As is often the case in these three day games this game ended in a draw.
Khost's innings was held together by Sadam Mangal who scored 110 of the 177 runs they scored on the final day. Khost managed to post 308 in their second innings despite 5 batsmen being sent back on ducks.
A further 4 batsmen went in single figures for Kunduz and hands were shaken with them on 112/5.
Kunduz finish the second round of fixtures in second place with Khost, who did look more impressive across the whole match, in second.
