So, that also brings an end to our coverage of this thrilling clash. For now, this is me Hiren Kumar, signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Saptak Sanyal and our scorer/analyst Paras Yadav. CHEERS!!!
Mohammad Rizwan (Multan Sultans Captain and Player of the Match)- "I didn't expect the ball to seam this much in the start. Iftikhar told us that if we don't gift the wickets in the powerplay, this game might go in our way. My plan was to take the game deep because we knew that we have good finishers and we can pull out the chase. We have two great finishers in the world. See, catch dropping is a big issue and if you look closely, we have started to improve. Yes, a lot of catches are getting dropped and everyone is doing it. I am not much worried about that."

Shaheen Shah Afridi (Lahore Qalandars Captain)-"I feel that if I had taken that catch, we would have been in a better position. But this tournament is still very young and we are not losing our hope. We have 7 more matches left. We have to execute our fielding chances well. I think Iftikhar and Khushdil are two best finishers in Pakistan and I am happy that they have played well. We have played well and we should improve our fielding."
Iftikhar Ahmed (Multan Sultans): "I have the same role in the National team. In T20 cricket this is the type of intent which is needed and there is no much time to settle. I was planning sitting in the dug out and i was looking to target Zaman Khan. The kind of role i have in the team and i am doing best. We still have areas to improve and we are a champion team. We will look to continue the momentum till the end."
