Gozo Zalmi won by 8 wickets
Mehboob Ali 37 (15) | Umair Saleem 47 (20)
Zeeshan Qaiser 3-7 (2) | Fanyan Mughal 1-12(2)

Zalmi does a double over Marsa without any surprise. The Marsa batters did deliver again but the bowling unit doesn't live up to the expectation. They didn't capitulate fully, unlike last time, but still, they had no answers to Mehboob's onslaught as he went all guns blazing inside the powerplay to help the team get off to a flying start inside the powerplay. He set the foundation early on and it made things easy for the Zalmi in the chase. Zeeshan lost his wicket in an unfortunate manner but Prasath joined hands with Mehboob and there is no stopping these two.

Marsa were poor on the fielder as they handed a few lifelines to Mehboob and he made them pay for it. Fanyan Mughal was the only bowler who seemed to have answers for Mehboob and he eventually, picked up his wicket, but only after all the damage was done. Prasath remained unbeaten in the end and helped his team to get their fourth win of this tournament
