Played at Victoria Park, pitch 1
Report by Suhail Shahid
Great game played on rather cold and gloomy evening but match
was heated. Lot of cheering from boundary from our team. We won
comfortably with 1.2 overs to spare and with six wickets intact.
Fielding: Good fielding with an outstanding
catch by Junaid on the boundary diving forward. Two stretch catches
(left and right) by Ollie.
Bowling: We kept
pressure and they were never looking to run away. Sultan and Jabar
started with good pace, mixing fuller and short pitched deliveries.
Jabar made the first breakthrough, hitting top of the middle stump.
Then Jabar entered and got two wickets in the 1st over, which broke
their plan to accelerate. Overall great bowling, but too many wides
in the first game wohich we need to improve.
Batting: Shameer and Bilal started where they left last
year. Great 50 from Shahmeer, everyone contributed, keeping strike
rates over 155 percent individualy and then Jabar came and finished
in a flourish with 2 sixes and 2 fours with a strike rate of 275
percent.
