LAHORE: Karachi Blues lifted the <a href="https://www.tapmad.com/sports/quaid-e-azam-trophy-2025-26/212/1">Quaid-e-Azam Trophy</a> (QEAT) 2025-26 crown after exceptional centuries from Abdullah Fazal and Haroon Arshad, combined with a brilliant bowling effort from pacer Saqib Khan, who picked up a five-wicket haul in the second innings and nine wickets in the match.

This win was the third title in Karachi Blues&rsquo; history, while Sialkot failed to defend their crown.

Sialkot chased a daunting 533-run target on the closing day of the Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore, but were dismissed at 314. Sialkot contributed just 23 to their overnight mark of 12 as Saqib made it clear at the start, dismissing opener Azan Awais, who was trapped lbw for 11.

Abdullah Shafique and Muhammad Hurraira tried to recover with a 46-run association, which took the total to 81. Hurraira later fell for 39, hitting five boundaries.

Abdullah continued to fight and formed some small alliances with the middle order despite losing his partners. His resistance ended after he made 59 out of 98 balls, including six fours and a six.

The most promising alliance to Sialkot was Hamza Nazar and Afzal Manzoor, who put 112 on the board in the sixth wicket and once more gave the team some hope of a turnaround. Both batters performed with confidence. Afzal made 63 off 48 balls, and Hamza made 56 out of 84 balls, hitting 13 and 9 fours respectively.

However, their dismissals saw Karachi Blues regain control when spinners Rameez Aziz and pacer Mushtaq Ahmed set to work and had both batters off within a short period of time. At that point, it was only a matter of time before Karachi capped the victory.

Saqib, who began the proceedings earlier, sealed the victory by bowling Mohammad Hasnain, and this was a fantastic concluding performance. His figures of 5 for 86 in 20.1 overs also enabled him to be the second-highest wicket-taker of the season with 47 wickets in nine matches at an average of 20.59.

Abdullah Fazal was named player of the final because of his excellent results of 88 and 114.

Saqib Khan’s five-wicket haul and standout batting performances guide Karachi Blues to QEAT 2025-26 championship.

Put into bat first, Karachi Blues ended the day at 285-6, owing to the disciplined early batting and despite a steady fightback by Sialkot.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Fazal made 88 off 149, and Usman was undefeated with 80 out of 107, hitting 10 fours and a six.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Tournament leading scorer Saad Baig began strongly and recorded an 80-run first opening with Abdullah Fazal. The partnership came to an end when Baig fell lbw to Hasan Ali after scoring 39 off 59, which had eight boundaries.&nbsp;&nbsp;

After the good beginning, the bowlers of Sialkot struck back, and a mini-collapse ensued where Karachi lost out on 80-1 to 125-4. Shan Masood was caught out by 13, on the crease, and Mohammad Hasnain got Haroon Arshad (15) and skipper Saud Shakeel, leaving Sialkot in a good position.&nbsp;&nbsp;

However, it was halted by Usman Khan and Abdullah Fazal with a vital 98-run partnership, which raised the total to 223. At last, the partnership was broken by Sialkot captain Usama Mir in the 54th over, when Mohammad Huraira caught Fazal.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Usman and Rameez Aziz added another partnership with the score reaching 267. Rameez, however, got out before the day ended, and the opening day of the final was left in a state of fine balance.&nbsp;&nbsp;

For Sialkot, the most notable bowlers were Hasan Ali and Mohammad Hasnain, who had two wickets each, and Usama Mir and Mohammad Ali, one wicket each.
