I apologise for losing today's game, it appears the sticky wicket became flat when our opponents batted and that both our old ball specialists decided to not use their talent!

Good luck to the rest of you.

You've had a stellar league so far mate. No worries about the odd slip up.

The Multan vs Karachi semi-final is in full swing now. The 'Platinum', 'Diamond', 'Gold', 'Silver' and 'YOD 1' matches have all been played.

The score currently stands at MS 2-3 KK.

We move to the Sunday matches in order to get a result.

Well, the semi-final is now complete.

The score stands at MS 3-5 KK.

The Kings pull of an impressive win to secure a place in the finals.

Unfortunately, this means that Multan Sultans' campaign has officially ended. It was a decent run but one step too far in the end.

Well played to all the managers representing the franchise on some very good performances throughout the league.
