This incident took place in the Eliminator 1 contest that took place between Babar's Peshawar Zalmi and Islamabad United on March 16 (Thursday). 

Babar stroked 64 off 39 balls in the match and helped Zalmi beat United by 12 runs to book a place in the Eliminator 2. In second Eliminator, Zalmi met Shaheen Shah Afridi-led Lahore Qalandars and were beaten by 3 wickets. PSL 2023 final was rescheduled from Sunday (March 19) to Saturday (March 18) in wake of the bad weather. The organisers decided to keep Sunday as the reserve day if the rain washed out the game on Saturday.

Lahore meet Mohammad Rizwan-led Multan Sultans in the final and the game will start at 7.30 pm as per Indian standard time. Not to forget, Lahore are the defending champions while Multan had won the tournament in 2021. Both these sides have the opportunity to win their second PSL title.
