Villa Park destroyed AMSA by 137 runs; Hassan Bakhshi (4 wkts) led the bowling attack and earned MOM |
By Furqan Qureshi After the heart broken exit from the night tournament a night before, Villa Park re-focused and came back to fight AMSA at the Addison ground. VPCC was playing without 3 of the pace bowlers Fawad Agha, Muhammad Ahmed and Ahmad Bakhshi, VPCC won the toss and elected to bat first. Zeyad Imtiaz (56) and the old camper Navaid Ali (32) opened the innings for VPCC. Both batsmen played an excellent inning and gave a very strong opening partnership to VPCC. Zeyad was milking AMSA’s bowlers all over the ground, the breakthrough came for AMSA when Navaid was bowled by Basit Raza (2), now the dangerous Arif Hockla (27) came to the crease with Zeyad, but both batsmen can only add 10 runs to the partnership. This time Basit’s victim was Zeyad who was playing an excellent innings. Now the backbone of VPCC’s batting Haris Imtiaz (44) came to the crease, both Arif and Haris took the score from 96 to 175, Haris’s inning included 3 Fours and 3 huge Sixes. After Haris got bowled by Mazhar Tabrezi (4) Skipper Uzair Ali (1) came to the crease but was caught at the boundary by Kamal Baloch. Hassan Bakhshi (9), Mutaba Baqir (24), Arsalan Ali (1), Saad Ali (1) and Furqan Qureshi (1*) took the score to respectable 216, with 3.4 over’s remaining. |
