Multan Sultans defeat Quetta Gladiators by 30 runs in their final home game of PSL 2020.

MULTAN -- The Multan Sultans defeated the Quetta Gladiators by 30 runs despite Australian Shane Watson's heroics to bring his team closer to the 200 rund target set by the host team.

Quetta were locked good to take the game down to the wire after the start they gt from openers Jason Roy and Shane Watson. However, the opening partnership was shattered when Bilawal Bhatti dismissed the former on 30 off 27 balls. He was caught in the deep by Moeen Ali as he attempted to slog Bhatti.

Watson continued to lead the onslaught, scoring a half-century as he battered the Multan Sultans' bowlers for sixes and fours. Ahsan Ali wasn't able to stick around for long, as he was caught by Vince off a Khushdil Shah delivery, scoring an unimpressive 14 off 16 balls.

After a couple of impressive innings in the tournament, Azam Khan seems to have lost his magic touch as he was caught out off an Imran Tahir delivery, scoring just 6 runs from an equal number of balls.

Tahir claimed his next victim, the dangerous Shane Watson, as he too, like Azam, attempted to hit him for a six but got caught. Watson scored an impressive 80 runs from 41 balls, hammering a staggering seven 4s and an equal number of sixes.

For Sultans, Bhatti was the pick of the bowlers with three wickets, with Tahir helping his team with two crucial wickets.
