It was a run-fest at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, with both teams putting up a total of 483 runs together. Peshawar Zalmi batted first and amassed 240 runs, but Quetta Gladiators chased it down in just 18.2 overs to seal the match.

Babar Azam and Saim Ayub were in sensational form, dispatching the Quetta Gladiators' bowlers to all parts of the ground. Babar was particularly impressive, notching up a magnificent 115 runs off just 65 deliveries, while Saim smacked a blistering 74 runs off only 34 balls.
