Mohammad Amir was the pick of the bowlers with a spell of 2-25.
Rawalpindiz were immediately pegged back as Lahore captain Shaheen Shah Afridi removed both openers inside the first three overs, before Yasir Khan counter-attacked with 58 from 29 balls. Saad Masood also made a half-century but lacked support from the rest of the middle order as Lahore's bowlers chipped away with regular wickets, including Sam Billings for seven. Rawalpindiz finished on 178-9, and remain at the bottom of the table after seven games, while Lahore are one place above them with three wins.
