MSC down archrivals Abahani
A magnificent century from Sharmin Akter Supta helped Mohammedan Sporting Club register a comfortable 39-run victory over archrivals Abahani Limited during their Premier Division Women’s Cricket League encounter at BKSP-3 in Savar yesterday.
Electing to bat, opener Supta was in fine touch as her 130-ball 100 alongside Salma Khatun’s 51-ball 52 in the middle proved crucial. Supta and Salma shared 74 runs among them for the fourth wicket to help Mohammedan post a challenging 245 for six.
After the exchange, Abahani fell short as the Dhanmondi-based outfit could only manage 206 in 45.4 overs with Sharmin Sultana top scoring for the side with 64 runs off 69 balls, however, none of the other batters were able to contribute significantly.
At BKSP-4, an unbeaten 49-ball 50 from Sultana Khatun ensured that Khelaghar Shamaj Kalyan Shamity were able to chase down Keraniganj Cricket Academy’s 120-run total in just 24.1 overs with six wickets to spare.
