Big was expected of Imran Nazir by Sialkot Stallions, but he flopped alongside the rest of the top-order. Shoaib Malik, the skipper stepped in to reform the innings and save his team from an embarrassing outing with a well-paced 62, which was supported immensely well by Qaiser Abbas. Both were dismissed in the space of an over, both via lbw. The lower-order was exposed to Auckland Aces' death bowling and it didn't fair well. Apart from Rana Naved-Ul-Hasan, no one could even score in double figures. Sialkot Stallions' lower-order and tail collapsed, left bowled out for 164.

A comfortable win for Auckland Aces in the end. Rob Nicol was the star of the chase with his brisk 63 which came from 51 balls, and included 6 boundaries. Mohammad Asif of Sialkot Stallions was far too expensive for a situation like this, he conceded 42 runs in 3.4 overs at an economy of 11.44. Rana Naved-ul-Hasan was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 3/29, but his best wasn't good enough for today.
Sialkot Stallions 164/10 in 19.2 overs.
Auckland Aces 167/5 in 19.4 overs.
Auckland Aces won by 5 wickets (with 2 balls remaining)
