PSL’17: Islamabad United to face Quetta Gladiators tonight

Pakistan Super League (PSL) will resume after a two-day break as the seventh match will be played on Wednesday (tonight) at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.

The match will be played between Islamabad United and Quetta Gladiators and will start at 9:00 PM Pakistan Standard Time.

On Sunday, the troubled Pakistan Super League witnessed its lowest ever score as focus shifted back to the action after the glitzy Twenty20 tournament was torpedoed by allegations of spot-fixing.

Peshawar Zalmai outlasted Lahore Qalandars by three wickets after bowling out their opponents for just 59.

However, Peshawar struggled to make the winning target of 60, losing seven wickets in the process.

Pakistan paceman Hasan Ali took three wickets while England’s Chris Jordan claimed two.

On Friday, Islamabad United openers Sharjeel Khan and Khalid Latif were provisionally suspended following a corruption probe linking games to an international betting syndicate.

Sharjeel has played one Test, 25 one-day and 15 Twenty20 internationals in a career which has recently taken off.

Three more players, Mohammad Irfan of Islamabad United, Quetta’s Zulfiqar Babar and Shahzaib Hasan of Karachi Kings were also quizzed but cleared of any wrong-doing.
