Zalmi’s captain Babar Azam had won the toss and decided to bowl first. Riaz gave them the perfect start by dismissing Ahsan Ali and Umar Akmal in the second over of the innings, but thanks to amazing innings by Iftikhar Ahmed, Gladiators hit back in the second half of the innings to post 184/5 in 20 overs.
Iftikhar stitched a 51-run partnership with Khushdil Shah, to get Quetta back on track for a competitive total. Iftikhar completed his fifty in 42 balls.
