Norway triumphed over Turkey by 7 wickets in a swift and decisive match. Muhammad Fahad was the standout performer for Turkey with a brisk half-century, while Hayatullah Niazi's impressive bowling for Norway was instrumental in their victory. Khizer Ahmed's all-round fielding performance, including three catches and involvement in two run-outs, was pivotal. Norway chased down Turkey's target with ease, thanks to aggressive batting from Walid Ghauri and Wahidullah Sahak.
The match began with Norway winning the toss and opting to bowl first. Turkey's innings started with a struggle as they lost early wickets. Ilyas Ataullah fell for just 2 runs, caught by Khizer Ahmed off Ahmadullah Shinwari. The only notable resistance came from Muhammad Fahad, who played an aggressive innings scoring 52 runs off 34 balls, including six fours and three sixes.
However, Turkey's batting lineup crumbled around Fahad, with no other batsman managing to reach double figures except Mecit Ozturk (17 runs) and Mertcan Donmez (10 not out). Hayatullah Niazi was the pick of the Norwegian bowlers, claiming 3 wickets for just 18 runs in his four overs. Muhammad Butt also contributed significantly with two wickets for 11 runs.

In response, Norway's chase was spearheaded by Walid Ghauri who scored a quickfire 40 off just 21 balls, including three towering sixes. Wahidullah Sahak supported well with a rapid 20 off 10 balls. Despite losing three wickets, Norway comfortably reached the target in just 9.1 overs with Khizer Ahmed (24 not out) ensuring there were no further hiccups.
