Karachi Port Trust won the title, defeating National Bank 2–1 in the final at the KPT Stadium. [6] [7] Khan Research Laboratories beat Balochistan 8–0 to claim third place. [8]

Background and format

PFF introduced the KPT-PFF Cup as a new invitational tournament in early 2010. [2] The field comprised leading departmental sides from the previous Pakistan Premier League season, in addition to provincial associations, divided into four groups (A–D). Twenty of the scheduled 32 matches were played at the KPT Stadium and twelve at the Quaid-i-Azam football field in Steel Town, Karachi. [5]

Trials and selection for the provincial teams were conducted ahead of the event. [9] A minute of silence was also held for deceased player Abdul Khaliq. [10]
