ISLAMABAD, Oct 25: Karachi Harbour pulled off a stunning five-wicket victory over Islamabad at the Diamond Cricket Ground on Tuesday in the Quaid-i-Azam Trophy Silver League match, thanks to a hurricane knock by Agha Sabir.

Set a target of 193 for victory in 25 overs, the visiting side were home in 23.1 overs to score a remarkable victory.

Agha struck a marvellous 85 off just 65 balls to set the pace and hammered eight fours and three sixes in his innings.

Earlier, Islamabad who had begun the last day of the match at 244-3 went on to score 382, Bilal Asad completing his century after being 86 not out overnight.

But his partner Sufyan Munir was not as lucky and fell for 71.

Pacer Faraz Ahmed was the top Karachi bowler snapping up 4-85 while Khalid Latif captured three wickets.
