SHARJAH: Islamabad United won a nail-biting thriller against Brendon McCullum-led Lahore Qalandars in a super over at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium tonight.

A six by debutant Salman Irshad of Qalandars on the third ball of the 19th over levelled the 121-run score of United, however in a dramatic turn of event, fast bowler Muhammad Sami took his wicket on the very next ball by bowling a short-pitched bouncer; leaving the match drawn.
