The grand finale to the sports extravaganza – staged in the country on Sunday after a long cricketing drought – signaled a definite triumph of peace.

Quetta Gladiators stormed past Peshawar Zalmi with relative ease, courtesy a ruthless team bowling performance led by young pacer Muhammad Hasnain.



Earlier, Director General Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Major General Asif Ghafoor said that successfully hosting PSL 4 in the country was "the best answer to its enemies".

He also took to Twitter to convey Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa's message.

“COAS congratulates all on successful organisation of PSL especially PCB, all teams, organisers, administration,  Sindh Rangers, Sindh Police, Law enforcement agencies and people of Karachi,” he wrote.

COAS congrats all on successful organisation of PSL especially PCB, all teams, organisers, administration, Pak Rangers Sindh, Sindh Police, LEAs & people of Karachi.
“All praises to Almighty Allah. May Allah continues His blessings upon Pakistan. Amen.”, COAS.#PakistanZindabad
