Peshawar looked to be on easy street as they cruised to 85 runs in seven overs for the loss of one wicket in the shape of Tom Banton (3). Kamran Akmal was doing most of the damage with the bat. Image Credit: AFP

But the day belonged to Akmal as his 101 off 55 balls helped Peshawar to a six-wicket victory, reaching their target (153-4) with nine balls remaining. Liam Livingstone finished the match in style, smashing a six over the boundary. Image Credit: AFP

On Thursday night, Lahore made yet another poor start after they were restricted by Multan to 138-8, mainly because of Multan's three spinners. Lahore have finished last in all four previous leagues, and this match would not have persuaded anyone that change was coming Image Credit: AFP

Lahore's ploy of four fast bowlers didn't work out on a slow pitch. Their Big Bash star Haris Rauf took one wicket but was hammered for 40 off four overs as Multan raced to a winning 142-5 in just 16.1 overs. Image Credit: AFP
