The winner of the tournament will also qualify for the departmental first-class tournament - President's Trophy Grade-I 2025-26.
The two teams have played eight three-day matches each and will get a chance to bag PKR 5 million if they win the final – a non-first-class four-day affair, while the runners up will bag PKR 2.5 million. Out of a total prize pot of 7.75 million, there will also be awards for individual performances.
In the Group stage, Sahir Associates topped the Group D by winning four matches, while two of their games were drawn. Their quarter final and semi final fixtures against Ghani institute and JDW Sugar Mills, respectively were drawn but they advanced to the next stage based on first innings lead both in the games.
