Peshawar Zalmi win by four wickets courtesy of Daren Sammy's six in the last over as well as Liam Dawson's boundary on the last ball, defeating Islamabad United in spite of outstanding fielding by the opposing team in 21st match of Pakistan Super League's fourth season on Friday.
The first innings saw Peshawar Zalmi hurling pressure down Islamabad United as Hasan Ali and Ibtisam Sheikh took two wickets of Luke Ronchi and Philip Salt.
On the other hand, Cameron Delport looked out of form during his early overs before he picked the pace and managed to score 71 before getting bowled out by Hasan Ali, leaving behind a steady outlook for the approaching batsmen who managed to score a good total of 176 with one wicket remaining.
