Smeedโ€™s debut goes in vain as the youngster played his first game in the PSL scoring 97 runs and also created a record of a great partnership with Ahsan Ali. PSL witnessed the overseas player dominate the first innings while the local and experienced Pakistani player Malik won it for his team.

The fans experience a brilliant night with some sensational batting performance by both the teams and the bowling unit for both the teams seemed not to make any impact in todayโ€™s pitch. The dry pitch probably encouraged the batsman to score some runs on the board, while the bowlers struggled to take wickets. Usman Qadir and Sameen Gul managed to take two wickets each for team Peshawar Zalmi while Nawaz took 3 wickets for team Quetta Gladiators but struggled with an economy of 11.
