PSL 2020: Kamran Akmal completes hundred

Akmal, who opened the innings, smashed his third century of the PSL and the first in the fifth edition of the league from just 54 balls.He was dismissed on the very next ball, attempting to sweep Jason Roy for a six but was caught by Fawad near the boundary line.

Akmal's three hundreds  is a PSL  record as no other batsman could make more than one hundred. This was the sixth hundred in the PSL history. Only three other batsmen  hit tons earlier.

Akmal also holds the records of making the most runs and hitting the most sixes in the history of PSL.His opening partner, Tom Banton, was not as impressive, departing the crease scoring just 3 runs off 6 balls.

Earlier, Wahab Riaz was the pick of the bowlers for Peshawar Zalmi, taking two wickets for 21.

Riaz sent Shane Watson packing in the fourth over of the game. He was followed by Ahmed Shehzad, who returned to the pavilion after scoring just 12 runs courtesy of Mohammad Amir Khan.
Zalmi had made one change to the squad, bringing in Mohammad Mohsin in place of Mohammad Amir Khan
