Iftikhar Ahmed has been named the Player of the Match & the Player of the Tournament!

A word from the winning captain, Iftikhar Ahmed:

"A good tournament and the boys have done us proud in all departments. They've made my job as a captain simpler. Would want to congratulate Munawar, Wahab, and Shaheen for their efforts on the field, as they have proven to be top drawer cricketers yet again."

So that's it from our end, it's Khyber Pakhtunkwa who have been crowned as Champions.

We will be back again, sooner than you think, so thank you and Good Night!
Iftikhar Ahmed has been named the Player of the Match & the Player of the Tournament.
So it's Khyber that will be lifting the title yet again!! Batting first, Central Punjab was restricted to 148. Mohammad Imran and Iftikhar Ahmed proved to be pivotal with the ball in hand and bagged three wickets apiece. Arshad Iqbal chipped in with two, whereas, Imran Khan and Khalid Usman picked up a wicket each. For Central Punjab, Ahmed Shehzad and Kamran Akmal accumulated a partnership of 85 runs, but the batsmen at middle order didn't have much to offer. 

The run chase turned out to be relatively comfortable for Khyber. Kamran Ghulam anchored the innings to score a valuable 37 up the order. However, a 62 run partnership in five overs between Iftikhar Ahmed 45 (19) and Adil Amin 25 (21) sealed the deal for their side. Central Punjab could only manage to scalp three wickets, with Sameen Gul, Muhammad Faizan, and Qasim Akram chiming in. At no stage did Central Punjab seemed to have added the pressure as Khyber secured a comprehensive win with seven wickets and 18 balls to spare. 

One has to congratulate Khyber Pakthunkhwa for a complete performance tonight, and for keeping their resolve throughout the campaign.
