Match Summary-CCC4 vs Leinster 6 (League match)

CCC4 started cautiously after losing the toss and being asked to bat first. A couple of our top order batsmen managed to score in the 20s but no substantial score was made.However, a few quick wickets soon put pressure back on CCC4, leaving us struggling at 106-5.

In this dire situation, Abdur and Khasif formed a crucial partnership. Their brilliant rotation of strike was key on a poor outfield where hitting boundaries seemed impossible. This strategic play helped stabilize the innings and ensured CCC4 breached the 200 mark for the first time this season.

CCC4 started the defence of 202 impressively with Nadeem and Abdur taking early wickets and maintained constant pressure on the opposition. Their efforts were followed by Shujaat, who delivered a game-changing over, taking two wickets and leaving the opposition reeling at 20-4.

The opposition managed to find some relief and attempted a recovery for a period, but our bowlers came back strong. They maintained their disciplined line and length, taking more wickets and ensuring the opposition never got back into the game. Shujaat and Abdur led the charge with 4 and 3 wickets respectively, Roy and Nadeem were very economical with one wicket each.This collective bowling performance was crucial in defense of our total, marking a significant victory consequently leading us to our first league win.

Notable Performances

Shujaat : 5-12-4
