Pegasus down to First Division

Sports Reporter
City Club's maiden Premier League win hastened Young Pegasus's plunge into First Division Cricket after a 26-run defeat at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur yesterday.
Young Pegasus failed to repeat their rescue act of last year as they folded for 229 runs in 47.1 overs in reply to City's 255 for eight.
Both clubs will play in the lower division next season. In 2007-08, Pegasus fended off Sonargaon Cricketers (now known as MotijheelT&T Club) and Kalabagan Krira Chakra in the relegationleague.
Jupiter Ghosh and Pegasus's Pakistani recruit Faisal Javed gave them the perfect start in the chase, adding 101 for the first wicket in just 21 overs. But as soon as the stand was broken, Arman Haider laid into the middle-order, snapping up three wickets for 23 from his ten overs. Rasel Al Mamun also took two wickets as the Mohammadpur-based club gave in to their fate.
Golam Hossain also took two wickets while Shafaq Al Jabir, Sirajullah Khadem and Rashedul Islam all took a wicket each.
Jubair Ahmed smashed three boundaries and a six in his 41 -ball 37 while Iftekhar Nayeem added to the late drama but when he was caught off left-arm pacer Khadem. Pegasus were bowled outwith 17 balls to spare.
City's wicketkeeper-batsman Rabiul Karim ensured nothing

went wrong for the Pallabi-based club with a prolonged stay at the crease. But the doughty right-hander missed a century by just three runs when he was trapped in front by Jubair Ahmed for 97 off 126 balls. He found good support from opener Mayshukur Rahman, who hit 81 off 133 balls with a couple of boundaries and a six. The two shared 184 runs for the second wicket but once Mayshukur fell, the City innings faded away as they were stopped at 255 runs.
Jubair took four for 61 from nine overs while Rubaiyat Haq, Abul Bashar and Faisal Javed all took a wicket each.
