Islamabad United just failed to ensure a top 2 finish after losing their last match of the league stages to Babar Azam’s Zalmi side by 13 runs. However, Shadab Khan-led Islamabad would fancy their chances to winning the Eliminator clash with Hasan Ali and Fazalhaq Farooqi in top form with the ball. Zalmi were at the receiving end of two successful run-chases of over 240 runs, came back successfully to beat Islamabad in their final league stage game in Rawalpindi, to not only qualify for the playoffs but also set up the Eliminator with the same opponent.


Earlier, Zalmi skipper Babar Azam scored his 8th T20 century and became the joint second player to achieve this feat along with Aaron Finch, Michael Klinger and David Warner. Chris Gayle tops the list with 22 hundreds.
