Bangladesh Seniors beat Selex by 11 runs to emerge the winners in the Division A final in the QCA T20 Cricket Tournament, with Rashid producing an excellent all-round display (39 runs and three wickets).
Batting first, Bangladesh Seniors managed to get a fighting 153 for six on the board as Liton slammed a fine unbeaten half-century. He cracked three sixes and two boundaries in his 55-ball knock of 54 not out.
Liton inspired two useful stands for the team. First, he and Roman (17 in 23 balls) collected 45 runs for the second wicket after their skipper Titu was dismissed off the very first ball by Sherin.
Then he and Rashid added 50 runs for the fourth wicket to take the score to 108 before the latter was sent back by Sherin for 39. Rashid clobbered fives sixes to get 39 in 20 balls. Liton continued to dig in and guided the team past the 150-mark.
Selex could not get the going smooth, losing players at regular intervals to Shihab and Rashid, who shared six wickets to restrict them at 142. Shahid offered the strongest resistance and hit 26 with a six and three fours in 19 balls.
Shihab (19 with a six and two fours), Amir (19 with a six and two fours), Afnas (18 with two fours) and Ashif (18 with a six) got good starts but neither could build his innings and provide the much-needed support.
Shihab, who was declared the Player of the Final, grabbed three wickets for 14. Rashid’s haul cost him 28 runs, while Riffat picked two for 26 and Jiku got one for 37.Brief scoresDivision A FINAL
