SPORTS REPORTER
Mohammedan Sporting Club closed in on an easy win against Uttara Sporting Club while holders Victoria Sporting were on the verge of a first-innings lead against Abahani Krira Chakra at the end of second day's play in their respective matches of the GrameenPhone Premier Division Super League yesterday.
Title aspirants Mohammedan tightened the noose on Uttara at the BKSP ground in Savar and were only five wickets away to earn full six points from their third Super League games.
Resuming the day on 47-1, Uttara followed on after they were bundled out 178 while replying to a huge Mohammedan total of 412-9 declared.
Batting for a second time on the day, the new town outfit found themselves reeling at 127-5, still needing another 107 runs to avoid an innings defeat with two more days to go.
Off-spinner Naimur Rahman and paceman Anwar Hossain Monir destroyed the Uttara batting after opener Shafiul Alam departed for 63.
Naimur captured four wickets for 44 runs while Monir finished with 339.
Naimur also took two wickets in the second innings after experienced paceman Hasibul Hossain struck early.
Away at the Fatullah Cricket Stadium, leaders Victoria restricted Abahani to 229-9 in 88 overs defending a fighting first innings total of 342.
Resuming on 326, Victoria added 12 runs before being all out in 98.4 overs.
Abahani, in their chase, lost half their wickets for 82 runs before Sajjadul and Neeyamur Rashid led a salvage operation.
Sajjadul scored an unbeaten 66 off 204 balls that included seven boundaries. Neeyamur hammered a breezy 41 off 44 balls. He struck eight hits across the rope.
Ali Arman also scored 30 off 48 balls. But with only one wicket in hand, Abahani look unlikely to wipe the deficit of more than 100 runs when Sajjadul resumes the innings with number eleven Alamgir.
At the Dhanmondi Cricket Stadium, City Club took a first innings lead of 65 runs against Brothers Union.
Brothers were bowled out for 230 in response to City's 295.
City Club were 52 for no loss in their second essay with Faruque Ahmed was batting on 27 along with prolific opener Moniruzzaman, who scored 20.
