Islamabad United finally got their first win of the PSL 11 season after defeating Quetta in an exciting match.

Batting first, Quetta had a difficult start as their batting lineup struggled early on. They were in trouble at 94 for 5, and it looked like they might end up with a low total.

However, Hassan Nawaz played a brilliant innings in the middle overs. He handled the pressure really well and helped his team recover. Thanks to his effort, Quetta managed to post a competitive total of 183 runs.


Strong Start from Islamabad

In the second innings, Islamabad United started confidently. Openers Devon Conway and Sameer Minhas played well and handled the powerplay smartly, giving their team a solid foundation.

But after the quick fall of two wickets, the match could have gone either way.

Alongside him, young player Sameer Minhas continued his excellent form and played a brilliant knock.

A Much-Needed Victory
