Allied Bank then bounced back in style and hammered a hat-trick of goals through Saqib (two goals) and Mumtaz Abbas (one goal) to level the score 4-4. In the fourth and decisive chukker, it were once again Green Orchard who converted two more goals to take 6-4 lead and were looking favourites to win the encounter but Saqib Khakwani came from behind and thwarted three back-to-back field goals to win the match for Allied Bank with narrow 7-6 margin.
