Lovely pictures from the PSL where the underdogs @HHKingsmen reached the final after a superb Hunain Shah final over.

Not often moments in T20 leagues cut across cricket, out to people who may not have watched a ball of this league, the way Hunain's 20th over and the wild celebrations led by Marnus that followed it did. Special night for the PSL, lovely moment for cricket.

Marnus Labuschagne's first stint as a T20 franchise captain 😮 An incredible comeback from his Hyderabad Kingsmen to reach the PSL final 👏 #PSL2026

And with that Marnus, your initiation into ‘One Minute Down, Next Minute Up’ is complete.

(Pics left to right): 1. Yea 2. Talk 3. Nah

Pakistan cricket has an impact on cricketers that no other country can have. Unparalleled adrenaline rush.

Marnus Labuschagne now has been through the complete spectrum of emotions in sport, while playing in Pakistan.

POV: It's already morning, but you can't get over this game's hangover 🥶 #PSL | 📷 PCB

Hunain Shah's practice paid off at the perfect time for Hyderabad Kingsmen 🎯

Good day, everyone 🫶 #IUvHK

Emotions boiled over in the PSL last night 🔥 Hunain Shah held his nerve, defended 6 in the final over, and sent Hyderabad Kingsmen into the final in their debut season 🤯
