Second seed Aamir, the defending champion, needed only four games to see off qualifier Nosherwan Khan 11-7, 11-3, 9-11, 11-9.<\/p>\n
But his younger brother Danish was taken the full distance before finally overcoming former champion Mansoor Zaman, also from Peshawar and also a qualifier, 13-11, 8-11, 7-11, 11-1, 12-10.<\/p>\n
Top seed Nasir Iqbal was also stretched to the limit before getting the better of fellow Pakistani Muhammad Saqib Yousaf 12-14, 11-4, 11-7, 9-11, 11-8.\n<\/p>\n
The 19-year-old world No49 will now face fourth seed Farhan Zaman who made the last four after his namesake Farhan Mehboob retired injured after just two games, the score standing at 11-6, 12-10.<\/p>\n
