At the outset, Farhan seized a commendable 2-0 lead over Waqas in the best of five final taking the first and second games 11-9, 11-9 in seven minutes apiece but was not convincing as he faltered by hitting the tin time and again and saw the lead slipped from his hands. He led 6-1 in the first game.
However, Waqas took advantage of his opponents' unforced errors and minimised the lead. He drew level at 9-9 before Farhan won the opener 11-9. Similarly, both were tied 6-6 and 9-9 in the second before Farhan consolidate his position winning 11-9.
Waqas, who won the boys U-17 crown in the inaugural event, fought back with vengeance and neutralised the lead taking the next two games 13-11 in 10 minutes and 11-8 in seven minutes.
Farhan, however, opened the fifth and deciding game in convincing fashion and surged to 6-0 lead before wrapping up the game 11-9 in eight minutes.
