Federal Areas were the defending champions,[4] but they lost their first three matches of the tournament, therefore eliminating them from competition.[5] On 9 April 2019, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa beat Sindh by nine runs to advance to the final of the tournament.[6] The result meant that Baluchistan also progressed to the final, regardless of the outcome of their last match against Federal Areas.[7] Khyber Pakhtunkhwa won the tournament, to win their second title, after beating Balochistan by nine runs in the final.[8][9]
