Scorecard

Having racked up a mammoth total, North West Frontier Province completely annihilated Baluchistan inside three days in Quetta. Leading the rout was NWFP's captain, Umar Gul, whose 6 for 39 skittled Baluchistan for just 93 in their second innings. Forced to follow on, they could only muster 221, with Yasir Shah taking 4 for 96.

At 66 for 3 overnight, Baluchistan spectacularly lost seven wickets for 27 runs. Gul was the wrecker-in-chief, claiming five wickets in no time. Baluchistan's second innings was slightly better, but their top order slumped to 27 for 3 before Saeed Bin Nasir (47) and Kamran Hussain (48) delayed the inevitable. Gul started the rot by dismissing Shoaib Khan jnr for 6 and Yasir cleaned up the middle order.

Federal Areas 322 and 275 for 1 (Amin 101*, Bazid 66*, Majeed 66) lead Sind 367 (Sohail Tanvir 5-100) by 230 runs

Sind added 79 runs to their score thanks to useful innings from Tanvir Ahmed (41) and Sohail Khan (18*) who added 35 for the last wicket. Sohail Tanvir wrapped up the innings.

In reply, trailing by 45, Federal Areas were handed a good start from Raheel Majeed (66) and Umair Khan, who retired hurt on 26.
