Bahawalpur Stags stunned Lahore Eagles with a 113-run victory in their National One-day Cup fourth round match at the LCCA Ground in Lahore.

Eagles won the toss and opted to field but their decision did not turn out to be fruitful as Stags scored a competitive 228 for nine.

Jawad Hussain scored 49 with a six and three boundaries while Faisal Mubashir scored 47. The trio of Jahangir Mirza, Adnan Danish and Qaiser Ashraf claimed two wickets apiece.


In reply, Eagles were bundled out for a mere 115 in 27.1 overs with Saad Ali (26) and Adnan Danish (22) making small contributions with the bat. Afsareem Hussain was the pick of the bowlers taking three wickets.

In another match, Jibran Khan picked up a five-wicket haul to bowl Peshawar Panthers to a 21-run win against Abbottabad.
