I can, because I should. I'll do the same for Peshawar Zalmi. They'll lose Tamim Iqbal once the play-offs begin, and if they qualify.

Lahore Qalandars came out with all guns blazing today! Jason Roy and Cameron Delport's 120-run partnership was the epitome of redesign-rebuild-reclaim. Then, Mohammad Rizwan and Bilawal Bhatti's cameos made up for Shahid Afridi's hat trick in the 18th over. They saved their team from a massively disappointing collapse that would've occurred after that fabulous 120-run partnership.

15.1 Usman Qadir to Eoin Morgan, Short ball, cut away for a run. (1)
15.2 Usman Qadir to Kamran Akmal, He walks across his stumps trying to paddle it away, but misses it. And the keeper's appealing! There was a sound as the ball passed the batsman, and the umpire is unmoved. Replays show it was off the pad. Good call. (0)

17.5 Yasir Shah to Darren Sammy, Full and on the toes, the batsman just flicks it past the now-vacant short fine leg region for four runs! The captain is fuming, and it's right after he took the fielder out of there! (4)

Lahore Qalandars' fans erupt with joy after a fantastic win takes them to the top of the table! Peshawar Zalmi, just, just falling short of the total. Perhaps the loss of a set-and-on 77 Eoin Morgan in the final over cost them a win from this thriller. Bilawal Bhatti, who was playing his first match this season, was adjudged the Man of the Match for his cameo and match-winning final over.
