Dhaka Premier Super League

Losses for top two

Cricket

Sports Reporter
Mohammedan Sporting Club and Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi Club kept the top two of the Dhaka Premier Super League honest by beating them yesterday.
Old DOHS, the table-toppers with 18 points, are still on top but Mohammedan struck them down by five wickets while Victoria Sporting Club lost by nine runs to the Dhanmondi outfit. It was also learnt that Shakib Al Hasan suffered a groin injury.
In the day's other game, Gazi Tank Cricketers beat Abahani by five runs in a tense game at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur.
OLDDOHS-MSC
A stiff target of 255 was set by Old DOHS at the BKSP ground to put Mohammedan, which entered the Super League as the sixth side, in trouble.
They made a poor start, losing Imtiaz Ahmed for two but the other opener Imrul Kayes added 76 quickly with young Pakistani Babar Azam. The left-hander struck a boundary and three sixes in his 56-ball 48 before falling to Enamul Haque Jr to make it 93 for two in the 19th over.
Azam continued the good work with skipper Naeem Islam. The 17-year-old struck eight boundaries in his 83-ball 72. The
pair added 61 before Azam fell but Naeem carried on and finished the job in the 49th over. Rajin Saleh, in between, hammered a couple of fours and sixes in his 39, before Golam Mabud and Naeem saw them home.
It was their sixth win while Old DOHS suffered their second defeat.
Earlier, three batsman scored fifties for the DOHS — Ziaur Rahman, Saeed Anwar Jr and Adnan Raza — but none carried on to a bigger score as they ended with254-7 in 50 overs.
SHEIKH JAMAL-VICTORIA
Captain Mushfiqur Rahim struck his fourth century in the Dhaka Premier League which in turn helped Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi Club to their sixth win in the competition. Victoria Sporting Club remained in second position as they lost their third game in eleven outings altogether.
Batting first, the Dhanmondi outfit made 287-6 at the Fatullah Cricket Stadium. The national skipper, who came in to bat at No 4 and saw his side losing three quick wickets, added 219 runs for the fourth wicket with Mahmudul Hasan, who made 74 off 68 balls with the help of eleven boundaries.
Mushfiqur also hammered eleven fours, but added two sixes, in his 118-ball 114 which ended when Mosharraf Hossain got his wicket in the slog overs.
It was a stiff chase for Victoria and though almost every one of the batsmen contributed,
it wasn't enough and despite a late try by Shakib Al Hasan, whomade33off29 balls at No 7, they ended up losing.
For the Dhanmondi outfit, Arafat Sunny and the newly-married Shamsur Rahman took three wickets each.
GAZI-ABAHANI
Batting first, Gazi Tank rode on a Ill-run fourth wicket stand between skipper Alok Kapali and Usman Salahuddin, both of whom hammered half-centuries. From 43 for three the pair took the total to a solid base in the 38th over. Another 45 runs were added between the 21-year-old Pakistani international and Mominul Haque, who then provided the final flourish with Nazmul Hossain.
Abahani were on track through an 82-run fourth wicket stand between Farhad Hossain and Mahmudullah Riyad but they failed to capitalise and it was a late-order collapse, mostly inflicted by four-wicket hero Alauddin Babu, that sealed the deal.
