Opener Muneeba Ali's 108 runs helped PCB Challengers to a 42-run win over PCB Dynamites in the third match of the National Triangular T20 Women's Cricket Championship on Saturday.

The left-handed batter struck 17 fours and a towering six in 69 balls after Challengers' captain Bismah Maroof elected to bat after winning the toss. Over the course of her innings, Muneeba stitched a profound 118-run stand for the second wicket with her captain helping Challengers to post a daunting 182 for three in 20 overs.

Bismah scored 32 off 31, hitting one four and one six, while all-rounder Nida Dar smashed a quick fire 14-ball 29 not out, studded with four fours and a six. The only bowler to pick up a wicket in Challengers' innings was Sana Mir, who returned one for 44 in four overs, as Ayesha Zafar (three) and Muneeba were run-out.

Left-arm orthodox Sadiq Iqbal took three wickets for 20 runs in three overs in Dynamites' reply which restricted the Nahida Khan-led unit to 140 for five in 20 overs.

With a 30-ball 38, which included four fours and a six, Iram Javed was the highest scorer for Dynamites, while Nahida and Kainat Hafeez scored 36 and 26 respectively.

Challengers' Saba Nazir and Nida Dar were the other wicket-takers as both spinners took a wicket each.

For her match-winning knock, Muneeba bagged the player of the match award.

Scores in brief: PCB Challengers 182-3, 20 overs; PCB Dynamites 140-5, 20.
