Wasim’s brilliant figures of 5/23 in 4 overs laid the foundation for Islamabad United’s final victory. Restricting Multan Sultan to 159, Wasim’s team struggled to achieve the target. It was the last ball of the game in which he scored a point, and it ended in a victory.
“I didn’t know it would be a big tournament, I just wanted to contribute to the team’s success. It was something new – he scored five goals in the final. The lesson was to finish” a little while ago time. I love cricket and I do everything I can to help the team. He left cricket for 4-5 years,” Imad Wasim said after being named man of the match in the final.

“I realized that if I had more time, I would have used the stick better, numbers 6-7. I didn’t have the power play, like football. I tried to solve the technical problems, that’s one part. It’s important for him. It’s very convenient. It happens, it’s difficult for me to watch this match. I don’t feel pressure inside, but it’s difficult to watch it outside. I make life difficult for the people around me, so I don’t feel like sitting with the fans who should be arriving later. Special mention to the owners who supported me. I was captain for five years and we didn’t reach the final, but they helped us. There are a lot of things that I think are very important for us in this cup,” he said.
