Quetta cruise to victory over struggling Lahore

Rilee Rossouw struck an unbeaten 60 from 49 balls as Quetta Gladiators eased to a six-wicket win over Lahore Qalandars. Lahore were skittled for 134 in 19.5 overs as Haseebullah Khan top-scored with 33, while Jahandad Khan and Usman Tariq took three wickets each for Quetta. Quetta's chase started poorly as they lost both openers in the first three overs, with Shamyl Hussain dismissed by Shaheen Shah Afridi for a duck and Saud Shakeel was run out for one.

Quetta Gladiators secured a commanding six-wicket victory over the struggling Lahore Qalandars, powered by a composed, unbeaten 60 from South African star Rilee Rossouw. The win shakes up the PSL standings and highlights Quetta's growing momentum.

Lahore's innings never found its rhythm, crumbling to 134 all out in 19.5 overs. Haseebullah Khan's 33 was the lone resistance as Quetta's bowling attack, led by three-wicket hauls from Jahandad Khan and Usman Tariq, applied relentless pressure.

The chase hit an early snag when Shaheen Shah Afridi struck in the first over, dismissing Shamyl Hussain for a duck, followed quickly by a run-out. At 2 wickets down for minimal runs, the game was in the balance.

However, Rossouw and Hasan Nawaz (49 off 32 balls) staged a brilliant recovery, adding a match-defining 104-run partnership that shifted the momentum entirely. Their calculated aggression steered Quetta to their target with 22 balls to spare, a statement win for the Gladiators.

This crucial result propels Quetta into fourth place in the PSL table, while Lahore's difficult season continues, leaving them seventh with just two wins from six matches.
