A magnificent 162-run knock by Ali Razzaq and a crucial all-round performance guided Ghani Glass to a five-wicket victory over SNGPL in the President’s Trophy Grade-I 2024-25 at the State Bank Stadium, Karachi.
SNGPL’s Competitive First Innings
After being put in to bat first, SNGPL posted a competitive total of 270 in 83.5 overs, thanks to a brilliant century by Saifullah Bangash (104). He was well-supported by Abid Ali (65) and Yasir Shah (54). However, Khurram Shahzad’s outstanding five-wicket haul (5-70) and Mir Hamza’s disciplined spell (2-44) prevented SNGPL from capitalizing further.
Ali Razzaq’s Masterclass Puts Ghani Glass Ahead
In response, Ghani Glass put up a commanding total of 435 in 117 overs, largely due to a sensational innings by Ali Razzaq (162). His stroke-filled knock, along with Hammad Butt’s valuable 61 and useful contributions from Shan Masood (35), Saad Nasim (34), and Kashif Ali (27), ensured a 165-run lead for Ghani Glass. Mohammad Waleed (4-46) and Rahat Ali (3-96) toiled hard for SNGPL but struggled to contain the flow of runs.
