This marks the end of our coverage from the 5th match of the ongoing PSL between Islamabad United and Peshawar Zalmi. Islamabad United have got a mammoth victory by 102 runs and the Peshawar Zalmi have started the season with back to back defeats in the two games they played. They have to regroup and come back stronger in the next game.
For now, this is Saptak Sanyal signing off on behalf of my colleagues Deepak Prakash, Akshaya Krishna Polya and Zeeshan Naiyer. Good night.

Shadab Khan (Islamabad United Captain): "I think credit goes to Sahibzada. He has worked hard behind the scene. I think the way he worked it was bound to pay off. He plays for Pakistan in and out but that doesn't change his work ethics.
We have had a few partnerships. Colin and Sahibzada, then Sahibzada and Agha- all batted well. It was not a very high scoring pitch. Hats off to them. One good thing is that we have 6-7 bowling options which gives us the cushioning when one bowler gets hit for runs. We have a guy like Nawaz. He came in and did incredible fielding today.
We are a data driven team and we look at the stats before making any move. We brought in Dwarshuis for Babar today and that paid off."

Sahibzada Farhan (Player of the Match): "Thanks to the almighty. The way I continued my domestic form, I want to credit Fakhar Zaman. He told me to play the same way I played in the domestic. Islamabad management kept the faith in me. Rehan Bhai said that I can hit 7-8 sixes today.
The shot over long-on against Linde was the top shot. I hope to continue the momentum and come out on top. This is my first POTM award in PSL. It means a lot to me."
