Table-toppers Karachi Blues took the honours in a drawn game against Faisalabad at the National Stadium. They took three points from the game after securing a first-innings lead, and dominated the opposition with the bat on the final day, shutting out any possibility of a result. Karachi had led by 41 in the first innings and had slipped to 130 for 5 in the second after a good start. But centuries from Asad Shafiq (108 not out) and Wajihuddin (100 not out) sealed the draw; the pair added an unbeaten 177 for the sixth wicket and Karachi declared on 307 for 5, setting a target of 349. Faisalabad faced just 12 overs in the chase, finishing on 59 for 3 with Tariq Haroon accounting for all of them.
