Opening the innings, Gohar, declared Man of the Match, smashed two sixes in his breezy 44 off 25 balls as Sindh Police amassed a huge total of 202 for three in the allotted overs. Fazal Subhani struck two sixes and five fours in his 67 off 42 balls, while Shaharyar Ghani whacked four sixes and two fours in his unbeaten 53 off 33 balls.
