Earlier, Sahibzada Farhan smashed a fifty as Islamabad United posted 202 on the scoreboard against Peshawar Zalmi in the seventh game of the PSL 10. Initially scheduled for 8:00pm, the game was delayed to 8:45pm due to a wet outfield in Rawalpindi.

He and Sahibzada Farhan stitched a 35-run partnership to take Islamabad United to 80 in 8.3 overs. Farhan was dismissed after scoring 53 off 35 balls, with the help of seven fours and two sixes.
