Balochistan won by 23 runs
  
Man of the match: Mohammad Junaid

Balochistan take game 1!

After a poor campaign in the First-Class and T20 formats by Balochistan, Central Punjab were seen comfortable favourites ahead of this game. Central Punjab won the toss and chose to bowl first, restricting Balochistan to 247, a target they'd bet on chasing. A good innings from Muhammad Akhlaq put them ahead in the chase, but Usman Khan and Tayyab Tahir struggled to put away the spinners, putting the target out of reach​
