The last of the 3 finals was played on Sunday. Lahore Badshahs had won the first final while Hyderabad heroes won the second. This was meant to be the decider. Hyderabad Heroes batted first and they were not off to the best of starts as they lost Jimmy Maher in the second over. However Khaleel went on with the game and scored at quick pace. Heroes kept on losing wickets at the other end. They were 87 for 5 at one stage. Boje and Binny added on quick runs with their lusty hittings. Their final score was 158. It seemed to be a challenging total and Harris would have thought about winning the match if he could put early pressure on the Lahore Badshah players.
Imran Nazir and Farhat went to the crease with the full licence to score. Nazir played with atmost freedom. He played the innings of his life. He scored 111 of 44 balls which was indeed a match winning knock. Farhat played second fiddle to Nazir. Nazir hit 11 sixes and hit every bowler to all corners of the park. They finished off the game in the 14th over itself. Nazir was undoubtedly the man of the match while Rana Naved was named the man of the series.
