Iftikhar Ahmed took over command. This partnership ended when Shaheen bowled over the wicket and flicked his ball back to left-handed Willie. The movement was too fast for Willy. Willie fell while trying to place his bat on a yorker and was thrown out with his feet in front of the ball.
Willie limped away, but the review was not helpful as replays showed the ball could have hit leg stump.
Lahore kept Multan at bay until they needed 21 off 11 balls, butIftikhar beat Zaman’s next five balls for 4, 4, 6, 6, 4 and earned 5 points. win. Wicket victory.
