LAHORE (Web Desk) - Peshawar Zalmi will take on maiden finalists Multan Sultans in the final of the sixth edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) at Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi today (Thursday).

‘‘It was a difficult route we took to the final but it’s a great feeling,’’ Peshawar Zalmi skipper Wahab Riaz said after a surprisingly easy eight-wicket win over Islamabad United in the 2nd Qualifier on Tuesday.

On the other hand, Multan Sultans Monday made it to their maiden final by upsetting Islamabad United by 31 runs in the first Qualifier. ‘‘Wish you boys the best of luck for the finals!,’’ tweeted Shahid Afridi, former Pakistan captain who skipped the PSL this year.
