New Karachi skipper Imad Wasim nearly shepherded a brave run-chase with an unbeaten 80 off 47 balls that included a last-ball six to carry his team to 197-5 on Tuesday.
Babar, who was traded to Peshawar from Karachi for this season's T20 competition, made 68 but it was Tom Kohler-Cadmore's belligerent 92 off 52 balls that motored Peshawar to 199-5.

New Zealand's James Neesham (2-26) picked up two early wickets and Karachi had slumped to 46-4 inside the first seven overs before Wasim and veteran Shoaib Malik (52) combined in a meticulous 131-run stand and raised the home team's hopes.

Peshawar were scratchy in the field in the death overs when Wahab Riaz dropped a regulation catch of Malik on 38 at wide mid-on and Neesham couldn't judge a skier of Ben Cutting before the Australian had scored.

Left-arm fast bowler Riaz (2-34) made amends for his fielding lapse when he had Malik caught behind in the penultimate over and inexperienced fast bowler Khurram Shahzad (0-47) held his nerves in the final over with 16 runs to defend.

Earlier, Kohler-Cadmore and Babar raised an electrifying 131-run partnership after Peshawar lost two wickets in the second over and stuttered to 16-2. Pakistan international Mir Hamza had Mohammad Haris lbw off a sharp inswinger, and Saim Ayub was run out after Babar's hard drive flicked the fingers of Hamza's hand and went onto hit the stumps at the non-striker's end.

Kohler-Cadmore showed a lot of aggression against both spin and pace and smashed three consecutive sixes against left-arm spinner Wasim's (0-42) one over in the batting powerplay. Karachi's ace fast bowler Mohammad Amir (0-42) also couldn't get a wicket as Kohler-Cadmore and Babar kept on pushing the scoring rate.

Babar finally holed out at long-on while going for a big hit against Imran Tahir (1-40) while Kohler-Cadmore was caught at deep backward square leg with three balls left in the innings as he looked for first century in this season's PSL.
