Hasan strikes for Pakhtoon C.C.
In another game, Phaktoon C.C. would have expected a tougher game from their young
opponents Balouch C.C., but the youngsters caved in to an inspiring spell of seam bowling
from Hasan of Pakhtoon with 5 for 26 and Dawood 2 for 27.
Only Niyaz with 66 faced the onslaught admirably but 179 was always going to be a
difficult score to defend for the Balouch lads.
Imran (54*) and Tariq (45*) then got together for Pakhtoon to win the match
handsomely by 7 wkts.
