Awais Sulahri 72 (25) | Tasawar Hussain - 2/32 (2) Rana Hamza 55 (19) | Shah Khalid - 3/39 (2)
This was a thrilling innings but somehow, in some way, runs on the board in the first innings prevailed! So near yet so far for Markhor, as their charge was not quite enough in the end.
Rana Hamza played a magnificent hand, but needed someone else to go on and get a bigger score. There were starts, but no one else could get over 23 runs.
With the ball, the effort was pretty scratchy, as the lowest economy rate was 10.00 among all the five bowlers used. Even 12 runs were given away as extras. But, timely wickets and dot balls got the job done.
So, with this win, Al Fateh continue their winning streak while Markhor suffer their first defeat in three games.

9.6 Tasawar Hussain to Shah Khalid, FOUR RUNS! BUT IT IS AL FATEH WHO WIN FIVE IN A ROW! Full outside leg-stump, following the batter. Khalid is still able to drill it out over the left of the bowler and find the boundary beating two fielders!
9.5 Tasawar Hussain to Junaid Rehman, full on off-and-middle. Rehman makes room and drives it down to long-off for just the single.
9.4 Tasawar Hussain to Muhammad Qamar, GREAT CATCH AT LONG-ON! Full around middle-stump. Drilled away from deep in the crease over the in-field. But Abu Bakar Siddique does incredibly to keep the rope in mind behind him and complete the catch!
9.4 Tasawar Hussain to Muhammad Qamar, another WIDE, this time down the leg-side! These extras are making the match more interesting!
9.4 Tasawar Hussain to Muhammad Qamar, full, slow and too WIDE outside the line of off-stump. Well left alone on line!
9.3 Tasawar Hussain to Muhammad Qamar, good length ball at the pads. The big heave over the cow corner area from the back foot gets missed! No run.
9.2 Tasawar Hussain to Umer Raja, GOT HIM! Full on middle-and-off. Lofted high but not handsome off the front foot. Long-off gets around to his right and takes a composed catch!
9.2 Tasawar Hussain to Umer Raja, WIDE outside the line of off-stump with the angle across! Time to bowl it again.
9.1 Tasawar Hussain to Shah Khalid, full on leg-stump. Khalid makes room and slaps to cover to pick up a single.
