KARACHI, Feb 15: As expected the weather-ruined Faysal Bank Pentangular Cup fixture between Federal Areas and Sindh failed to produce a result on Wednesday after three blank days at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi killed all hopes of providing such an outcome, Just 56 overs were possible in the game when play long last began on the final day of the four-day match. In available period, Federal Areas scored 221-3 after skipper Rao Iftikhar won the toss.

Defending champions Sindh, who comfortably finished in the standings at the conclusion of the league phase of the competition, qualified for the final against Punjab. That tie will be played over five days at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore from Saturday.
