The teenaged Haider struck four sixes and one four off the 12 balls he faced before becoming one of fast bowler Dilbar Hussain's four victims.
The right-armer Dilbar bowled with sustained pace and guile to curtail the Zalmi batting onslaught in a three over spell which yielded�him four wickets for 24 runs.
Wiese took two wickets for 12 runs off his two overs.
Scores in brief: Peshawar Zalmi�132 for 7, 12 overs (Haider Ali 34, Tom Banton 34; Dilbar Hussain 4-24).
