KCA, Abahani post easy wins

Sports Reporter
Kalabagan Cricket Academy and Abahani secured comfortable wins in the ninth round of the Dhaka Premier League yesterday to further strengthen their position at the top of the table. Both the teams now have 14 points each, two behind leaders Prime Bank Cricket Club.
In the day's other game, Victoria Sporting Club beat a struggling Old DOHS by six wickets to continue their fight to enter the Super Six round.
Sabbir Rahman scored a fluent 73 in the battle of the Kalabagans at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium. Anamul Haque-led Kalabagan CA were reduced to 82 for 5 at the halfway mark and seemed to be in trouble. Sabbir however came in at number six and smacked two sixes and six fours to help his side stage the comeback. They ended up at 215 in 49.2 overs.
Anamul’s side carried on the momentum with their bowling as they took early wickets and applied the pressure on Abdur Razzak's Kalabagan Krira Chakra. The vanquished were eventually bundled out for just 178 in 45.4 overs.
At Fatullah, Abahani thumped Brothers Union by 69 runs. The game was initially supposed to be Aftab Ahmed's last domestic match. However, the former national player suffered a groin injury a day before the match and as a result his retirement had to be postponed. He might get an opportunity to officially call off his cricketing career in the next game.
Batting first Abahani were restricted to 191. Liton Kumar Das was the highest run-getter, scoring a 42-ball 40. In reply, Brothers were bowled out for 122 in 41.2 overs. Abahani's Nasir Hossain, who had earlier scored 26 runs with the bat,
took three wickets with the ball and was adjudged the player-of-the-match.
Old DOHS ended up losing their ninth game on the trot at the BKSP yesterday. Batting first in a game that was reduced to 34 overs per side due to the morning fog, DOHS posted 159. In reply, a half-century from Mahabubul Karim led Victoria to their target in 28.3 overs.
All the players and officials observed a minute's silence in all three matches in memory of Ahsan Zaheer, Bangladesh's first centurion, who passed away on Saturday.
