It's Lahore Qalandars playing Manchester batsman United in the game between Hand and Islamabad. But in reality, there was no match between the bowlers of Qalandars and the batsmen of United. In the clearest statement of intent, Qalandars overtook the double champions, fired their bowling team, and took 200 points. But they saved the best of round two by dismantling the most famous round in PSL history, tearing them up, and knocking them out for 90.
This was the second-highest joint failure in the PSL.

The Kalandars continued their momentum at home after a big win against Peshawar Zalmi the day before. Until 24 hours ago it was unclear whether the city would be able to host more PSL matches this year, but now that they have been confirmed the defending champions appear to be imbued with a more relentless sense of purpose. Fakhar Zaman and Tahir Baig had a more productive start than yesterday, with 56 points in the game.

United stepped in to stop the Qalandars outside another packed house in Lahore.
Shadab Khan struck in his first over, then Tom Curran pulled Fakhar out in the next over to return two openers. But Qalandars kept batting. Sam Billings' form gave another dimension to the order in midfield, and with Abdullah Shafiq's explosive performancee, the game really moved away from United. The two batsmen combined to plunder four boundaries in Shadab's third, with Shafique toppling Zeeshan Zameer for 18 in his second. Billings and Shafique added 71 from 39 to give Qalandars an explosive finish.
Sikandar Raza, David Wiese and Rashid Khan contributed. Abrar Ahmed signaled the start of a death grip with 21 before Raza and Rashid hit 40 for 20 from 20 balls in an invaluable late collaboration to increase Qalandars' tally.

The Qalandars were challenged by Rahmanullah Gurbaz's generally smooth start to the first four rounds. Shaheen Shah Afridi started with 14 overs – 10 of them by wide runners – before Zaman Khan was knocked down by the horns in the fourth over for a whopping six.

Just when the hunt seemed to be on the right track, Zaman United leaps and falls.
On the last pitch of the fourth quarter, he dove left to throw Gulbazz. United then conceded 10 wickets for 49 as Qalandars overwhelmed United with the quality and quantity of their bowlers.

Wiese broke the streak by taking three mid-range wickets - Colin Munro, Shadab, and Azam Khan - to end the game. In the meantime, Haris Rauf overwhelms Rassie van der Dussen with a delightfully slow delivery.

They still have to take care of Rashid's little business.
Afghan is generally unavailable; his clever mix of top spinners, flippers, and goggles was too much for United. Raza would finish with three wickets, including a run-out.

Their grip on the trophy appears to be tightening as Lahore is officially confirmed as the play-off and final hosts.
lahore qalandars are looking very dangerous because their bowling line up is very dangerous they have bowlers like shaheen afridi , Rashid khan,haris rauf, and their consistently player fakhar zaman the way he is playing is superb
