KARACHI:

Haris Tahir will take on Muzammil Khan in the final of the 1st Jubilee Insurance National U18 Junior Snooker Championship after defeating their respective opponents — Willam Laffourge and Sameerul Hasan — at a local hotel in Lahore.

The other semi-final, which was a closely-contested affair between Muzammil and Hasan, saw Muzammil eventually triumph 4-3 with scores of 64-39, 28-112, 64-26, 68-08, 18-70, 50-60 and 62-41.
