Earlier, Lahore won the toss and opted to field first. Islamabad plundered a big score of 198 for the loss of only three wickets. After being put into bat, openers Luke Ronchi with Munro provided a perfect start to their team with an opening wicket century partnership. They made 103 before Ronchi departed after hitting 48 from 31 balls. Munro, who remained not out at the end of 20 overs and faced 59 balls, ensured that runs continued to flow. The left-handed batsman was at the batting end for almost half of Islamabad’s innings, smashing eight fours and three sixes. He was later named man of the match. Colin Ingram made a useful 19-ball 29, which included six fours, in the middle-order, but it was Asif Ali’s blistering 20 not out off just six balls, out of which three went for fours and one for a six, which ensured Lahore’s required run-rate touched almost 10 an over. Islamabad’s three wickets were shared by Salman Irshad (one for 43), Mohammad Faizan (one for 41) and Hafeez (one for 11).
