Playing at the West End Park International Cricket Stadium was a new and exciting experience for the entire squad. After gaining valuable experience in the first two matches, Zafran entered the third game with a better understanding of the conditions, including the pitch, dew, and movement under lights.

Zafran won the toss and elected to bat first. Junaid led the charge with a superb 72 off just 36 balls, helping Zafran post a competitive 113/5 in 10 overs.

The bowlers backed up the batting effort with disciplined performances, taking wickets at regular intervals and restricting the opposition to 78/7 to seal a comfortable 35-run victory. Junaid was deservedly named Player of the Match for his match-winning innings.

A special appreciation goes to Captain Azhar Hussain for staying true to the club's values. Rather than searching for outside talent whenever tournaments arrive, he continues to back the same group of players who have represented the club throughout the season.

This philosophy ensures that loyal and regular players are never left behind for short-term success. It is not just a strategy - it is part of Zafran's DNA.

Whether it is a QCA tournament, the Kashmir Cup, or even a friendly match, Zafran Cricket Club proudly fields the same core squad. That commitment to loyalty, respect, dignity, and brotherhood is what truly makes the club special. More than a team, Zafran is a family, proving that success built on trust and unity is the most meaningful success of all.
