HCC falls short chasing 181 Scores: RCC 180 (salman 32, Ankush 31, Mohsin 4wkts) HCC 146 (Bilal 44, Munzar 25) HCC clearly would regret the 60 extras they gave in the first session of play as RCC managed a defendable total of 180. Runs were hard to come by as HCC started their chase. RCC bowlers managed a tidy line and length and with wickets falling at regular intervals HCC never had their grip on the game.

HCC complete emphatic win Scores: CUCC (109 all out, Mohsin 4-20, Khurrum, 3-23) HCC (110-2, Asif 70) CUCC face the spin music as they were put into bat on a turning track. A confident start by CUCC with openers survivng the early overs and looked all set to put up a big total. Then came the spinners and the clueless CUCC batting had no chance on a track that was assisting the spinners. The ball found the gate on many occasions and the spinners had utilized the conditions to the ful extent. Mohsin and Khurrum were the main destroyers sharing 7 wickets amongst them. CUCC never had a chance of defending the modest target as Asif hit the first ball out of the ground for six. Asif unbeaten 70 ensured that HCC finsihed the game with plenty of overs remaining.
