Speen Ghar Tigers Innings

Batting first, Speen Ghar Tigers scored 151/8 in their 20 overs. Ijaz Ahmadzai scored 75 off 45 balls later in the innings and played fluently and anchored the innings. Ismat Alam added a steady 22 off 22 balls, and Ikram Alikhil chipped in with a quick-fire 14 off 7 balls. The innings started brightly but dropped momentum in the final overs due to continuous breakthroughs. Mujeeb-ur-Rahman was the standout bowler who took 3/14 in a brilliant spell of 4 overs. He was well supported by captain Farmanullah Safi (2/24) and Ziaur Rahman Sharifi (2/39), where they limited the Tigers to a chaseable total.

Misbah-ul-Haq's Knights Innings

In response, Mis Ainak Knights chased down the target of 152 with just one ball to spare, finishing at 152/6 in 19.5 overs.

Captain Farmanullah Safi contributed nicely in the middle with an innings of 28 from 16 balls, while Nasir Jamal proceeded steadily with 27 runs from 28 balls. With wickets falling at regular intervals, the Knights kept a cool head under pressure. Zahir Khan's 3/33 nearly saw the Tigers home, but Naseer Khan Maroofkhil (1/6) and Fareed Ahmad Malik (1/34) lacked the support needed to stop the Royals from chasing down the total. The Knights showed their experience and ultimately took a tight 4-wicket victory.
