Formation of above species is more favourable. The stability order of carbocations is
Now, carbocation formed is

s p^{2}

hybridised that is triangular planar as shown below
Either the

C l^{⊖}

attack from above or below formation of the plane of the molecule, so there is probability of resultant product as shown below i.e., both product will form
