00:00And Cole Myers here in his first game for Islamabad, opening the bowling.
00:06Straight up, first up, bottom of the bat, but that's enough.
00:11With that pretty easy pace, comes nicely onto the bat.
00:1610,000 for a boundary, top edge, shots here.
00:21Is Owen going to go? Yes, he will.
00:23Torchius takes the catch, and they get the first wicket on the second ball.
00:28This is game on.
00:30Nice shot.
00:34Beautiful on-drive.
00:38Gone.
00:40Torchius strikes, and Saima Hughes, HBL, PSL, continues going downwards.
00:47Everything behind that shot.
00:49Oh.
00:53Flicks that.
00:55That line is really asking for trouble.
00:57Oh, he would have been gone had that hit the stops.
01:09It looked very close.
01:10Replay has him short of his ground if that had hit.
01:12He's not going to waste time.
01:26He's not going to waste time.
01:26And he's going to get them in a hurry if he does.
01:33Oh, taken.
01:36Brilliantly timed jump off the toe end of Horace.
01:41Well, there's their third.
01:42Clipped into the left side.
01:47It's the second time now he's done that.
01:49Over that mid-wicket fielder.
01:54No, you said for him not to bowl that.
01:57But he's been a bit jittery.
01:58Oh, not jittery.
02:01There is he.
02:03He is bossing this game now.
02:05First appearance out.
02:0716 off-mands over.
02:09Halfway mark it.
02:1076 for three.
02:11What a shot that was.
02:19Serious shot.
02:22Just watch the position.
02:24He finds themselves in.
02:26We've seen a couple of positions tonight.
02:28But this is up there with the best.
02:31Nice back lift.
02:33Nice follow through.
02:35And Bushington's for six.
02:37Nice beautifully played.
02:43That's fabulously played.
02:45Quick bouncy pitch.
02:47So you get inside the line to play that full shot.
02:49And just help it along its way.
02:52Yeah, we've been screaming about it.
02:55If you want to play that short ball, get inside the line.
02:59And young Sadaka did it right.
03:02He's used the pace and allowed the ball to come close to him.
03:05And then moving the body out of the way.
03:11Oh, he goes again.
03:12And again.
03:14Just uses the pace to help it up and over.
03:17Colin Munro, a fine leg.
03:19It's a wonderful strike.
03:21And that brings up the 100.
03:23They are cruising now.
03:24I like this young Sadaka.
03:26He's brave.
03:28He plays well.
03:29Square of the wicket.
03:30And he uses the pace.
03:32He's not worried.
03:33He's...
03:34To play those pull shots against the Pacers.
03:38A little bit of bounce on that surface.
03:40And he made sure that he hits up.
03:43Superb he does.
03:49It's cheeky and it's brilliant.
03:54Four more to this fine young player.
03:57A little nervous.
03:59Saad on his first delivery down the leg side.
04:02And plenty of confidence in Sadaka's batting.
04:10Although there was a fielder there.
04:12He made sure that he goes over the head of that fielder.
04:16He still had a bit of work to do, didn't he?
04:21Well, it's got through everything.
04:23It'll be four wide.
04:25Five in total.
04:28Providing there was no bat on that.
04:29Yeah.
04:31Five wides.
04:34And it just goes from bad to desperate.
04:37For Islamabad United.
04:39I hope they've not given up.
04:41They tried a ball that googly but are totally wrong line.
04:45Wrong length.
04:47And Azam Khan behind stump.
04:49I have no clue.
04:55Oh, edged.
04:56I think it was a genuine edge.
04:57He was looking to give himself a bit of room.
05:01But it fairly flashed away to the third man boundary.
05:05Now Sadaka is honing in on a debut half century in the PSL.
05:09Yeah, they are in a bit of a hurry now.
05:15They know Sadaka is a weak link on this surface.
05:20He's a good cricketer.
05:22Can bat and ball.
05:23Again, tried the googly.
05:25Oh, that's a great shot.
05:28Oh, that's a great shot.
05:34Just a bit under 140 for Raleigh Meredith from around the wicket.
05:39And dismissed.
05:40Well, the youngster.
05:44Yeah, he's growing in confidence, isn't he?
05:47Look at the bat speed.
05:49Oh, that's magnificent.
05:54That'll get them on their feet.
05:56Baba joins the party.
05:58That was a pacey delivery.
06:03Over 140 kilometers an hour.
06:06And Baba just moving away, giving a little room to go over Midoff.
06:12He's growing in confidence.
06:13Big hit.
06:14Flat hit.
06:15Probably one of the best shots I've seen from Baba this inning.
06:25Just gets over.
06:27Just gets over.
06:31100 partnership comes up.
06:34And it has been littered with glorious strokes.
06:39And the fans are going to go happy this evening.
06:41That is for sure.
06:42Because they've got to see Baba do things like this.
06:46Yeah, they've done it pretty easy, haven't they?
06:48Baba struggled a little bit early, but the way that Sadakat's come in
06:52and really taken control of this last year, you were involved.
06:56Oh, Nickton gone.
06:58It's a little bit late, but Nassim has his man.
07:02But not before Maz Sadakat has stamped his name upon the HBL PSL.
07:08The fourth youngest batter to make a half century in the tournament.
07:13And it was in innings to remember.
07:16Yeah, he's played beautifully tonight, hasn't he?
07:18Trying to finish it off in style there.
07:20And all he can do is just get his gym behind and easy catch for Azam Khan.
07:24That'll do it.
07:30Slight misfield.
07:31The ball bursting through the hands of mid-wicket and then bursting into the boundary fence.
07:36Rashawa Zalmi win by six wickets.
07:39They just about stay in touch with the top four.
07:44And that is a win against the head, you feel, with Islamabad now having suffered back-to-back defeats here in Lahore.
07:51Smiles on the faces of the coaching staff of the Zalmi.
07:55Baba sees it home for them once again, finishing up with 53 from 49.
08:02I think when all is said and done and the players have shaken hands,
08:05the person whose name will be ringing across a lot of the homes here in Pakistan
08:10will be that of Maz Sadakat and how well did that young man play.
08:15He was impressive tonight.
08:20Young man taking pressure off his older statesman and Baba.
08:25That partnership that they put on.
08:27Very, very impressive.
08:31Alzari Joseph there mid-screen.
08:32How impressive was he with the ball today?
08:34Bolt fast.
08:36Bolt with intent.
