Insha struck a vital blow sending Saba back to dugout with her individual score of 23 runs and batters that followed were all in tatters.

With regularly losing wickets at the other end, Nazia tried single handedly to keep scoreboard ticking but her dream run was halted by a peach of a delivery from Saba who clean bowled the top scorer just short of what could have been the first fifty of the match but she was left short of six runs, with her individual score card reading 44 and Insha was back in the pavilion.

Rest of the batters fell like a pack of cards and the innings folded at 94 runs.
