Top 10 highest match aggregates in Twenty20

3. Karachi Dolphins (Whites) vs Lahore Eagles (Lahore – October 2010, Faysal Bank T20 Cup) – 451 runs

Shahid Afridi’s all-round show enabled the Karachi Dolphins (now Whites) to post a comfortable win over the Lahore Eagles in a Group D match of the Faysal Bank T20 Cup at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.

Eagles captain Taufeeq Umar put the Dolphins in to bat after winning the toss, and he was left to rue his choice as opener Shahzaib Hasan compiled a majestic unbeaten 101 off just 61 balls, hitting 13 fours and three sixes in the process. Fellow opener Khalid Latif scored 55 from 37 balls as the two raised 138 runs for the first wicket.

Following this partnership, Dolphins captain Afridi blasted 48 runs off just 18 balls, and Tariq Haroon also carted four sixes to help his side reach 243/2.

Faced with a daunting target, the Eagles got off to a rapid start with Imran Farhat and Taufeeq putting on 66 for the first wicket. Farhat fell for a 36-ball 53, but the side were kept in the chase by a belligerent innings from Ali Azmat (who had earlier dropped Shahzaib in the first innings). The batsman smashed five fours and five sixes in his enterprising 69, but tight bowling from Afridi and Tanvir Ahmed restricted the Eagles to just 208, leaving the Dolphins winners by 35 runs.
