Signature Aluminium took to the crease first, but their initial journey was fraught with challenges as they lost three early wickets. Opener Ibrahim Sardar Dosani steadied the ship with a gritty 31 off 24 deliveries. Muhammad Muavia chipped in with 13 off 19, and it was Umer Khanani’s blazing late innings knock of 69 off just 29 balls that provided the much-needed momentum. However, the rest of the batting lineup struggled against the bowling attack of Majestic Paints. Usman Ashraf stood out as a standout bowler, claiming 3 crucial wickets. Salman Waseem and Arsalan Amin provided valuable support, each grabbing 2 wickets. Signature Aluminium finished their innings at 157/9, setting a target to defend.
Majestic Paints embarked on their chase with a clear goal in mind. Despite the early loss of two wickets, their middle order showed resilience. Arsalan Amin’s 25 off 14 and Saim Suleman Mamdani’s 16 off 12 laid the foundation. Usman Ashraf’s 29 off 33 and Abdullah Afzal’s 16 off 15 kept the scoreboard ticking. Abdur Rehman’s unbeaten 30 off 24 further added to the challenge. However, the lower order found it tough to sustain the momentum as they grappled against the varied bowling attack of Signature Aluminium. Hammad Warrind led the charge for Signature Aluminium’s bowling unit, securing 3 key wickets. Owais Maskatia, Muhammad Bilal, Ali Aslam, and Nehal Ahmed each contributed with a wicket.
